A discussion of louisa lawson

Everyone says that louisa lawson was just the first australian femenist. But she was more than that she was a mother. She gave birth to more than 1 son and her eldest was called henry lawson. But did they hate each other?

She cut Henry out of her will, while leaving her small estate to other children of hers. But it's hard to know whether she hated him, or he her. I doubt that there is much evidence of that. Alpheus 20:28, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What's the relevance?

The article says "For the women at the time universal suffrage was not the key issue, Lawson did not criticise the government for failing to give Indigenous Australians the vote." So what? She worked for women's suffrage. Saying she did not criticise anything not connected to women's suffrage seems very peculiar to me. And it is not referenced. Comments?

Photos of the Louisa Lawson Reserve and the Mosaic

Would be good if someone in Sydney could get some photos of the mosaic and freely license them so they could be added here.

Memorial in King's Domain

Can anyone confirm whether this was ever built? If yes, a photo and details would be good. If it no longer exists was it demolished or removed?
