The Tumut and Adelong Times 25 Nov 1930
OBITUARY THE LATE MR. JAMES STANFIELD Mr. James Stanfield, the near nonagenarian, whose death occurred at his home at Railway Town, Tumut, at 7 a.m. on Monday morning of last week, was born at Freeman's Reach, Windsor, in 1841. He came to Tumut 75 years ago, and lived at West Blowering for over 60 years. He left the Old Land at the age of nine years and went to Victoria, at the time of the big goldfield rushes. Then he came back into N.S.W., and in 1852 was the medium through which the wife of his employer was rescued from the 1852 great flood, in a bark canoe on the Murrumbidgee River below Wagga. Then he made his way to Tarcutta, where he found employment with the late Mr. Mate, shepherding on Tarcutta estate. He came from there to Tumut spending his remaining days in this district. His first employment was on Blowering with the late E. G. Bridle, and afterwards he took on carrying to Kiandra gold mines with a bullock dray and later with a bullock waggon. When the palmy days of the gold-boom was waning, he selected at West Blowering on the property now occupied by his son, David, and engaged in maize growing. In 1872 he married Miss Selina Maxwell, who bore him 14 children, four dying young. The living are Miss Mary Ann (Tumut), William (Currango), Louisa (Mrs Jas. Naughton, Gilmore), Thomas (Talbingo), Bert (Lankey's Creek), Edward (Blowering), David (West Blowering), Elsie (Mrs. E. Brown, Newcastle), Ethel (Mrs. C. Moll, Bingara), Emily (Mrs. C. Lennan, Albury). There are 25 grandchildren and two great grand-children. Deceased had been ill for only a week, and previous to that had been enjoying good health, with the exception of periodic set-backs usual to one of such an advanced age. Deceased received the last spiritual consolation of his church from Very Rev. Fr. Sharkey and the Sisters of the Tumut Convent, and during his illness was cared for by many kind friends and neighbors. Dr. J. W. Mason attended him throughout his illness and did all that medical skill could for him. The coffined remains were removed from his late residence to the Roman Catholic Church on Friday afternoon, thence on Saturday morning the funeral cortege, after prayers had been offered up by Very Rev. Fr. J. Sharkey, P,P., moved to the Tumut new cemetery, where the burial took place. The pallbearers were Messrs Thomas, Bert, Edward and David (sons), C. Moll (son-in-law) and James Naughton (grand-child). Messrs W. Fuller and Son ably carried out the mortuary arrangements. |

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.
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.
