Watkins. Nancy Watkins first went to Papua with Alwyn Edward (Bud) Watkins in 1934. She spent approximately nine of the next thirteen years living in the territory. The story gives some insight into the day-to-day lives of the women who accompanied their husbands to Papua. Nancy wrote many long letter/diaries to her own mother whilst she lived in Papua but these letters no longer exist. Peter Watkins persuaded his mother to remember as much of her life in Papua as possible and commit it to paper. My Papuan Years is the result of Nancy’s notes and Peter’s discussions with her prompting her memory prior to her death in 1997.  aElectronic reproduction:bCanberra :cPacific Manuscripts Bureau, d2016  bNerang, N.S.W.cAustralia  aAvailable for reference.uhttp://asiapacific.anu.edu.au/pambu/copyright.php0 aNancy Beryl Watkins, nee Morgan, was born at Port Pirie, South Australia and died at Nerang, Queensland on 19 June 1997.
