And Harley was born Tamworth ... 1862 ... that's a good find there Wivenhoe...

And there's no births indexed for Benjamin C and Elizabeth A HYDE

I hope Jel has found the thread has been moved from the Armed Forces Board, and will be pleased with all this information about his possible wife and her background  :)

A newspaper item about the drowning of BENJAMIN CHARLES appeared in the "EMPIRE" in 1867

As an aside, I do find it interesting to note that ELIZABETH is not mentioned in death notice, Funeral Notice, details of drowning, or indeed, any of the newspaper items I have read about BENJAMIN and that includes the marriages of his children.

The child in such family notices is referred to only as son/daughter of B C FLIDE.

Perhaps that was just the place of a woman in those days, but it is odd.

I have forebears who were in NSW in that era ... the funeral notices never seem to mention the names of the wife/mother etc...  There's separate notices from each of the adult sons, sons in law, uncle, Grandfather, their Lodge, etc but no female names mentioned in "mine" death notices from say around 1860 until early 1900's ....

In one instance a notice (for my lot) reads along the lines of "The Relatives and Friends of Master ....... ........, nephew of the relict of ......... ........... of Sydney ....." and there's not a morsel of a mention of the lady's given names at all...   

Perhaps it was a "Victorian Era" thing...

Mmmm. Tough times.

I think ELIZABETH's father John  PEISLEY was a convict, though of a different sort from our usual transportees.

He got his ticket of leave  in 1845 and a note on the index (State Records) says he was  born n the Colony and tried at Bathurst.

As early as 1817 he (or his father probably) had a spirituous liquors license at Parramatta.  There was a Pub called the Coach and Horses in Parramatta  for which he held the license.

By 1838  a pub of the same name was at Bathurst with the same named licensee.
