It is indeed amazing what one can find in old Newspapers. This is The Sydney Morning Herald 18th June 1881. I found it hard to read and had to wonder what some of the words meant... It is a bit of fun though.
My Great Grandparents Richard William Cobcroft and Gertrude Bushell. I met Gertrude, when I was born the first thing my mother did on returning home was to take me into my Great Grandmothers room and place me in her arms! I don't remember it of course but this is the story I was told. Gertrude died almost 4 weeks after was born.
