28 facts

Predicate	Value	Ref
Has Label	Attack on Europeans/others - Henry Sinclair and James Gordon, Cumberland Island (16 October 1859)	[1]
Has Location Description	Cumberland Island	[1]
Has Location Notes Issues	Not sure where on the island they went ashore, so have mapped an arbitrary location on the southeastern coast of Cumberland Island	[1]
Has Location Type	Offshore island	[1]
Has Names of People Wounded and Details	Captain Henry Sinclair was hit by stones that caused him to bleed	[1]
Has Nature of Event	Attack on Europeans/others	[1]
Has No of People Wounded	1	[1]
Has Notes Comments	Note that the key pages of Gordon's diary have not been digitised in the NLA online version, so I have been reliant on information presented in Rowland (2020) (who clearly had seen the original copy). Sinclair was clearly very fearful of Aboriginal people and encouraged his men to fire on them at minor provocations, and so it is possible he did something to provoke this attack and it was actually a response. In turn, the Aboriginal people chasing Sinclair were fired upon, though it is not stated if any were hit.	[1]
