Hi Sue

Yes, thanks for that. I have further found that he left a will. The
reference is in the Government gazette that Robert Elliott was a mail
contractor, late of Penrith, deceased and his wife was Ann.

I will check this reference further today. There is a probate packet for him
as well at State Records.

Hi Lorraine

That's great to get further information on Lucy Landers - thanks Ken for
your updated work. One further tiny addition is that the transcripts of St
Saviours Cemetery, Goulburn reveal that Robert Elliott d 18.2.1868 was from
Penrith - so I think any doubt as to his identity is removed.
Cheers
Sue McCarthy
