Sarah Hang Gong
Sarah and Lee Hang Gong had six children and came to Palmerston, Northern Territory around 1881 where Hang Gong established a business in Southport and Palmerston. Sarah was first mentioned in the Territory records as the midwife/nurse who registered the birth of a child to Southport stonemason family. Then she became known as a lobbyist to the Government Resident asking for work as court interpreters for her sons. When her husband died in Palmerston in 1892 Sarah continued her midwifery and nursing work, her name appears in several Territorians' birth registers as the nurse in attendance. She took an active interest in politics and was one of the supporters of Charles Herbert who was running for the Territory seat in South Australian parliament. She lived in a small house behind the family store in Cavenagh Street from which she continued practising her midwifery until she became partially paralysed and was cared for by her children.MidwifeInterpreterEnglis
