RITCHIE V. RITCHIE.
This is a suit for a divorce, brought by James Ritchie, of Fullerton, county of Georgiana, farm labourer, against his wife, Everline Ritchie, formerly Everline Sinclair.
Mr. Coutts, instructed by Mr. M'Culloch, appeared for petitioner to have the issues for trial settled. There was no appearance of respondent or counsel on her behalf.
From the documentary evidence read it appeared that the parties were married on February 29, 1871, at Jamberoo by the Rev. P. R. S. Bailey, Church of England minister. Petitioner is aged 33 years, a native of Fermanagh, Ireland. He was 16 years old when he came to this colony, and has resided at Bega, Jamberoo, and Fullerton. Respondent is 22 years, a native of Jamberoo, and now living with Charles Evison at Sydney. One male child has been the issue of the marriage. After the marriage the parties resided at Kiama and cohabited together up to February 17, 1874, upon which day Mrs. Ritchie left her home near Kiama ostensibly to go to Kiama to purchase a sewing machine, for which purpose her ; husband gave her a cheque for £8 12s. She said she would return at 3 o'clock, but she did not return. Subsequently it was discovered that she had gone to Sydney with a constable named Charles Evison, with whom she lived as his wife at Dowling-street, Woolloomooloo, and that after leaving that place in May, 1870, she went to the Benevolent Asylum for her confinement.
His Honor settled the issues for trial as to the questions of marriage, desertion, and adultery. Australian Town and Country Journal (NSW: 1870 - 1907) Saturday 17 November 1877

Louisa Mary Dargan gave evidence to the effect that she was in the employ of the Railway Department, being in charge of the Balgownie railway station. She occupied the gate house there rent free, and received 7s per week. Her husband left her without means of support for the past six months. He had been employed by the Railway Department, but was now retired on pension. Defendant had nobody to support but himself.
For the defence, Lawrence Dargan deposed he was a railway pensionor in receipt of 24s per week. He had no other means of support except what he occasionally earned. He made certain charges against his wife, which he contended should render him exempt from contributing to her support. ; Patrick Dargan and Mary Ellen Teresa M cTernan, son and daughter of defendant, also gave evidence for the defence.
His worship said he felt inclined to dismiss the case. However, he would make an order for the payment by defendant of 4s per week towards the support of his wife for 12 months, 6s court costs and £1 1s professional costs were also allowed, Illawarra Mercury (Wollongong, NSW : 1856 - 1950) Friday 12 July 1912 p 2

MRS. E. F. DAVIS.
Another well-known personality of the South Coast passed away on Monday, April 25th, in the person of Elizabeth Fenton Davis, relict of the late John Davis, formerly of Jamberoo. The deceased lady was in her 82nd year and retained all her faculties up till the time of her death.
Although not in robust health for the past year, death was not expected, but following the shock caused by the death of her son-in-law (the late Mr John Wilson) she seemed to fail rapidly. Born at Jamberoo she was the daughter of the late John Rob and was the sole living member of his family.
Some fifty three years ago she married a member of one of the oldest South Coast families in Mr John Davis; who predeceased her a few years ago.
Practically all their married life was spent in Jamberoo with the exception of the past 15 or 16 years after the death of Mr James Davis, the old couple made their home in Sydney, where all their family all reside. Mr John Davis felt the loss of his brother greatly and could not bear the old place after that event.
The late Mrs, Davis, was a member of the Church of England and always retained an interest in the old church at Jamberoo, where the musical abilities of her daughter's will still be remembered who were organists at the church for many years. She was happy in the care of her family each one giving devoted attention. She leaves three sons, Messrs, Albert, Charles and Lydon Davis, three daughters Mrs. J. Wilson, Mrs. Archie Alexander and Mrs T Coghlan as well as 32 grandchildren andthree greatgrandchildren
Followling as short service at home at Hurlstone Park, the remains were conveyed to the Sutherland cemetery she was laid to rest by ther side of her late husband. The Kiama Reporter and Illawarra Journal (NSW: 1899 - 1947) Wednesday 4 May 1932 p 2

Fifty years ago Mr. Richard Dawes was married to Miss Mary Pearson, fourth daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. James
Pearson, of Marshall Mount, near Dapto.
The ceremony took place in St. Luke's Church, Dapto, on February 12th, 1868, the officiating minister being the Rev. Mr. Rousell. Mr. and Mrs. Dawes spent about 19 years of their married life on the South Coast, and 31 years ago they came to the Richmond River and settled at Eltham, where they have lived ever since. Mr. and Mrs. Dawes may well be reckoned among the pioneers of the big scrub, and in the early times saw many hard and toilsome days. However, they faithfully faced the inevitable hardships, and in due time were able to provide a comfortable home in which they reared a large family, and have lived to see them all comfortably settled down in life. Mr. and Mrs. Dawes are old and honored members of the Methodist Church, and from its first inception have, with their family, been a tower of strength to the Methodist cause in Cowlong.

DEATH OF MRS. M. E. DAWES
The death occurred in Wollongong District Hospital on Jan. 4 of another well known resident, Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Dawes, aged 64 years, and incidentally this was the third bereavement in the Dawes' family in a briefperiod.
Deceased was a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Dawes, of Albion Park, and a member of one of its best known, and highly esteemed families.
After her marriage to Mr. George Dawes, of Marshall Mount, she spent a considerable period of her married life in that neighbourhood and later became a resident of Albion Park and more recently lived in Sydney.
However, since she some time ago became an invalid, she was brought back to Albion Park to be cared for by her sister, Mrs. M.Pearson.
Her worthy father had been a stalwart supporter of Albion Park Show Society and for long a member of its committee. Mrs. Dawes, too, gained a fine reputation for the manner in which she lent support to the same society, particularly, by her assistance at show time and at special functions during the year. Then her departure from the district was regarded as a great loss to it as she readily worked for any special effort of the district at large.
Mrs. Dawes is survived by three sons, Harold, Alan and Victor, her two daughters having predeceased her as did also her Husband.
Also resident in this town are two brothers of deceased, Norman who has just resigned from the show committee after 18 years service, and James, in addition to the sister, Mrs. M. Pearson, who is also well known.
The largely attended funeral on Tuesday afternoon, to Marshall Mount Methodist cemetery.
There were numerous floral tributes and the bereaved family were recipients of many messages of sympathy. Illawarra Mercury (Wollongong, NSW: 1856 - 1950) Thursday 15 January 1948 p 2

