Personal Notes:
Tragedy struck in the year following Annie's birth - but events are a little hazy. I don't know whether the family had returned to Sydney or whether William was on a business trip but he died 'off Bourke Street' in Sydney on 15 Jun 1865. He was either found dead or died in suspicious circumstances as an inquest was required the following day. It returned a verdict of death from 'hydrothorax'.
