paragraph from page 30 of Errol Lea-Scarlett's book titled 'Gundaroo': The year 1855 which saw the Brownlow tragedy played out was a watershed in the history of Gundaroo. On 2 January Richard Guise died as result of an accident, leaving a widow (nee Martha Lett) who remained in the district with their two children, William James and Esther. Another pioneer, James Booth, died on 5 December at the age of 58, leaving a widow and nine children, and John Jobbins died on 8 January , childless, but survived by his widow (nee Sarah Wilford). Jobbins and his wife, in local lore important figures but shadowy because they were illiterate and left no direct descendants, were a thoughtful and kind-hearted old pair who adopted the three children of Joseph Park, a farmer who died near Nanima in 1839. One of them, Mary Ann Park, on her marriage to Joseph Thomas Andrew Styles in 1853 came with him to live at the Tallagandra homestead, Gundaroo. John Jobbins's brother, Edward, a stonemason by trade, was also in the Gundaroo district, residing with his wife, Rebecca, at Back Creek where he died in 1870, leaving a family which included three sons through whom the family name has remained alive. Of all the events of the year which opened with the deaths of Richard Guise and John Jobbins none, however, exceeded in impact the arrival of a group of weary passengers by Brumrny's mail-coach at the Traveller's Home one Sunday evening in February , for they included Wishart's nephew, a lanky, nineteen-years old Scots youth named William Affleck.
