She eventually moved to Kangaroo Island with Christopher (her partner) where they have a small holding.

Joan is a daughter of William Richard & Doris Mabel (Wells) Bernard and  was born  at Salinos, California, USA.  Robert lived and worked on Nundora Station, but eventually moved to the South East of South Australia where he and Joan have a property.
