Actually, by your own admission, Esther Abrahams was the first (but there wasn't really an Australia then. Pre-Federation.)

She was the first woman to hold enough power to be able to be described as running the colony unofficially, though. There's a conspiracy tale in this...

Esther no has her own file in my cabinet, so I have somewhere to store the info I'm collecting.
