Personal Notes:
The Tumut and Adelong Times 1 Jun 1926
OBITUARY The death occurred at The Rock last Wednesday night of an old exGundagai resident in the person of Mrs. Somerville, snr., widow of the late Thomas Somerville, and mother of Mr. James Somerville, of Jones' Creek, aged 85 years. Deceased had been living with her daughter for some years and was quite active for one of her great years up to a week or so before her death, when she was forced to take to her bed. Her son left by car on Thursday morning to be with his mother in her dying moments, but found on arrival that she had passed away a few hours previously. The late Mrs. Somerville is survived by three sons and two daughters, viz: Mr. J. Somerville, Jones' Creek; Mr. H. Somerville, The Rock; Mr. T. Somerville, Oakley; Mrs. Richardson, The Rock; and Mrs. McDougall, Yarrawonga. Her remains were brought to Gundagai by train on Friday morning, and left for the old home at Jones' Creek at 2 o'clock in the afternoon for interment in the Church of England portion of the North Gundagai cemetery.

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.
  1. My family tree. The original project begun about 1998. ID numbers less than about 6,000
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
