Australian Heritage

[edit]

What does the phrase "Australian Heritage" mean? It is used several times, and it is not clear whether it means he was raised in Australia, or his parent(s) were Australian. At the date of his birth, Australia was not a country as such, but was made up of separate British colonies. It would only be federates 4-5 years later, and even then, the term Australian is somewhat ambiguous. And given the youth of the nation, the term "Australian" almost implies "Australian aboriginal"... was that what is meant? In any case, clarification would help this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.63.181.158 (talk) 20:09, 20 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Hmmm, there are complications here this Yank was unaware of. I used "Australian heritage" because I could not tell Brewster-Joske's nationality from the sources I found. I doubt he was aborigine, and I don't think we can call him a citizen of Fiji. I think I shall plead for an Aussie to repair this. Georgejdorner (talk) 21:30, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
