The Advertiser (Adelaide, South Australia) Wed 9th May 1923 p11.
KILLED BY ANONYMOUS LETTER
The receipt of an anonymous letter is said to have caused the death of Mrs. Freegard (76). of Bremhill. Wiltshire. who died two months after her marriage to her third husband. Mrs. Freegard's second husband died early last November. After a very brief courtship Mr. Jacob Freegard proposed to her and was accepted on Christmas Day, and they were married at the village church on January 17. The bride-groom had also been twice married before, and had celebrated his golden wedding with his second wife. Mrs Freegard's health had always been good, and her friends believed that many years of life lay before her. A few day after her wedding, however, she receive an anonymous letter, which said :- "You might have paid your late husband's funeral expenses before buying a wedding dress. If you don't die, the blaze will run away with Jacob." The letter greatly worried her. She began to suffer from heart attacks, and finally died, a victim, so her husband declares of the anonymous letter-writer.

Thanks Merlin,

I understand clearer the parents for Garnet born 1881 charlcutte are John Freegard and Katherine Freeth, Garnet Freegard married Isabelle Bruce Kerr, which i did not know about.
Samuel F Freegard was born in 1911, i have also ida Isabelle freegard born 1913 in kingaroy queensland and Robert Leslie born in 1920 Kingaroy Queensland.

Seems to be clearer now but i do not know of any other births if their are any.

Many thanks Azurich

Thanks Jenn about the NAA website it proved useful for several relation links, also many thanks to Logan H i find this interesting i think it is Jacob Freegard of 1844 or Jacob of 1856 but it does not mention his age in 1923?
Also if Mrs Freegard kept the name and Mr took on the Freegard name so i am not sure about this but very interesting to see this.

Thanks Azurich