At the Wollongong Police Court yesterday William John Dawson was charged by Margaret Mary Dawson, his wife, with having left her without any means of support.
Mr. Russell for complainant, and Mr. Lysaght for defendant, who pleaded not guilty.
Complainant deposed that her husband was a miner, and that she was marriedto him at Wollongong, on the 9th May, 1891, by Father Ryan; her husband at that time was working ab Mount Kembla, and the first fortnight's pay he received after their marriage amounted to £6 ; her married life had been very unhappy about five months after her marriage defendant's ill-treatment began, and he was in the habit of shoving her about and calling her filthy names; from that time his ill-treatment increased, and he appeared to be jealous of ner, although she never gave him any occasion for it, and had always been a good, wife to him ; on one occasion he sat all night with a razor in his hand, and said he would cut her throat if she went to bed; on the day before their first child was born he made her get out of bed and blacken his boots ; on one occasion he caught her by the throat, and on another he hit her on the nose, she was now under the doctor's hands, suffering from an injury to the breast, caused by a blow from his fist ; he also tore his clothes off his back and frothed at the mouth with rage ; three nights before she finally left him he had a razor in his hand, with which he threatened to take her life, and she dared not go to bed on the morning she left she was unwell; he told her to get out of bed, and she replied that she was unable to do so, as she was sick; he told her that if she did not getb up he would drag her out of bed by the hair of the head, at the same time calling her foul names ; she got out, and fainted twice whilst getting his breakfast ; she afterwards took the two children and went to her father's house, as she was afraid of his violence; she was afraid of him now, and would not meet him for the world if she could help it; she left her home in August, since which time he had only contributed £1 towards her support ; he also, called their eldest child foul names; since defendant left the district he had been working at the Seaham colliery at Newcastle.
To Mr. Lysaght: I do not know what the average wages at Kembla are at present ; defendant appeared to be jealous of me ; if I spoke to any man I was bad ; I was always a good wife to him, and never gave him any cause for jealousy ; my mother kept a boarding house, and we lived with her for three years after our marriage; my husband… before we were married ;-I asked him to got a … to go and live in one in the bush, where he said he could kill me if he liked ; the reason I did not take proceedings against him before was that he threatened to blow out my brains if I did ; I repeatedly complained to my mother about his treatment ; when he sent the the £1 from Newcastle he said he did not care whether I went to him or not; I replied that £1 was not sufficient to take the children and myself to Newcastle, but I never intended going; in addition to the £1 I obtained a few goods from the co-operative store at Kembla, for which he paid ; I am not willing to give up the children to him; I reared them and will not give them up.
Honora Ramsay the mother of the compalinant, deposed that the marriage had been a most unhappy one, occasioned by defendant's jealousy; defendant had been guilty of cruelty to his wife on several occasions, and had made use of offensive language towards her; her daughter suffered from asthma, but was not subject to fainting fits before her marriage; defendant only paid for his own board whilst residing with her; she never asked him to pay for the board of his wife or children.
Henry Ramsay, father of complainant, had heard defendant use offensive language to his wife on several occasions; their marriage was a most unhappy one; witness gave his dog 'Jack' a better life than defendant gave his wife.
Mr. Lysaght submitbed thab bhe information must be dismissed, as complainant had been supported since the date of the alleged desertion. Defendanb bad also sent for complainant whilst he was at Newcastle, and she declined to go to him. Defendant admitted thab complainant had always been a good wife to him, and that he had no cause of complaint against her; he was prepared to take her and the children and support them.
In reply to the P.M., Mr. Russell said there was no chance of an amicable settlement being arrived at between the parties.
The Bench decided to proceed with the case.
Defendant deposed that he was now working at the Seaham Colliery, West Wallsend, his average earnings being from 7s to 8s por day ; he worked 5 1/2 days for the past fortnight ; he never hit his wife since their marriage ; she was a good woman and he was prepared to take her home ; she left of her own accord ; whilst he was away he wrote to her, saying he had a home for her and sending £1 to pay her passage ; he did not send her any more money after that because she would Bob go to him ; he had a £5 share in the co-operative store at Kembla, and when he went away he gave the share book to his wife, so that she could get goods to that amount less 9d that was owing ; the disturbances between them were only household affairs; he was prepared to take the children, but would not care to do so as it would hurt his wife's feelings, and would sooner pay for them.
To Mr. Russell: I have not always been good to my wife; I have said things to her that I was sorry for afterwards; I used the language attributed to me on one occasion; I have shoved her, but never struck her; I did not make her get out of bed and clean my boots the day bofore the child was born.
Mr. Lysaght addressed, the Bench, contending that no order could be made on the evidence submitted.
Defendant was ordered to pay tho sum of 12s 6d per week for twelve months, and also to pay 5s 101 costs of Court, and £1 Is professional costs.
In reply to the P.M., complainant said that she could not go and live with defendant again, as she was sure that after a short bime he would treat her as badly as before.
A charge of having deserted his two children was withdrawn, complainant stating that she did not think defendant could afford to pay more than the amount he was ordered to pay towards her support. Illawarra Mercury (Wollongong, NSW : 1856 - 1950) Tuesday 16 March 1897 p 2

