Personal Notes:

The Tumut and Adelong Times 11 Jul 1950 Obituary MRS. SOPHIA D. JOHNSTONE The death occurred in her sleep at 3.30 a.m on Sunday following a heart attack at 5.30 p.m. the previous day of Mrs. Sophia Dorothy Johnstone, of Capper Street Tumut, widow of the late Mr. Eric R. Johnstone. Deceased had suffered a stroke in 1941 which had left her with a weak heart and slightly incapacitated. She had suffered slight attacks since. The late Mrs. Johnstone was born at North Sydney and was the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. C McD. Stuart. After her marriage to Mr. E. R Johnstone they resided at Windsor where Mr. Johnstone followed farming pursuits, before coming to the Tumut district in 1930, acquiring a property a few miles from town on the Gilmore road. They moved into Tumut to reside just before Mr. Johnstone passed away in 1942. Prior to her slight incapacitation the late Mrs. Johnstone took a keen interest in C.W.A. affairs. The family surviving are: Amy and Mary (Sydney), Irwin (Tumut) and Selwyn (Trangie). Two sons, George and James, predeceased her. There are also two brothers Irwin Stuart (Windsor) and Douglas Stuart (Gunnedah) and three sisters, Frances (Sydney), Mary and Nellie (Goulburn) surviving. One brother Donald predeceased her. The funeral took place yesterday afternoon, interment being made in the Presbyterian portion of the Tumut New Cemetery after a service at St. Stephen's. Rev.R. S. Woodger, officiated at the graveside and W. Beavan and Son had charge of the mortuary arrangements. Pallbearers were Messrs. J. Bruce, H. Piper, J. Lockeridge, C. Withers, Irwin and Douglas Stuart.

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. My family tree. The original project begun about 1998. ID numbers less than about 6,000 Canberra and Queanbeyan Pioneers. The next 30,000 begun about 2004. Sourced almost entirely from HAGSOC's excellent 'Biographical Register of Canberra and Queanbeyan'. The project began when I decided to add siblings, spouses and parents for a relation with an entry in the Register. 12 years work. Wagga Pioneers. I moved to Wagga and thought I would extend the Queanbeyan project by adding people from Wagga Wagga & District Family History Society's 'Pioneers of Wagga Wagga and District'. About 10,300 people added over about a year. Tumut Valley Pioneers. During the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020, I decided to extend the above projects by adding pioneers of the Tumut Valley. Initial sources were Snowden's 'Pioneers of the Tumut Valley' and 'Relict of ... Lives of Pioneering Women of Tumut and District'. Excellent references published by Tumut Family History Group. I've also added material from newspapers of the time - especially, death records, obituaries and weddings from 'Tumut and Adelong Times'. This project is in its early stage and might take a few years. I plan to extend to the upper Monaro (Adaminaby, Kiandra, Cooma, Jindabyne). I upload new information to this website about every 3 months. My motivation for these projects is to provide public information for people seeking to trace ancestors and what became of them. Much of the information I provide can be difficult to find. 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.
