Imagine a time when sending a message across the country took days or even weeks. Fanny Green helped transform the way people communicated by working at the Point Lonsdale Telegraph Station, where she sent and received messages using Morse code. Her skill and dedication helped information travel across vast distances in a matter of minutes, connecting communities and supporting the growing communication network of colonial Australia. Through her work, Fanny became an important figure in the development of modern communication and left a lasting mark on Australia's history.