Eliza Deakes v. W. Smith–The latter was charged with unlawfully assaulting Mrs, Deakes on the 14th ultimo, Mr, Chauncy appeared for the complainant. Eliza Deakes deposed: On the day in question, about 11.16 am,, I was getting some water out of a tank next to Smith's place, Smith came out and accused my brother of hitting a dog belonging to him, I told him there was no dog there. He swore at me, got up on the fence and caught hold of my throat with both hands and tried to drag me over the fence, I called my husband, and he and Brown both saw the offense, Smith and his wife are always annoying us, By defendant: You tried to drag me over the fence, The fence is about 4 feet high, The palings are on your side, Francis Brown deposed as to seeing defendant catch Mrs. Deakes by the throat. Smith was not a good neighbor. He had called witness out to fight the other day., By defendant: At the time of the assault I was not at the railway station with a coach. Josinh Deakes corroborated the statement as to the assault. He sung out to defendant, when the latter challenged him out into the paddock to fight, He also threatened to fight the driver. Defendant, duly sworn, deposed On the 14th instant I went home to dinner at 10 minutes to 12. My wife made a complaint to me, and I wont out and spoke to Richard Haddon. The latter denied striking my dog with a stone, Mrs. Deakes came round the corner and swore at me, I told her to mind her own business, and she then made use of some filthy language. She told my wife that if she got over the fence she'd tear her inside out, and afterwards throw an old boot and jam tin at my wife, She also threatened to throw a stone at her, I told her it would be the last one she would throw. She rushed over to the fence with the stone in hand to throw at my wife. I put out my hand and tried to catch the stone She sang out to her husband, who came up, jumped up on the fence with a big stone in his hand, asking me to come over and he'd deal with me. I won't to go over to him, and as I turned round Mrs. Deakes struck me in the back with the stone (produced.) I told Deakes if he was a man to come out in the paddock and I'd settle with him. By Mr. Shauney I have had that stone since the 14th instant. I laid a complaint to the sergeant about the assault after it occurred, I have never thrown slops over the fence into Deakes' kitchen. June Smith, defendant's wife, corroborated her husband's statement, and added that about 10 minutes before the alleged disturbance she saw Frank Brown driving a coach down to the railway station, Bernard Fitzpatrick deposed On the morning of the 6th instant, I was standing between Woods' place and the blacksmith's shop. I believe the time was a few minutes after twelve, and I saw Brown driving the coach past the corner. Senior-Sergeant Brayne, in answer, to defendant stated: I remember you making a complaint to me about the middle of May, and I gave certain advice. You have come to me several times with complaints, both before and since. Those complaints refer to the people before the Court. Mrs. Deakes, recalled, stated I did not throw either a boot or jam tin at Mrs. Smith, as there was no such thing in the yard at the time, Neither did I pick up a stone to throw at her, Defendant was convicted, The Kiama Independent, and Shoalhaven Advertiser (NSW : 1863 - 1947)Thursday 11 June 1896 - Page 2

Mrs. M. A. DEAN. With the death of Mrs. Mary Ann Dean, which occurred at her home, 80 Smith Street, Wollongong last Friday, yet another link with the early history of this district has been severed. Born in Enniskillen, Ireland, 90 years ago, the late Mrs. Dean came to this country at the age of seven years with her parents, , the late Mr. and. Mrs. John Anderson. The family first settled at Bulli where Mr. Anderson carried on farming and later he became associated with the coal mining industry. The late Mrs Dean was one of a family of ten, five sons and five daughters, the only surviving members now being Mrs. M. Ward, of Woonona, and Mrs. H. Thompson, of Five Dock. She married the late Mr. James Dean at Wollongong in 1881 and members of their family were: Leslie (who died some two years ago), Percy (deceased), Stan (Lindfield), Roy (Wollongong), Pearl (Wollongong), Jack (Wollstonecraft), and Thomas (deceased). Her husband pre-deceased her in January, 1929. The late Mrs. Dean had played a, particularly active pan in community affairs and had been prominent in all matters connected with the Congregational church. She also did splendid work for the Wollongong Benevolent Society and was an active worker for the Red Cross particularly during World War I. For many years she was a stewardess in the cooking section at Wollongong Show and recently the Show Society, in appreciation of her efforts over a long number of years, elected her a life member of the Society. She had also taken a keen interest in the Wollongong High and Wollongong Public Schools and also in the girl guides. Her public life also included several years as mayoress of Wollongong, her late husband having been actively associated with the Municipal Council, officiating as Mayor for a number of terms. The late Mrs. Dean had enjoyed particularly good health until an illness in 1943 and although she made a good recovery she was never able to get about as freely as before. On Saturday afternoon the funeral left her home for Wollongong Congregational cemetery where the remains were laid to rest beside those of her late husband South Coast Times and Wollongong Argus (NSW : 1900 - 1954)Friday 29 August 1947 - Page 14

f. John Green m. Mary Vickers *
t the time of his marriage, Jacob was farming in the Macquarie Rivulet area and continued there at least until 1869. Possibly when the combination of rust, fire and drought and low prices forced a change in the agriculture of the area, Jacob turned to fishing, the same as his brother Abraham. It is as a fisherman that Jacob is chiefly remembered. Story has it that he built the boat that Bill Beach rowed at the time he became World Sculling Champion. Jacob lived near the Beach and Clifford families in the Canterbury/Berkeley area. [35/56/75/87]

Her husband was a fisherman. Around the time of his marriage he took up residence in the Berkeley area, probably close to the mouth of Mullet Creek. Sailing and rowing were necessary skills for a fisherman in those days, and Abraham became a champion sculler of the Illawarra District. He and Edward Barber were matched for 10 pounds by Mr. George McPaul against Tom Clifford and Bill Beach, the latter pair narrowly winning. In 1883, Abraham began fishing the Tuggarah Lakes and pioneered in that area. The family made the permanent move north some years later.

Richard and Sarah with 3 children travelled out with the Piper and Thomas families. All three families settled in the Illawarra, Richard being hired to do piece work on fencing by Henry Osborne. It is possible that Richard took up a clearing lease on part of Yallah Estate almost immediately. In 1841 he was one of several farmers listed as living at Wollingurry in houses owned by Alexander Imlay who owned “Yallah” for a short time. This farm became “Gate Farm” and was tenanted by the Dennises to about 1867 when the family moved to Barella St., Wollongong where Richard worked as a carpenter. About 1869 most of the remaining family moved to Paddington. Those of the Denniss family to remain in Illawarra were William Adam who farmed at Marshall Mt., Sarah and Ruth who lived at Albion Pk. and Jacob and Abraham, fishermen of Berkeley. Jeffrey became Mayor of Canterbury, Sydney.

