Talk:Roger Goldsworthy

Untitled
Some other information that probably should be included in the article in order to ensure completeness: In 1886 The Australian Race by E. M. Curr was published. It included the vocabularies of various Aboriginal tribes [sic]. Three of these vocabularies were attributed to Goldsworthy: 100 words. 111 words. From an anthopological point of view, these early records are extremely important resources. The apparent fact that Goldsworthy took the trouble to record the vocabularies of the indigenous peoples of Western Australia gives a fresh insight into the man. On the other hand, a number of other contributors to Curr's book also served as Colonial Secretary of Western Australia, so perhaps these entries are merely extracts from the records of the office of Colonial Secretary. Goldsworthy had left Australia six years before the publication of the book, so I think the latter is more likely. Hesperian 01:56, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
