Talk:Ada Augusta Holman

Latest comment: 8 years ago by Kerry Raymond


I wonder if this would be better at Ada Augusta Holman (or Ada Holman) - Google Books turns up ten times as many hits for "Ada Holman" as "Ada Kidgell" (which is what I would have assumed, too). State Library turns up hits for Holman, not Kidgell, as well. The Drover's Wife (talk) 13:39, 4 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

Yeah, I think so too. The original article title was just the redlink I came from, her uncle James Kidgell, a Qld MLA, in case you are wondering why I am straying south of the Qld border today :-) I have set up a number of variations of her name as redirects. She continued to publish after her marriage under Kidgell though, so as a journalist she may be better known by that name, but her later books are published under Holman. There's a truckload of short stories in the digitised newspapers by "Ada A. Kidgell" too. Kerry (talk) 14:24, 4 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