Her husband took up a clearing lease on the Weston property near Marshall Mount in 1854-55. He was a champion ploughman, having won prizes as early as 1853, and he then used his prowess on his own 77 acres. Clearing the land must have been arduous work, as in 1881 he was still covenanting to clear the land, although paying 40 pounds p.a. rent. Encountered the normal hazards of farming, with a severe drought in 1862, fires in 1865 and floods in 1873. Was one of the last to abandon wheat farming for mixed dairying in the 1870's when rust, first noticed in the late 1850's, made wheat farming unprofitable. Was the oldest surviving member of the Dapto A.H.& I. Society. The farm at Marshall Mount was purchased at the breakup of the Osborne Estate in 1890 and it remained in the Denniss family until 1968.

There must have been an inquest into the disappearance of Gustavus Thompson which established that he died because she remarried Joseph Derrett the year following his disappearance, if he was not assumed to be dead she would have had to wait for 7 years to have him declared dead.
Crookwell Gazette, Fri 5.3.1886
DERRETT, Mrs Joseph
Obituary On Sunday last we committed to the grave the remains of an old and respected resident of Crookwell. We refer to the late Mrs Derrett, wife of Mr Joseph Derrett of Crookwell, who departed this life on Friday last at the ripe old age of 87 years. Deceased for some time prior to her death, as might have been expected considering her age, was a very feeble state of body, and her death, which was the result of natural decay, was not to be wondered at. She was a native of Ireland, and on her arrival in the colony was for a number of years a resident of the Illawarra district. About 20 years ago, however, Mrs Derrett with her husband and family, removed to Crookwell, where she sojourned up to the time of her death. She was a large-hearted generous woman, and displayed to a great extent the generous and warm-hearted hospitality so characteristic of the Irish people. Deceased was a member of the Wesleyan Church, but latterly she and her husband attended the meetings of the Salvation Army of which the latter is a member. The remains were followed to the general cemetery on Sunday last by a large cortege, consisting of members of all denominations; the Rev Mr McMichael read the burial service, and the captain of the Salvation Army (Captain Skinner) also addressed the gathering. prev Mrs Gustavus Thompson, nee Eliza Shaw, d 26.2.1886, par Hugh Shaw/Sarah Martin, Issue Joseph b 1845.

MRS. ELIZA DEVITT.
On Saturday afternoon, November 21, 1914, one of the pioneer residents of Woodhill, near Berry, Mrs. Eliza Devitt, widow of the late Mr. John Devitt, sen., passed to her eternal reward at the honoured age of 84 years. The deceased was the eldest daughter of the late Mr. Adam Boyd, and was born on the 26th of March, 1830, at Pettigo in the county of Donegal, Ireland. With her parentsand other members of the family, she came to New South Wales in 1853, and settled at Spring Hill, near Kiama. In early life in Ireland she yielded to the influence of the Holy Spirit, and afterwards united in membership with the Primitive Methodist Church; and at Spring Hill she joined the Wesleyan Methodists. In January, 1860, at Kiama, she and her late husband were united in marriage and proceeded to Broughton Vale, near Berry, where they resided for about seven years, after which they re moved to Woodhill, at which place Mrs. Devitt lived until her decease, whence her mortal remains were conveyed for burial to Berry cemetery. As a wife and mother and member of the Church she was inestimably worthy. The ministers of the Methodist Church have always received liberal hospitality in her home. Loyal devotion marked each aspect of her life. Her communion with God and her confidence in Jesus remained clear and unfaltering to the end of her earthly career, and when that end was reached it was one of calm assurance and heavenly repose.

ELIZABETH DEW.
Elizabeth Dew was born in England 62 years ago, and departed this life at Hurlstone Park on the 25th January, 1916. On arrival in this State, some 44 years ago, she and her husband, made their homes at Bulli, where they resided for 40 years.
She became, a member of the church whilst in that locality, and her attachment to it was both loyal and sincere. The writer was brought into touch with her sixteen years ago, and it was a pleasure to see how she set herself to do what she could for her own and hers. Her home-life was beautiful in the extreme, her influence over her children was most conspicuous.
She loved to teach them for good, and no one was more filled with a Godly pride than she, when her children, one by one, joined the church of her choice. Her five sons and one daughter revere her gracious memory. Next to her own home came her love for the ministers of the church, and she did what she could, during a long course of years, to provide for their comfort and further their interests. She resided for a short period at Gilgandra, finally removing -to Hurlstone Park, where, twelve months ago, she had a paralytic stroke and remained an invalid to the end of her life. Her devotion to her children in their earlier years bore fruit in their loving abandonment to their mother during those anxious months of waiting for the inevitable end. Her character, which was sweet and winsome in the extreme, was hallowed by suffering. She died in great peace, with a sure and steadfast hope in Christ. She was buried in the Rookwood cemetery, amidst the tears of her loving husband and children, who are cheered by the thought that she has gone home. A memorial service was held in the Hurlstone Park Church on Sunday evening, 6th February, 1916. The Methodist (Sydney, NSW: 1892 - 1954) Saturday 19 February 1916 p 11

OBITUARY— The death took place on Thursday morning of Mrs. Harry Dewley, of Figtree, after an illness of about six weeks. Until quite recently Mrs. Dewley always enjoyed good health, and her untimely end cast a gloom throughout the whole district, of which Mrs. Dewley is a native, and has been a resident of Figtree for about 20 years. She always took akeen interest in and was an active worker for All Saint's Church of England, Figtree, and by her kindly disposition and happy nature had endeared herself to all who were acquainted with her. Mrs. Dewley was 41 years of age, and leaves a husband and six children, the eldest being fifteen years of age and the youngest an infant of seven weeks, to mourn the loss of a kind and loving wife, and an indulgent and devoted mother. The late Mrs. Dewley was extremely popular amongst the residents of Figtree, a fact borne out by the numerous volunteers to assist in nursing and careing for the children during her illness. Nurse Lindbeck, of Sydney, was most devoted to the patient throughout the whole time, and Mrs. Lukins also rendered great assistance with other neighbours. The funeral took place on Friday at the Church of England cemetery, Wollongong. Illawarra Mercury (Wollongong, NSW : 1856 - 1950) Tuesday 17 March 1914 p 2

On Tuesday afternoon, about 3 o'clock, a fire broke out in a cottage in Railway street and resulted in considerable damage.
The cottage was the centre o le of three (all owned by Mr. Thomas Ball, of Woonona) immediately facing the railway station. It was occupied by Mr. Andrew Diehm, goods-shed porter, …. At the time of the outbreak, the cause of whioh isunknown, the only inmates of Mr. Diehm's house were Mrs. Sanderson (Mrs. Diehm's sister) and a child, and when Mrs Saunders noticed the smoke she immediately raised an alarm. Within a very few minutes the building was enveloped in flames, and it looked as though all three cottages must be destroyed.

