James Wandin (28 July 1933 – 20 February 2006),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=James Wandin - Player Bio )〕 also known as Jim, Jimmy, or Juby, was the ngurungaeta of the Wurundjeri till his death in February 2006. He was the first Australian rules footballer of Aboriginal descent to play with St Kilda Football Club in 1952–1953.〔Kath Gannaway, ''(Fitting tribute to legend )'', Star News Group, 20 May 2008. Accessed 1 November 2008〕 ==Family== James Wandin was a great-great nephew to William Barak, the last ''traditional'' ngurungaeta of the Wurundjeri-willam clan. He was the last person born at Coranderrk Station, in 1933, in the home of his grandmother, Jemima Wandin.〔Meyer Eidelson, ''The Footballer, First in the league'', in ''(Walks in Port Phillip. A guide to the cultural landscapes of a City )'', Accessed 1 November 2008〕 When the Station was closed in 1923 Jemima Wandin was one of 5 elderly people who refused to leave. She is buried in the Coranderrk Cemetery. His father, Jarlo Wandoon, tried to enlist for World War I, but was rejected due to being an Aboriginal. When he attempted to enlist under his whitefella name, James Wandin, he was accepted into the army and served in France and is listed under that name on the honour roll in the Healesville RSL. On returning home, Jarlo Wandoon had to get permission from the police to visit his mother, was escorted onto Coranderrk, and was only allowed half an hour with her before he was sent to off to the Lake Tyers Mission in Gippsland. Much of Coranderrk was divided up and sold for soldier settlement allotments. Jarlo found work with the Postmaster-General's Department, and was able to buy a block of land at Healesville – a home for his family on Wurundjeri land.〔Joy Murphy, ''(Voices of Coranderrk )'', Australian Broadcasting Corporation, Mission Voices, Text and audio files.
