Hi Michael
I think we can safely scratch the Robert SHIELDS who si buried in Moonta.
According to his headstone he is the one who was born in Mochrum, Scotland
too.
He is buried alone, no wife Elizabeth with him and he died 17 Mar 1897 at
age 62 making his birthdate still 1835 and therefore a bit young for our
Elizabeth. The only other people in the above's plot are a daughter
Catharine who died 3 Oct 1892 at 28 and his mother (no name listed) died 6
Apr 1875 at 63. the monument was erected by another daughter Agnes GRIFFEN.
All of this begs the question - where is your Robert and Elizabeth ELLIS? I
did find
one burial in West Terrace for SHIELD, Elizabeth, bur 11 Aug 1907 at 89 y.o.
her address was listed as Home for Incurables. The birthdates aren't a
perfect
match though - still big question marks. I wonde if they stayed in the hills
area.
I will check the SA directoriesthe next time I am in the State Library
It is very frustrating trying to do research in the Genie Society. They
have some very good material in some respects but not the room for the big
bits. It is completely manned by volunteers as well and most of them don't
know what they are doing
I did confirm that James is buried in Upper Sturt. According to the burial
records he is by himself though. I don't know when these were compiled so it
could be before Emily died. I will sight the grave myself to see. My friend
who lives on the same road as the cemetery will be having dinner with us on
Sat
I tried to ferret out the submitter to the Bio Index but only have a vague
lead which I will follow up before giving up.
That's about all I have to report. Have a safe and pleasant journey if I
don't "talk" to you before you leave.
The weather, at this stage, looks pretty good for Sydney.
Cheers,
Kathy Creer