JOSEPHINE DIEHM. .
Josephine Diehm was a daughter of Reuben Hindes, for many years an active worker at Bourke Street Church, and one of the earliest workers in the Sydney City Mission. Coming of such stock, it was in the order of tinners that her faith should, be rooted and grounded in Him' Whom she acclaimed her Lord and Saviour.
In her early years, associated with her father in church and mission work, she developed a keen interest in children. This characteristic, shown so clearly in her own home, was extended to such wide extent, that the Orange Advocate' referred to her as the ' ' children 's friend. ' ' Having married Mr. Andrew Diehm, an honoured local preacher, she was for fifteen years closely associated with the church at Albury. Here also, during the war period, she was an active Red Cross worker, and was prominent in other soldier welfare movements. A period of seven years was spent at Orange, where, owing to indifferent health, her activities were restricted greatly. However, she made many friends, especially among the young folk. After removal to Lithgow, she was practically confined to her home, as the bonds of affliction became more severe….. The Methodist (Sydney, NSW : 1892 - 1954) Saturday 27 June 1931 p 12

Mrs. Dinning whose retentive memory could recall many of the happenings of the olden days, was a Miss Coleman before her marriage, and was born on 26th February, 1855, in Kent Street Sydney, Parish of Argyle. Her parents were married in St. James Church of England Sydney, in 1845.
The Coleman family first came to Kiama in 1865, and opened a general store in Terralong Street, Mr. Coleman also conducting private day and night school classes. Later they moved to Nowra, where Mr. Coleman became Council Clerk at Terrara, and continued his private school teaching. Seventy-three years ago the late Mrs. Dinning returned to Kiama in the employ of the late Major Black, whose residence at that time was at “Happy 'Villa” on the Saddleback Road, and in 1876 she married Mr. William Dinning, who with his brother Joe, were well-known stonemasons, building many of the foundations of houses and bridges in the district.
Since the death of her husband some thirty years ago, Mrs. Dining has resided in their old home in Manning street, except for a few years in Sydney with her adopted daughter, Miss Rachel Coleman, who in later years was the wife of the late Jonas Price, both deceased.
All her married life, Mrs. Dinning was a staunch adherent of the Church of England and in her younger days helped in its activities, and for some years was a member of the choir.
It was from Christ Church that her funeral moved on Monday last for North Kiama cemetery The Kiama Reporter and Illawarra Journal (NSW : 1899 - 1947) Wednesday 27 March 1946 p 4

Issue: none known
Mrs Margaret Forsyth arrived in Sydney NSW on the Earl Durham on 11/7/1842, she was listed as a widow and her occupation was a housekeeper. She was a Protestant who came from W South. Also on this ship was her brother James Kidd, his wife and family and sister Ellen Kidd.
Life in the colony of New South Wales was initially difficult for Margaret and she was listed as a new insolvent on 24 January 1843, when she was living on Castlereagh St Sydney, and was still listed as a widow.
In 1845 Margaret married Henry Napier Disney, alias Arthur Battersby, at St Andrew’s Scots Church Sydney (V18453914 74B/1845). Henry Disney was a convict who arrived on the Portsea 1838, he received a TOL 1842. He was a convicted bigamist who was convicted at the Old Bailey on 29th January 1838. His first wife Anne Battersby was granted a divorce in 5th March 1840 by the House of Lords. His life before arriving in Sydney is listed in Literary Anecdotes and Contemporary Reminiscences, of Professor Porson and others. …, Volume By Edmund Henry Barker 1852. He seems to have been a 'cad and a bounder' and she may have been yet another person taken in by this man
While in NSW Henry Disney was a commercial agent and became insolvent in January 1843, at the same time as Margaret. It is possible that they met while being listed as bankrupts. The couple left the colony shortly after their marriage as there is no listing to Henry carrying on any occupation after 1845.
In 1851 a Margaret Disnay was living in Regent St Marylebone Middlesex, she was married but the head of the household and she was a Chiropodist. No one was living with her other than a general servant.
The following was printed in the Illawarra Mercury and Sydney Morning Herald in 1857.
A HEROINE OF THE WAR.-The Times of Thursday, August 9th, says-“ A great many testimonials have been forwarded to us referring to Mrs. Margaret Disney, late a nurse in the Crimea, who arrived a few days ago at Portsmouth in the transport Saldanha, from Balaklava. These testimonials are from officers, soldiers, medical men, and the crew of the Saldanah, and they all speak in the highest terms of the attention paid to the sick and wounded by Mrs. Disney on board the transport, as well as in the Crimea, where she had to suffer her full share of privations and dangers. The public have appreciated the, valuable services rendered by the nurses in the Crimea, and such testimonials as these prove how consoling and important these services have been to the sick and wounded.” The lady referred to above is the sister of Mr. James Kidd, of Dapto, who has recently visited this district. Illawarra Mercury cited in SMH 10 April 1857 p.2
The Saldanha was a troop carrier which carried cholera victims back from the Crimea War in 1855. Mrs Disney is listed as a nurse who worked with Florence Nightingale, who was a pioneer of nursing and a reformer of hospital sanitation methods. Mrs Disney was on of 5 hospital nurses taken to Balaklava in January 1855, it was originally considered that she would be one of the better nurses but she was a heavy drinker and 'exhibited violent and unruly conduct'. She was dismissed from service due to her drinking. She may have been one of the ‘old style’ nurses who were noted for being rough, unhygienic and frequently alcoholic.
Given Margaret’s social class and background it is likely that the newspaper article may have enhanced her connection with Florence Nightingale and the Crimea War.
Henry died 8th January 1861.
DISNEY-January 8th, at 66, Charlotte-street, Fitzroy-square, London, Captain Henry Napier Disney, native of Dublin. The Sydney Morning Herald 20 April 1861
In Bailliere’s Post Office Directory 1867 she is listed as Disney Margaret living at West Dapto, she had no occupation. Her brothers were both living at this time in the Dapto area (see Kidd), her sister Ellen Kidd is listed under Dunne and was a midwife.
There is no record of her death in NSW and she is no longer listed in Greville’s Post Office Directory 1872.

