The death notice of Silas Gill.

One of the death notices of my Great Great Great Great Grandfather Silas Gill, who died in Kempsey, NSW on the 10th of September, 1875. This was published in the Sydney Morning Herald on the 11th of September (Source: Trove). Silas was a prominent figure in the Macleay area, and he even has a monument dedicated to him. It's listed on Monument Australia.



Funeral Friday.

The death notice of my Great Great Great Grandfather Donald Mackay, who died on the 22nd of November, 1912. Published in the Sydney Morning Herald on the 26th of November, 1912. (Source: Trove).  I need to research more about him as I'm curious to know what made him one of Nambucca's pioneers.
