Talk:Ernestine Hill

Ernestine Hill's marital status
The Wikipedia article refers to a husband who died in 1933 but gives no other details. The entry on Hill in the Australian Dictionary of Biography makes no reference to a husband and discusses her relationship with R. C. Packer using her original surname of Hemmings:

In Sydney in early 1919 Hemmings entered the world of journalism as secretary to J. F. Archibald, literary editor of     Smith's Weekly of which she subsequently became a sub-editor. There began her association with R. C. Packer, the newspaper's manager. On 30 October 1924—'the happiest day of my life'—her son Robert was born. He was rumoured to be     Packer's son, although he was never publicly acknowledged by him. Ernestine assumed the surname Hill.

The Wikipedia article is somewhat sketchy and needs filling out, perhaps using material from the ADB, assuming that to be more or less authoritative.