Dobson and his late wife spent their early married life at Picton, South Coast, afterwards coming to the Nambucca on the s.s. Rosedale.
They occupied a farm at Warrell Creek (now owned by Mr. F. Pile) for about 20 years. .

The ceremony was performed by Major Spratt and there was a regular hallelujah time. At the close of the ceremony the customary shower of rice fell upon the couple creating considerable mirth. The Kiama Independent, and Shoalhaven Advertiser (NSW: 1863 - 1947) Tuesday 8 April 1890 p 2
Kiama is our next place where a hallelujah wedding is announced. The local paper, in announcing the event, said that it was not the case of May and December both parties belonging to the latter month. We quite agree with Mr. Editor, especially when we found the united ages to be 113 years. There’s hope for some people yet. The barracks was packed to the doors and many outside. The Major tied the knot and a volley was fired at the finish that was simply deafening. God bless Brother and Sister Dobson. The War Cry 12 April 1890

AT the Kiama Police Court yesterday before Messrs. M. N. Hindmarsh and Thos. Love, Js.P. Alexander Porter was charged, under the Lunacy Act, with being of unsound mind. Constable Read, stationed at Gerringong, deposed that, from informamation he received, he went, in company with Mr. Alex. Campbell, to Broughton Village on Sunday morning last, when they found Porter, dressed only in a night shirt and pair of drawers, with a handkerchief tied round his head. He arrested him and brought him back.
Mrs. Porter stated that her husband had left the lunatic asylum some months previously. She had failed to send in periodical reports as to his condition, and in consequence he had been registered as cured.
Drs. Terrey and Anderson both gave evidence in proof of Porter's unsoundness of mind, and he was ordered to be sent to the Gladesville Asylum for insane, whither he was taken yesterday by Constable McAndrews by the 2.30 train from Kiama.

New South Wales Police Gazette and Weekly Record of Crime (Sydney : 1860 - 1930)Wednesday 1 January 1896 - Page 5 In Divorce. Wilkins v. Wilkins.—Mr. Garland appeared for the petitioner. The following evidence was taken for transmission to the judge in divorce:—Catherine Wilkins, petitioner, deposed that she was marred at the Roman Catholic Church, Bannockburn, near Inverell, to the respondent on April 12, 1887. There was one child (a daughter) by the marriage. The grounds of divorce were cruelty. Her husband had assaulted her, and called her bad names, and she had to go to the hospital on one occasion as the result of his ill treatment. The cruelty began two months after marriage, and continued until witness left him in April, 1895. Her husband often stayed at houses with immoral people. Charlotte Francis Holles, a married woman residing at Inverell, deposed that she knew the respondent, John Wilkins. Remembered him coming to her house in May and taking a young woman for a drive after which they came back and stayed at her house during that night, and though they were given separate rooms they were found occupying the same room the next morning.

THE LATE MRS. JAMES DORROUGH.
Quite unexpected to a large circle of friends did the sad news spread late yesterday afternoon that Mrs James Dorrough, of “Tyrone” Cottage, North Lismore, had passed to the great beyond. The deceased, Mary Ann, daughter of Mr and Mrs Joseph Alcorn of Omagh, County Tyrone,was born there on the 21st June, 1848. In 1860 she, with a sister came to Australia, to live with their brother, Mr William Alcorn, of Foxground South Coast. On the 23rd of February 1864, she was married to Mr. James Dorrough, who survives her, at Foxground by the Rev Geo. Turner, Methodist minister. They afterwards went to Kangaloon, where they resided for fifteen years. Coming to the Richmond in 1882. Mr. Dorrough brought the plant of a sawmill with him, and settled on the bank of the river at North Lismore, where he built what has ever since been known as Dorrough's mill, which he managed for 22 years, then handing it over to his son, Mr. C. A. Dorrough, who, after successfully managing it for a number of years, transferred it to new hands, and went to Brisbane to still be engaged in the timber industry. Mr and Mrs Dorrough, senr since their advent here, always made their home at North Lismore. They attained their golden wedding on the 23rd of February last, but owing to several of the family being unable to attend the celebration was not kept up till the 11th of April, and very proud indeed was the old lady at having her children and her grandchildren around her. The following week Mr. and Mrs. Dorrough went on a short second honeymoon to visit their only son and his family in Brisbane, and came back thoroughly recuperated by the trip.
Just a fortnight ago Mrs Dorrough managed to catch a chill, which turned into gastritis. She seemed to get over this but bronchitis set in, and then pneumonia, and yesterday afternoon, all though hopes had been realised that her strong constitution would pull her through, she turned to her aged husband with the words. “rest, rest,” and passed peacefully and happily away. During her illness she was assiduously nursed by her daughters, who closely grieve the loss of a beloved parent. Her ministerial wants were attended to by the Rev I Calvert. Thus passed away one who had lived a most ? life ever thoughtful for others and overflowing with kindness and ???. She was a staunch and consistent member of the Methodist Church since her residence here, and as proud was she of retelling the fact to her children and grandchildren that she came of an old Methodist family and that her ancestor had joined the Methodist Church when John Wesley went over to Ireland. Her father, Mr Joseph Alcorn also came out to Australia in 1861 and lived with his son son. Mr W Acorn was a Methodist preacher and class reader for many years.
Deceased leaves a husband, one son and four daughters to mourn their loss, the latter being Mrs. R. W. Simes, wife of the President of the Terania Shire Council; Mrs. Spencer Cottee, Treagle: Mrs. Arthur Gray, and Mrs George Cottee, and 30 grandchildren and one great-grandchild.
Two of her sisters were married to Messrs. Andrew and James Alcorn. The former sister predeceased her and the latter resides at Leichhardt, Sydney. Mrs. Funston, another sister, resides with her daughter, Mrs C. A. Dorrough, and one brother, Mr. William Alcorn resides at Bowral.
The remains will leave her late residence, North Lismore, for the New Methodist cemetery at 3.30 this afternoon, Northern Star (Lismore, NSW : 1876 - 1954) Tuesday 5 May 1914 p 4

