Seeking info on Beatrice Grimshaw

I am researching the life of the writer and traveller Beatrice Grimshaw.

She was born at “Cloona”, near Dunmurry, outside Belfast in 1870 and died at Bathurst, New South Wales, Australia in 1953.

A prolific author of novels and guidebooks, she travelled widely through the South Sea Islands, living for 27 years on Papua New Guinea.
