Hi Everyone
I am researching a Martha Walker who was born in Aberdeen Scotland abt 1822.
I can find in Trove a death notice for her, that she died on 10th December 1878 aged 56 at St.Lawrence in Queensland. She was well known in Rockhampton Qld.
She is buried in the St.Lawrence cemetery but her Gravestone is mostly unreadable.
If anyone can find any information on her it would be great.Thanks

Very strange I can't seem to find her death registration

The only other mention I can see on trove is advertsing she has shares in a gold mining company.
