Distinguished and Famous people from Dryandra Country
📖 Albert Facey
Albert Facey’s association with Dryandra Country is centred on Wickepin, where his family farmed before the Depression forced them to leave in 1934. His autobiography, A Fortunate Life, later reached an enormous readership with its account of hardship, work and persistence in Western Australia. The family’s modest homestead was preserved and relocated into Wickepin, giving visitors a physical connection with that rural chapter. Its scale suits the story: an ordinary working household became the setting behind an extraordinary publishing success.
