Jonathan and Margaret Young lived on Umbercollie, a station near where James Mark’s son was murdered by the Bigambul.  Subsequently, many Aboriginal people were killed on their station.  Margaret kept a journal which, although flawed, is an invaluable record of the murders that occurred between 1847 and 1849.  This episode provides the background to Jonathan and Margaret prior to the first murder.
