NSW Death 12519/1888 CUSKELY ELIZABETH - LAURENCE DIED ARMIDALE - ARMIDALE * 17 Nov 1888

Australian Town and Country Journal (Sydney, NSW) - Sat 8 Dec 1888 p.17
MISCELLANEOUS.-The following, recent deaths are announced :
... Mrs. Cuskely, relict of Peter Cuskely. The deceased had lived in Armidale for thirty-four years.

Something is not right. Perhaps the Peter who married in 1868 was the son of Peter and Peter senior was married to Elizabeth who died in 1888.

Looking for the deaths of 2x Peter and Mary nee Sly.

Thanks,

Dave

Not sure if this is of any help or not. Elizabeth was in trouble for concealment of birth.

----- spoke on her behalf, showing that the girl had been left in charge of a family of orphan brothers and sisters, and after ---

Thanks gibbo.

1891 that would have to Elizabeth junior. ??

Peter senior married Elizabeth in Ireland. Her death looks to be the one in post #1.

[DaveHam9]

DEATH.—We regret to record the death
of an old and esteemed resident of this
district, in the person of Mrs. Peter
Cuskelly, widow of Mr. Peter Cuskelly,
whose demise we reported a short time
ago. ...

TRUE CHARITY.—By the death of Mrs.
Peter Cuskely, as noted in another co-
lumn, the children are left orphans, and
are poorly circumstanced. ...

Different spelling of the name on the same page.


Peter junior married Mary nee Sly and they died a few months apart.
