# Cape du Couedic Lighthouse (Kangaroo Island)

A lighthouse on the south-west of Kangaroo Island, South Australia — per family recollection, [Norman MacLeod's](/people/norman-macleod-b1880) posting in the late 1930s.

## Connection to the family

- [Cath](/people/catherine-mcleod-whillas-b1921) places her father [Norman](/people/norman-macleod-b1880) here from about 1936–40 (after Cape Northumberland), though the SA Archives hold no record of him after 1936.
- [Nan](/people/catherine-normandy-whillas-b1939) was born on Kangaroo Island on 26 May 1939, which ties in with a Cape du Couedic posting.
