From the battle fields in the Fujian Province of South Eastern China to the Australian outback settlements of Colonial New South Wales, during the nineteenth century, was a quantum leap for Huang Ta.
Fleeing from the death and destruction, caused by the Taiping rebellion and civil war raging around his hometown of Amoy, the Australian rural scene looked like utopia by comparison.
He embraced his new found country and was determined to make the most of the situation in which he now found himself.
Having been assigned a position as a shepherd on a sheep station, he couldn't believe his luck on finding the love of his life after meeting Isabelle. She was employed by the owners wife as a servant at the main homestead. It wouldn't be long before they became lovers. Mixed race marriages were not allowed by law or the church at the time. They made the best of an uncertain situation and were to go on to raise a family, and eventually become landowners in their own right, before they were allowed to marry.