A son's obituary stated.. He landed in Queensland from County Tipperary, Ireland, in July, 1852, with his father and mother, four brothers and three sisters. The following year the family left Queensland, or Moreton Bay, as it was called in those days, and landed in Kiama and went to Jamberoo by bullock dray, there being no roads in Jamberoo in those days. The family then walked to the site of his late home, where they had to clear sufficient ground to build a home. The blacks were camped on the banks of the Minnamurra in those days, and he could recollect seeing a line of the semi-savage aboriginals over a mile long, making their way past his home to hold corroborees at Jamberoo

REV. J. W. DOWSON.
The numerous friends of the Rev. J. W. Dowson in Wollongong and throughout Illawarra will regret to learn that he is about to remove to some other part of the colony. And the regret will be intensified on learning the fact that the removal is occasioned by failing health on the part of Mrs. Dowson. It appears that good lady has not enjoyed her usual state of health for some time past, and that a complete change of air and scene is considered desirable for her. Should he be enabled to make arrangements for the purpose, Mr. Dowson intends to leave Wollongong within a month or two. In addition to being a sterling citizen, Mr. Dowson has been useful in many ways in the district, more especially in connection with church work. Since his retirement from reaular ministration in connection with the Wesleyan Church he has been a ready and willing emergency preacher in connection with any of the other churches In the district deserving such labor of love from him at any time. In him the Bible Society, too, has had a devoted and efficient secretary for several years. Illawarra Mercury (Wollongong, NSW : 1856 - 1950) Saturday 16 January 1897 p 2

Mrs. Catherine Doyle.
The death of Mrs. Catherine Cecilia Doyle, at the home of her son, in Ellerslie Crescent, Taringa, Brisbane, is a further reminder that thoe fine old Celtic stock from which most of us have sprung, is far too speedily passing on. Mrs. Doyle died last week after a lingering illness of some months. Throughout, her illness, she demonstrated the most ardent and exemplary religious fervour that characterised her whole life. In her last hours she was fortified by all the rites of Holy Church, and the funeral, largely attended, took place at Brisbane. Deceased was a native of Loch Lomond, Scotland, and came to Australia when very young. She married Michael Joseph Doyle, who, for many years, was a prominent member of the teaching staff of the Education Department. He taught for varied periods at Nowra, Milton, Ulladulla, Kiama, and other centres. He predeceased his wife by 17 years, and she, before marriage, lived at Bungendore, where her parents conducted a store for many years. Subsequent to Mr. Doyle's retirement, the family lived at Paddington. There were ten sons and three daughters. The most widely-known of the family is Sister Mary Coleman, of the Sacred Heart Hospital, Young. For some years she was matron of the Mater Misericordiae Hospital, North Sydney, and it was due in a large measure to her zeal and ability that the hospital attained its present stand- ard of great efficiency. For a time, too, Sister Coleman conducted the private portion of the institution. One daughter died, and the other is Mrs. E. Lane, of Coogee.
The sons included Messrs. Victor Doyle, (who is in business in the city), Sylvester (a prominent Brisbane pressman, who is at present a member of the editorial staff. of the 'Daily Standard),' Cecil (Beard, Watson's), and Leo, who is in business at Bathurst. Mrs. Doyle was 78 years of age, and a daily communicant all her life. —R.I.P. The Catholic Press (Sydney, NSW : 1895 - 1942) Thursday 10 April 1924 p 15

WANTED SOMEONE TO KEEP HIM. i Mr. Justice Walker this morning continued the hearing of causes. In the suit brought by Mary Drew, formerly Hennessy. for a divorce from George Drew, adultery and desertion were the grounds relied on. Petitioner deposed to having married the re spondent in April, 1893, at Sydney, according to the Roman Catholic rites. - He was a baker. and after the ceremony they went to live at Wollongong, where they remained for six months, when he lost his position. They then came to Sydney, and he failing to get employ.. ago he left her because she wouldn't keep him. At that time she heard of his carrying on with a girl named Dolly, and she accused him of it. Eighteen months ago she had him bound over to keep the peace. He wanted her to give him money, and when she refused to do so, he struck her. On several occasions she had given him money. Six years ago he stole her clothes. His Honour: How do you know.-that.?-'Well, he pawned them, and gave me the ticket. Petitioner went on to say; that six years ago, when she accused her husband of living with the girl Dolly, he admitted it. Since, he left Her nine years ago, he had contributed nothing to her support. His Honour: Under what circumstances did he leave you? — He wanted me to work, and keep him, and I told him I wouldn't.' Well, what did he say?— He went away. Yes?— He said he would get; somebody else who would keep him. Did you ever gi him any cause for leaving you?— No, I didn't. And all this time you say he hasn't contributed to your support? — No; he hasn't. Have you ever asked him to go back and maintain you? — Yes. When did you ask him?— Two years ago I spoke to him. What did he say? — He asked me if it was time I was getting -a divorce from him. Previously, what attempts did you make to set him to maintain you? I asked him .to make a home for me. But when was that? — When I saw him I asked him. He left you nine years ago, you say?— Yes. Did yon see ihim frequently after that? — Yes. What did he say on those occasions?— I asked him if he was going to get a home for me, and he said he wasn't. Other evidence was given to the effect that the respondent had lived with a woman at a lodgeing house in Devonshire-street, under, the name of Williams. The woman he was living with was not the respondent's wife. His Honour found for the petitioner, on the issue of adultery, and granted a decree nisi, to be moved absolute in three months.

