Hi Libby

I was a bit slow last night - if she died in 1860, that's only 2 years after Charles and some of the children would only have been small. Perhaps she moved back to Sydney after the separation, or his death.

also a marriage

Mary L Burrowes to William Connolly 1876 Sydney

As he was a policeman, there should be some more records somewhere - State Records, Police Museum ? The Police Gazette starts in 1862, of course when you need 1858 !

There are hits in the State Records databases - Intestate Case Papers and Probate Packets. Probate was not granted until 1884 - do you want me to see if there are any clues in the Probate Packet when I go out to Kingswood ?

I can also look at the Blue Books (Returns of the Colony) microfiche indexes for the earlier 1850s - I found them most useful for tracking people in the earlier years.
