Personal Notes: |
Charlotte Jane nee Pratt was born at Narellan. At age 17 she and the family followed alongside their bullock-drawn wagon from Campbelltown to Old Junee. They took up land at "College Farm" 2½ miles from the Old Junee Hotel where they grew the first wheat in the district. Charlotte worked as a domestic servant for Mr W Hammond of "Wyoming Station" where the family lived in the house with Mr Hammond as his wife had died. Chalotte married William Hardiman and moved with him to their land on the Albury Road, and at Uranquinty where Charlotte was able to use managerial skills which she had learnt from her brothers to help her husband run the hotels which he had licences to. William and Charlotte also reared her nephew, Martin James Pratt, 13th child of her brother, George Pratt and his wife Esther nee Pacey. Esther died at the birth of Martin. Martin James Pratt took the surname Hardiman.
William Hardiman was a carrier. He married Charlotte Jane nee Pratt. The couple owned land at Ashmont, but the railway was to go through their land, so they bought where the Albury Road now comes in. They built their house there. They then gained a hotel licence and opened The Junction Hotel, where the Starlight Service Station now is. They also lived at Uranquinty and built the Uranquinty Hotel, one of the first buildings there. William also gained title to land called ‘Claremont’ at Sandy Creek near the school. |
