Mrs Felton Mathew, on a
visit to Marramarra Creek with her surveyor husband on 3 rd August
writes “then appeared a miserable hut of rough logs covered with bark, from
whence issued a number of dogs barking … and then the inhabitants; two old men
and a woman with child in her arms … These dreary solitudes might serve for the
abode of a misanthrope so utterly are they secluded from all approach and so
entirely destitute of all comfort” .
