Biography
Born about 1807, Tanlebonyer had 2 sisters, Tekartee and Mirnemammerme. She was abducted by a sealer, John (Jack) Brown, but he had sent her off to other island-based sealers before he was drowned at Clarke Island, one of the Furneaux Group in the Bass Strait [1].
The year of her birth is based on being aged 23 in 1830 [2]. This reference also indicates that "she was a Loontiteermairreloinner clanswoman from Little Swanport located within the Oyster Bay nation". Little Swanport is on the east coast of Tasmania north of Hobart.
She was brought by sealer James Parish to join George Augustus Robinson, who gave her the name Maria, in October 1830 in Launceston, Tasmania.
Earlier, James Parish had been invovled in abducting the mother, Tanganutura, of Fanny Cochrane Smith. It was in the same year of 1830 that Tanlebonyer became the second wife of Mannalargenna on Swan Island. Reference.1 suggests it was after October 1830, and Reference.2 has that "she became Mannalargenna's second wife sometime after arriving on Swan Island and before being exiled on Gun Carriage Island in late December 1830".
In August 1831, she was with her husband accompanying Robinson in a search for any remaining groups of Aboriginals in northeast Tasmania. She continued with them as a guide around Tasmania from 1831 to 1835, but became ill in Hobart Town and passed away on 1 May 1835 aged 28, 7 months before Mannalargenna, who was aged about 60.
Research Notes
Tanalipunya [Say Tah nah lee pu nyah] (Tanleboneyer; Sal) was abducted from Little Swanport with her two sisters. Her captor prostituted her to other sealers for a fee of one kangaroo skin for a night. In 1830 she was taken from the islands with two other women to act as guides to the soldiers for the Black Line. Robinson then took her as one of his guides. During this time she became wife to Manalakina [Say: Mah nah lah kee nah] (Mannalargenna), a chief of the north eastern people. Tanalipunya died in 1835.
