Countess Billie
by Leonard Boucher

Countess Billie was the first European woman to enter what was then Rhodesia - Now Zimbabwe. She was disguised as a boy and posed as the male companion of the Counte de la Panouse.
This is her story.
I first became acquainted with the Countess when, as a guest with the Zimbabwe History Society (formerly the Rhodesia History Society) I visited the home of Robert Isaacson situated on Avondale Ridge some fourteen miles outside Harare. There, in the beautifully set-out garden overlooking the hills separating Avondale from Harare, Robert spoke to our group of the adventures, courage and intrepidity of Fanny Pearson who became Countess Billie. It was on the site of Robert's house that Billie and the Vicomte de la Panouse had built three small stone living quarters and on the adjacent land had established a prosperous farm.
Sorry, your browser doesn't support Java(TM).
Soon after their first meeting, Fanny, an attractive young lady of eighteen, and Edmond became lovers. As the date of Edmond's departure grew near they knew they were passionately in love, but Edmond had to leave and there was a strict rule at that time that women and children were not allowed to enter Mashonaland; it was newly opened territory, life there was rough and tough, and even some of the most sturdy men - the first pioneers - had quickly given up and returned to a more comfortable life in South Africa. Fanny was not to be put off by thoughts of dangerous wild animals, hostile natives, the burning hot sun or any lack of civilized amenities. She would, she said, cross the border disguised as a man and she would change her name to Billie.

Rhodesia: Unilateral Declaration of Independence Documents, 1965

Prime Minister Ian Smith : Announcement of Unilateral Declaration of Independence, November 11, 1965 Now I would like to say a few words to you. Today, now that the final stalemate in negotiations has become evident, the end of the road has been reached. It has become abundantly clear that it is the policy of the British Government to play us along with no real intention of arriving at a solution which we could possibly accept. Indeed, in the latest verbal and confidential message delivered to me last night we find that on the main principle which is in dispute the two Governments have moved further apart. I promised the people of this country that I would continue to negotiate to the bitter end and that I would leave no stone unturned in my endeavours to secure an honourable and mutually accepted settlement.

You are welcome visitor What's the weather like here and at home? Rhodesia the Beautiful Return to top Recent news may make some people think that our homeland is not a good place to visit. True, while Mugabe remains in power, a visit might not be advisable, but please don't forget that nature has been kind to us and so our country remains a beautiful place. The scenery is still outstanding, the wildlife still wonderful, and if ever the economy returns to normalcy, it would still be a great holiday destination. Amongst it's many scenic attractions are:
  • The Victoria Falls
    The Great Zimbabwe

    Rhodesia's modern name is derived from this sprawling archipelago of carefully hewn stone, seen by many as conclusive evidence of a sophisticated African civilisation which reached its apex long before the arrival of the white man. Modern dating techniques suggest that the city dates back to around AD 1200, and thrived for three or four centuries before being abandoned. It was within this strange site that the 'Zimbabwe Bird' was first discovered, carved from stone and shown on every one of the nation's flags from the end of the colonial period.

    History of Zimbabwe and its flags
    The land was administered from 1890 by the British South Africa Company The first flag of sovereignty flown in what is now Zimbabwe was the British Union Flag (Union Jack) raised at Fort Salisbury on 13 September 1890, which marked the beginning of prolonged British influence in the region. Instrumental in bringing European pioneers to the area was the 19th century British imperialist and financier, Cecil John Rhodes, whose British South African Company (BSACo) was later given prospecting and mining rights by the Matabele king, Lobengula. The company's own flag had not been received from England when the Pioneer Column set out from South Africa, so a Union Jack was carried instead, the first company flag only arriving in Fort Salisbury in 1892.
    The flag of the BSACo was raised in the Matabele capital of Bulawayo on 4 November 1893 after the Company's forces led by Major Patrick Forbes drove the native Ndebele from the town. The flag consisted of a Union Jack emblazoned with the BSACo badge in the centre.

    The Black Man's Burden: The White Man in Africa to World War I
    Chapter 4
    The Story of Southern Rhodesia
    T he portion of the Continent south of the Zambesi is with some exceptions suitable for settlement by white races, so far as the climate is concerned. The exceptions are the vicinity of the Zambesi itself, the desert and waterless coast regions of Damaraland, and a fairly wide belt of Portuguese territory on the East Coast. The whites are, however, incapable, save in a very limited degree, of performing the more arduous forms of manual labour. The actual development of the country, both agricultural and mineral must depend, therefore, either upon African labour or upon imported Asiatic labour to which the whites are opposed for various reasons, which need not here be discussed. For a century the healthy tablelands and plateaux of this region have been the scene of the kind of racial conflict which occurs when an invading race, of a higher culture than the aboriginal population and possessed of superior offensive and defensive weapons, disputes with the latter for the occupation of the land. Natural man presently finds himself threatened in his liberties. Civilised man is filled with the terror which comes from the knowledge of overwhelming odds. Mutual fears inspire reciprocal cruelties. "The Kaffirs had ample justification of the war into which they rushed with such fatal imprudence ... urged to revenge and desperation by the systematic injustice of which they had been the victims ... the original justice is on the side of the conquered, not of the victorious party."

    African History
    Sourcebook Africa is both the most clearly defined of continents - in its geography - and the hardest to pin down in historical terms. Human beings originated in Africa and, as a result, there is more diversity of human types and societies than anywhere else. It is not possible, in any non-ideological way, to claim any one of these peoples or societies as more essentially "African" than others; nor is it possible to exclude a given society as "not really African". On this site historical sources on the history of human societies in the continent of Africa are presented, when available, without making prejudgements about what is "African". This page is a subset of texts derived from the three major online Sourcebooks listed below. For more contextual information, for instance about the Islamic world, check out these web sites. Notes: In addition to direct links to documents, links are made to a number of other web resources.

    History of the Northern Rhodesia Protectorate, 1924-1939
    In 1924, The British Colonial Office took over the administration of Northern Rhodesia from the British South Africa Company. Sir HERBERT STANLEY was appointed the first British governor, with residence in Livingstone.
    The Colonial Office promoted the immigration of white settlers, reserving stretches of farmland for them. Immigration was not satisfactory; the country's major industry was copper mining, picking up in the 1920es. The Great Depression resulted in sharply declining prices for copper (1931-1933), which affected Northern Rhodesia. Yet, copper production still increased. In 1935 Northern Rhodesia was the scene of a labour dispute, a strike in the Copper Belt. In the 1930es, a second axis, the GREAT EAST ROAD, had been constructed, connecting Nyasaland with the Great North Road; where these roads met lay the city of LUSAKA. In 1935, the colony's capital was moved there, from Livingstone.
    The discussion of plans for the settlement in Northern Rhodesia of European Jews fleeing political repression were intensified in the aftermath of the so-called 'Kristallnacht', a massive anti-Jewish pogrom launched by Nazi organizations on November 9th 1938. Overall, an estimated 250 Jews found their way to the landlocked British protectorate.
