The Tumut and Adelong Times 26 Jan 1926
DEATH OF MRS. GRADY Sr. In the early hours of Friday morning last, there passed away one of the oldest and most respected residents of the district, in the person of Mrs. Grady sr., of Sharp's Creek. Mrs. Grady had not enjoyed good health for some three years, and on Xmas Day had a bad turn, and has been a sufferer ever since, till she passed peacefully away on Friday morning last to receive her just reward. For sixty years the home has been at Sharp's Creek, where she went with her husband , as a newly-married couple, and here they reared the highly respected Grady, family to manhood and womanhood. Those were the days when a woman was known for her true worth. Doctors were scarce, and the method of travel was slow, but the good neighborly spirit was high, and many a family has reason to bless Mrs. Grady for her kindness and skilfulness in times of sickness, when a woman would ride on horseback all night to attend and assist suffering humanity. Born at Gundaroo 76 years ago, the late Mrs. Grady came with her parents (Mr. and Mrs. Whiting) as a little girl to these districts, and they then lived at the spot where Rimmers' Bridge now stands. It was there whilst still very young, that she met her husband (the late Mr. William Grady), to whom she was married at the age of 17 years, and they moved at once to Sharp's Creek, where the home still stands. In those days, Sharp's Creek had many people fluctuating about it on account of the good gold to be won there, though few of them settled down there to live after the gold ran out. The surviving family are William, John, Thomas, Arthur James, Miss Jane, George, Fred., Mrs. T. Hartnett, Charles and Mrs. Ehmsen, the whole of whom are residents of these districts, with the exception of Chas., who lives in Sydney. Another son, Richard, died at Sharp's Creek at 37 years of age. During her illness she had received every attention from Dr. Gallagher, whilst to her daughter, Miss Jane, fell the bulk of the nursing assisted by Mrs. Jim Whiting and Mrs. Will. Whiting, and every comfort and care that could be bestowed on the beloved mother was given ; but her long and useful life had come to an end, and the remains were interred in the Adelong Cemetery on Saturday last, a great number following the body to its last resting place. It is some 15 years since her late husband was laid to rest in the same cemetery. To the members of the family we extend our sincerest sympathies. |

This public tree has about 60,100 people. Every person in the tree is related by birth or marriage to at least one other person in the tree - no strays. The people in the tree come mainly from four projects.
If you find errors - anything incorrect (dates, places, wrong parents, wrong children), and you have evidence, I would love to fix them. Or, if you have information that would extend my projects, do not hestiate to contact me on the email link below. I do not publish information on living people - which means I'm not much interested in people born after about 1920, and I usually distrust material from before about 1770 without extremely good sources. g.bell@bigpond.net.au When you click the mail address abouve, if it does not open your email app, copy the address on the screen.
