Chapter 9.4

Emily Ann Mosman 1853-1894

Emily Mosman’s parents 

Little is known about Emily. She was 20 when her mother Jane died. Dorothea had just married, George was 15, Lavinia 10, and Agnes 8. It’s possible that she stayed at Burrowel to look after the younger children.

She never married. The next thing we know about her is that she died at Paddington in Sydney at age 40 in 1894. Her brother in law Willie Fisher from Brandon arranged for her body to be brought back to Seaham. Willie was also her executor. 

Emily is the only family member to be buried with her parents at Pioneer Cemetery, Raymond Terrace.
