The isolated life of lighthouse families in 1966 | RetroFocus
This episode of 'Weekend Magazine' follows the families of lighthouse keepers living on two remote Tasmanian islands.
Accessing the rugged Maatsuyker and Tasman Islands from the MV Cape Pillar was just the first challenge, in what would be years of isolation. Children were educated via correspondence, and families had to fend for themselves as rough seas often meant delays in supplies.
This program aired on ABC Television on 31 March 1966.
