(this appears to be incorrect, and actual death was 12 Dec 1933) He was 96 and had lived in this area during the early pioneering days. He was born in Truro, Cornwall in 1831 and became an accomplished wood-worker. At age 18 he sailed for Australia aboard the `Warren Hastings` and arrived at Moreton Bay. The ship foundered on its retum journey. After a short stint in the Ipswich Railway work shops he went bush and arrived at Jimbour. He worked at horse breaking and carrying on the station. Some time later he and a mate set up a sawpit at Range`s Bridge said to be the first in the district. They supplied the timber for many well-known buildings in Dalby including the Greenbank Hotel. As a sideline they built a big punt and in flood times ferried teams across the river. The QN bank, the Plough Inn and Range`s Bridge Hotel were built from the timber they cut. Some of that timber may survive today in the old building that was part of St Columba`s School. After some years he teamed up with Dan Corkhill working as a wheelwright. But red cedars in the Bunya Mountains attracted his attention and he went there to become a sawyer at the Horse Gully sawpits; among the others there were Joseph and Gertrude Carbines. He witnessed the tragic event of Gertrude losing her life in childbirth. Though Joseph had gone for a doctor, they were too late to save the mother and child. All his life he remembered the incident- stating the child had died first and that it was a boy. 17 Oct 1854. Bodmin, Cornwall, England, UK. Tried and acquitted of Simple Larceny.

[18] Hi, and thanks for getting in touch!
I am not researching the Rasleighs as such. My interest is in Jessie Margaret Mary Monica Moreland (my cousin twice removed) who married Lawrence Lynagh, and their descendants.
I think Marie Elaine Lynagh must be a different woman (maybe a cousin) to the person you know, as a couple of people told me have given me details of Marie Elaine Shearer (nee Lynagh)'s death and one of those people was her son Alisdair Shearer (who would surely know!).
I attach a tree and a report on what I know of this family (from Rashleigh down). I hope it might fill in some gaps to you. I would be very interested to know anything about Jessie Margaret Mary Monica Moreland and her Lynagh descendants.
