Turo Downs Aboriginal man comes from Queensland to live in Brisbane Waters at
Hardy’s Bay. Turo became an employee of Captain Anderson. A great swimmer and
runner, he impresses those who see him when he dives from the rocks at Kilcare
Beach to emerge with a lobster. He is remembered as a gentleman, astute,
polite, and with good English. He is buried at Kincumber Churchyard where a
stone bears tribute “respected by all”. He dies in 1942 aged 86.