LITTLE MISS MARY DUGGAN.
ON Friday last about mid-day Mary Duggan, aged 5 years and 4 months (daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Duggan) was fatally bitten on the leg (which had the appearance of being bitten twice) by a snake on her father's farm, “Curramore,” Jamberoo. The little one at the time was playing with her younger sister under the shade of a tree (where they had often played before), near some ploughed ground.
Every possible assistance was rendered by Messrs Chas. McGlinchey, Philip Collins, Joseph Booth and
Ebenezer Vidler. Dr. Fox, who was wired for, was met on the road at “Terragong,” the residence of Mr. E. J. Marks, where he attended to the sufferer, who was then taken to the Kiama Hospital, and notwithstanding every care and attention she passed away about 3 o'clock on Saturday morning in the presence of her mother, within about 15 hours of being bitten.
Mr. Duggan, who represents the Coastal Farmers' Co-op. Society, was at Camden, and on receipt of a telegram rode 70 miles, arriving at Kiama Hospital just a quarter of an hour after his dear little one had passed away to where there is no pain or suffering. The deepest sympathy is expressed around the district for the sorrowing parents and other members of the family in their distress. Mary was a bright, happy, intelligent child, with a winning smile for all, and sadness reigns at the thought of her sudden demise under such painful circumstances. The world is large, but everyone misses their own. The funeral left the Hospital on Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock for the new R.C. cemetry at Jamberoo. The cortege was a long one, and many others as well gathered around the grave. Rev. Father Malone performed the last sad rites, and as the mortal remains of the dear departed were lowered to the grave (“Earth to earth, dust to dust”) many eyes were dimmed, and even men wept in their sorrow.

f. Phillip Keeffe
Husband a sawyer. Margaret Dunne, 50 years, mother of three children and wife of deceased, deposed : On Sunday, the 27th, she went with the deceased about 12 o'clock to visit Mr. Shannon, some three miles distant from their own home at Mount Elina ; they returned about sundown accompanied by one John Ford, who walked first ; when they reached the top of the precipice (about 50 or 60 feet high) at Burra Creek ; the ground under deceased's feet gave way, and he fell head foremost down the rock ; Ford was about three feet a-head of deceased and she (witness) about three feet behind him ; she and Ford went round the track to the bottom, and found her husband cut about the face and evidently dying ; her husband had never been that way before, and she thought Ford aught to have warned deceased of his danger; the ground that slipped was not more than a foot ; deceased had some drink at Shannon's, she could not say how much ; he was in good temper and spirits ; she, thought he was sober, and she was sure his death was purely accidental. John Ford, farmer, of Wallaby Hill, deposed : The deceased and his wife called at his place the previous day (Sunday), where they had no drink but tea ; he went with them to Shannon's, where they had some drink ; he and deceased had some gin in a cup both before and after dinner ; they started home about half-past 5 o'clock, deceased being sober enough to find his way ; he (witness) did not undertake to show them the way ;when they had proceeded about thirty or forty chains to the waterfall at the Burra Creek, he first and deceased immediately after, he heard a noise as of the ground giving way, and looking round saw deceased fall head-foremost over the precipice without speaking ; he (witness) knew it was a dangerous road, but he knew of no other way at the time ; he had often travelled that way before, and might do so again ; he, accompanied by Mrs. Dunne went round by the mountain track to the bottom of the precipice, and found deceased between two rocks ; his head was all cut, but he was not quite dead, though he never spoke again ; they got some neighbours to assist in carrying deceased to the residence of Mrs. Robb, where he lived for about six hours, and then died ; Mrs. Dunne went for Dr. Tarrant, and when he came deceased had been dead half an hour ; he was certain the death was accidental ; he had known deceased about nine years ; they were always good friends ; he had never seen deceased drunk and incapable of taking care of himself more than two or three times. Antolil Scriber, farmer, residing near Mrs. Robb's Jamberoo, deposed : He saw deceased the day before, between four and five o'clock, in the evening, in company with Ford and Mrs. Dunne, proceeding along the track at the waterfall, Burra Creek, and was walking behind them at a distance of about five yards, when deceased went over the precipice ; he saw him fall, but no earth gave way under his feet ; he either was, or appeared to be intoxicated ; no one pushed him, he fell, by accident, because (as the witness believed) he was not sober; Ford was not drunk nor was he (witness) and he did not like—being a stranger to him —to interfere with deceased. The place was a dangerous one, but it was easy to cross, and there was no danger if a man was sober. Dr. Tarrant being duly sworn said he sent for and saw deceased about one o'clock that morning ; he then appeared to have been dead about half an hour ; he saw no marks of violence on the body, excepting a contused wound over the right eye ; blood was oozing from the right ear ; and from information given, and an external examination of the body, he was of opinion the base of the skull was fractured ; such an injury might be caused, by falling from a height upon his head ; the body smelt very strongly of alcoholic drink. The Coroner reviewed the evidence, and pointed out the law in such cases at some length ; and the jury, after a brief consultation, returned the following verdict :— ” We find that the deceased, James Dunne, came by his death by accidentally falling over a precipice at Burra Creek, Jamberoo.“ The Kiama Independent, and Shoalhaven Advertiser (NSW : 1863 - 1947)Thursday 1 May 1873 - Page 2

MRS. JOSEPH DURRELL.
On Tuesday last there was laid to rest at the Albion Park cemetery Mrs. Joseph Durrell, relict of the late Joseph Durrell, who pre-deceased her 29 years ago.
During her long life, for she was 87 years of age, she resided in Shellharbour. With her husband she started her married life on the Reddall Estate, and during many years the devoted couple lived on a farm at Stony Range. Rain or shine, after his death as long as the old lady was able, she drove every Saturday to the cemetery in Albion Park to tend her husband's grave and to place flowers upon it in remembrance, and on Tuesday last her body was brought from Sydney to rest beside him. A warm heart and kindly soul was hers, in days of strength, to do a neighbourly deed, a helpful action in sickness or trouble, gave her the deepest pleasure she knew, and her hospitality was unbounded- one of the best was the verdict of those who knew her many fine qualities.
In her advancing years (for she had none of her own to give it) she received kindness and care from district people, particularly from Miss Barr and the household of Mr. J. McNabb, where of late she lived.
Some weeks ago she broke her collar bone from a fall and was taken to the Kiama Hospital, later removed to Sydney, where she passed away.
The funeral was well attended, the Rev. Mr. Knox, Rector of Dapto, offidating. Many beautiful wreaths were sent in remembrance from district friends and acquaintances. The Kiama Independent, and Shoalhaven Advertiser (NSW : 1863 - 1947) Saturday 21 October 1922 p 2
