OBITUARY MRS. MARGARET DAY As briefly mentioned in our last issue, the death occurred at the residence of her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. R. G. Sturt, Boundary-Street, Tumut, on Wednesday evening last of Mrs. Margaret Day, wife of the late Mr. Benjamin Day of Mondongo, at the age of 85 years. Deceased had been enjoying excellent health and death came suddenly as the result of a heart attack. She was a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. James Kell of Lacmalac, where she was born. Sixty-one years ago, at Tumut, she married Mr. Benjamin Day and they resided on their Mondongo property all their married life. The late Mrs. Day remained for another twelve months after the death of her husband eight years ago when she went to live with her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Sturt. Deceased was very devoted to her family and lived for them and her home. She was ever ready to assist those in trouble or with sickness. A keen gardener, her main hobby was her flower garden.

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.
