DEATH OF MRS. JANE MOUNT.
Another of the old identities of Tumut passed away at her residence, "Rose Cottage" Tumut Plains Road, on Friday morning last at 2.15, death being due to heart trouble. She had reached the ripe old age of 80 years. She had been suffering from heart affection for the past 5 years, off and on, Dr. Clouston invariably giving the patient relief previously, by his prompt attention to calls for his services. She was confined to bed for a fortnight before she died, and was given all the nursing care and medical attention that was possible. Deceased was born at Berrima, and came to Tumut when about 5 years old, the late Mr. Thos. Lindbeck, of Mondongo, being her guardian. Later she engaged with Mr. William Shelley, of ''Woonona,'' and it was from there that she went to Adelong to marry Mr. William Mount, at the age of 19. Mr. Mount was then on Forest Camp, Tumut Plains, and there they resided for 40 years, engaged in farming pursuits. The subject of this obituary was a clever nurse, Particularly in obstretic cases, which she practised even while she was resident of Tumut Plains and later, 22 years ago, when they came to live near Tumut in the home in which she died. She was noted for her great kindness of heart to friends and neighbours and for the charitable proclivities which endeared her to all with whom she came in contact as well as to a legion of friends. And all was done with no direct object of pecuniary reward or recompense. Her life was centred first in the welfare of her husband and the rearing of her family, yet she found time for all these appreciated acts, ministering to the sick and needy. There are two surviving daughters, Mrs. Wm. Emery (Susie), and Mrs. Arthur Nuttall (Martha), and one son, Charles William, all of Tumut. One daughter (Ada); predeceased her by 28 years. The funeral took place on Saturday last, Rev F. W. Rettie, Rector of All Saints, performing the last sad rites at the grave. The casket-bearers were six grandsons, viz: George and Ray (twins) Mount, William Mount, Herbert Emery, Alfred Emery and Percy Nuttall. The remains were laid to rest in the C. of E portion of the New Cemetery alongside those of her husband, who died 18 years ago. There are 16 grandchildren (including Mr. Herb Mount of Tumut) and 6 great grandchildren living.
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.
