Description: The Passing of a Brother.
[BY GREG. O'NEILL].
The death of my brother, John Allan, who succumbed to pneumonic influenza in
Sydney last week, removes a Queanbeyan identity of the early days.
At the time of his death he had settled down as a member of the staff of the
Government Printing Office, but for many years prior to that was a country
journalist of note in the towns of Milton, Gunning, Nyngan, and Bourke. He was a
gifted and fearless writer with a touch of pathos that won him hosts of
admirers.
As a bandsman he always held high rank. In the towns of Milton, Gunning and
Nyngan he organised combinations and many a musical career was started through
his efforts as tutor and master.
As a cornetist he was par excellence. I remember many years ago -he was then
at Wollongong -a high compliment being paid him by one, Von Mehden, who will be
remembered as the famous solo cornetist of the then notable Faust family. Mehden
was struck with his playing and publicly congratulated my brother after they had
joined in a performance.
And what melody! To the musical ear it was as the cool waters of the
rippling brook are to the thirsty wayfarer.
And turned, to please a peasant's ear,
The harp a king had loved to hear.
-Sir Walter Scott.
And as I write the homely scene of my boyhood days appears before my eyes
and I fancy I can hear his instrument speaking the words of Newman's glorious
hymn: -
Lead kindly light, amid the encircling gloom,
Lead Thou me on.
The night is dark and I am far from home,
Lead Thou me on.
Keep Thou my feet; I do not wish to see
The distant scene; one step enough for me.
He received his religious training on that old (and to memory ever dear)
picturesque spot of Christ Church School on the bank of the river opposite the
Old Mill; and the education he received in the Queanbeyan Public School he
carried worthily to the end. He was also a member of the Masonic Order.
John Allan leaves a widow who was Miss Margaret McTernan, daughter of Mr.
William McTernan of Mount Allen (via Michelago), and five daughters, three of
whom are married. The members of the family attended the funeral together with
Messrs. Holder and Stuart (sons-in-law) and Messrs. Lewis, William and myself
(brothers); Mesdames Holland, Plowright, Coyle and Reilly and Miss Kathleen
(sisters); Rev. W. T. Price (St. Matthew's, Botany), and Messrs. Holland and
Reilly, brothers-in-law; Messrs. A. Jackson and W. McNamara, (nephews); also
representatives from the Government Printing office and W. B. Phillip, the
latter firm with whom his daughter Cissy has been associated for many years.
There were many floral tributes, including two handsome ones from his comrades
of the G.P.O.

Dear Ian,
I attach for your information another article that I
will shortly be submitting to ‘Sydney Views’, the Journal of the Australian
States Study Circle, Royal Sydney Philatelic Club. You will no doubt recall me
forwarding a similar article to you in relation to the Boggy Plain Receiving
Office, in October of last year. Like the previous article, I think that this
would also be of interest to the membership of Monaro Pioneers.

Hi Ian
You have the wife of James Phillips, Bridget E. nee Sweeney as dying in 1883.
This is incorrect, this person was born 15/11/1883 (NSW Bdm 16841/1883) Bega &
died 11/12/1883 (NSW Bdm 7594/1883 Bega) (almost 1 month old) parents William &
Eliza.
I have been doing research for a woman in QLD on this family it has been very
difficult. There is quite a few who disappeared into thin air, including Bridget
Sweeney / Phillips / Burt, some off-shoots went to New Zealand & Queensland.
The birth and death dates have been calculated from the BDM Index using the
"modify criteria" button.
I have done a descendants chart but would have to ask the person if it is OK to
give to you.

Thank you Bruce,

Word was received from Corrimnal stating that Mr. Cornelius McTernan had
passed away last week. His end was not altogether unexpected, for his brother,
Mr. Wm. McTernan of Mt. Allen, had been sent for a week or so previous. He was,
an old resident of this district, but left for fresh-fields and pastures some
years ago, where he worked
as a carpenter in the South coast coal mines. He leaves a widow and four

Hi Ian ...

Hope all
this verifies the existence of Ivy Bernice Simmons [nee Wren 1891].
Not sure
if I'd have any other papers your "group" would be interested in. I intend
leaving the papers to the Queanbeyan Museum – sure they'd be interested
for historical purposes if nothing else.

