OBITUARY MRS. EMMA NEWMAN. The death took place at the residence of her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. H. D. Foord, Bombowlee, on Thursday last, of Mrs. Emma ("Granny") Newman, at the age of 82 years. Deceased was born at Lambeth, England, in the year 1853. Coming to Australia as a young woman she married, at Batlow, James Brucewater, to whom there was born one child, Gertrude (Mrs. H. D. Foord), who survives. Her husband died in 1901. With her daughter she afterwards returned to her birthplace and was married some years later to Charles Newman (also since deceased) and again came out to Australia. Some 6½ years ago she had a stroke seizure from which she never recovered, being an invalid ever after, having the constant care of her daughter who maintained a true filial spirit throughout the ordeal. The funeral took place on Friday last, the remains being interred in the Church of England portion of the Tumut New Cemetery. Amongst the many floral tributes were wreaths from Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Livingstone and family, Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Cork and family, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Harris, Mr. and Mrs. Hudson, the Misses Bridle, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Foord, Zillah and Frank, Bid and Pat, Mrs. Hartnett, Mr. and Mrs. I. Hargreaves, Mr. and Mrs. R. S. Hargreaves, Mr. and Mrs. W. Day and family, Gertie and Don, Mr. and Mrs. E. Anderson and family.

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.