Hi, some years ago I made enquiry about my McMillan's that were born and married
in Bombala, Nimmitabel, Cooma, Braidwood areas. There was not a great deal of
information on my John McMillan who married (registered Morpeth 1860) mary Anne
guearin,n who's parents were Michael guearin and Catherine bannon who resided
at dingo creek.
Ive since found Mary guerin's mother Catherine bannon, was previously married to
timothy Leary and had a Johanna and timothy Leary. Johanna married adam
Berberich in cooma 1852 they had
Johanna Leary died 1887 bombala st Nimitybelle Johanna and Adam berberich had 4
children boorn in Bombala between 1863 and 1873.. Adam owned extensive
properties there, later a confusion over ownership and all children left the
area, boy died young and all girls became nuns.
I am looking for any information on Catherine bannon and Michael guearin, gueron
gearin gearon guearine who resided at dingo creek est 1842- to 1886 the death of
Michael Guerin
Young johanna leary was noted in 1858 aged 15 as been assaulted by Hugh McNeal
while caring for her step father Gearins sheep near their Bombala
I am also looking for any info on Timothy Leary senior husband of Catherine and
looking for their son timothy Leary in area also.. I know this may be a long
shot but any info you may have id greatly appreciate... I hope to get down to
the area next year if possible, would also like to know where Dingo creek is
situated.
Thanks Trina de Cusack
Hi Trina,
It might be an idea if you purchase a transcript of
Michael's 1886 death.
That would at least give you something more to go on.
According to Adam BERBERICK's will, there as no confusion over his properties.
His wife was a drunk and he rented/leased out the properties to pay for his
daughters to be "sent to and kept" at school and pay for their care until the
youngest reached 21yo then the value of the properties be shared between them
equally. His wife was to get 25 pound and was allowed to live in the Nimitybelle
house (once it as finished being built) but the house was also to be sold and
divided between his daughters when the youngest reached 21yo.

Hi Ian
I am writing to ask if MP has, or, any MP subscribers have, any details,
references or any information regarding burials at Rockton (Private) cemetery
south of Bombala.
John Michael O'Reilly (medical practioner in Bombala) - my wife's Great
Grandfather, - died on 23 March 1906 in Bombala. He was buried on 25 March
1906 in what's described now as a private cemetery at Rockton, on land then part
of the property of Alec Brownlee. I have researched the Bega Valley Shire and
the Monaro Monumental Inscriptions but without any success.
[O'Reilly, Dr. John Michael was born 1831, Dublin, Ireland; died 23 Mar 1906,
Bombala, New South Wales (NSW Death Reg # 665/1906); was buried 25 Mar 1906,
Rockton near Bibbenluke, New South Wales.]
Was the Rockton Cemetery the resting place of just John Michael O'Reilly or was
it more than that for the region around Rockton? Is it a forgotten location with
no headstones or records?
Cheers, Errol Jobsz
Hi Errol,
Like you I checked the Monaro Monumental inscriptions Book and Rockton
"Cemetery" is not mentioned which indicates to me it is not a recognised burial
place. I recommend you put your request on our Facebook page.

Description: We have a framed portrait that we believe may be Herbert James
Brotherton. My sister-in-law rescued the portrait more that thirty years ago,
when it was being taken to a rubbish tip in the Bombala area. The clues she was
given included the names Moody(Mudy)/Miles/Brotherton/Yelds. My research leads
me to believe the portrait is possibly Herbert James Brotherton who died in WW1
in France. As he is only a distant ancestor of our branch of the family, we
thought someone more closely related may like to have it. Herbert didn't appear
to have any direct descendants. I can send a photo of the portrait, if you can
tell me how to do that.

Hi Linley,
Can you send a copy of the picture to me and I will add it to his record in our

Hi Ian, Here's a photo. It's the best I could do due to the reflections on

Hello David and Ian, I have received the recent newsletter, and appreciate the

my desire to find someone who would like to have the picture. If the newsletter
is not the way to get the message out, can you make a suggestion as to how we
might go about it, please.
Kind regards,
