1. Alexander Crawford, son of Archibald Crawford and Flora Beeth, was born on December 14, 1799 in Campbelltown, Argyllshire, Scotland, died on August 20, 1862 in Caledonian Hotel, Murchison, VIC at age 62, and was buried in Murchison, VIC. The cause of his death was Ruptured blood vessel in the lungs.

Notes: In the early days much of the land was already occupied by squatters and there was a great need for labour on the properties, or "stations". To meet this need, as elsewhere in New South Wales, convicts were assigned to the owners by means of "tickets of leave" and the immigration programs of the day were designed to draw many free settlers to work for the land holders. Alexander Crawford was such a free immigrant who took his family to the Monaro almost immediately following their landing in Sydney. Their onward journey and subsequent experiences are related by his son, Archibald, in a book he published in 1925 entitled Eighty-five Years in Australia. It has been said by one of his remote descendents that Archibald dictated the script of this publication to his daughter when he was quite old and when his memories might often have not been quite accurate. However, his story is full of fascinating detail reflecting as it does the vicissitudes and lifestyles of early rural pioneers of the time.

As Archibald tells it, just before Christmas 1838 the Crawfords set off from Sydney by bullock dray for "Mt Elrington Station", which was owned by a Major Elrington. It was about 25 km southwest of Braidwood and close to the Shoalhaven River. The map overleaf shows its location and that of two of the other cattle stations with connections to the Crawfords ? Jingle-money and Arnprior, which will be in mentioned more fully in paragraphs yet to come.

Three other emigrant families were in the party en route to Mt Elrington, which had the women, children, luggage and stores riding on the dray and the men walking. For overnight shelter all they had was a large tarpaulin that was erected as a kind of tent. Sixteen miles out of Sydney they spent their first Australian Christmas Day under dreadfully hot weather conditions.

Archibald was then not much more than five and, leaving two of their daughters in Sydney, his father and mother took with them the baby, young Archibald, the remaining girls and John, the eldest of their children. The other family groups accompanying the Crawfords on their trek were Anthony Hay, his wife and three children; Malcolm McGregor, his wife and two children; and Lachlan Cochrane, his wife and one son. The Major had hired the bullock dray and its driver for their transportation, and this may have been as a back-loading from conveying his farm products for sale in Sydney as Archibald was to tell of similar arrangements later in his book.

The Australian midsummer weather was very hot and on the journey the "new-chums" were bothered by unaccustomed insects. Archibald tells of pitching their "tent" one night on a nest of bulldog ants that caused young Willie Hay considerable and loudly expressed distress when he "went to bed early"; the same mistake was never repeated! It was an exhausting journey and when they arrived at Mt Elrington "the men were footsore and suffering from the heat. Alexander and Mr Hay stood the journey well, but Mr McGregor at one time collapsed altogether."

Upon arrival at Mt Elrington the Crawfords found their accommodation to be very primitive S a slab and bark hut hardly more than 20 x 10 feet in size. This was divided into two sections comprising a partitioned bedroom and a living/kitchen/dining area, all of which had to be shared with the Cochranes. John, being adult, was fully employed with his father on the station where the "boss cocky", the Major, treated them with consideration. However, Archibald tells of floggings on the station, meted out to the convict workers for derelictions of duty. He says he could not equate this cruelty with the kindness shown to him by the Major.

After a year or so at Elrington the Crawfords moved to Jinglemoney Station, which is still shown on maps about 12 km about w.s.west of Braidwood and is also close to or on the banks of the Shoalhaven. In those times it was apparently fairly common in that region for men to be paid their wages in kind and it was at Jinglemoney that Alexander began to acquire his own stock S some sheep and soon a large mob of cattle. He also gained a head of cattle in liew of ,10 deposit he had lodged for the purchase of some land and the deal fell through. Such a growing asset probably led him to move to work at several other stations as the years passed. Archibald was ten when they ended up at Dry Plain Station and it was there, through the encouragement of one of the farm employees, a storekeeper called John McKinley, that he acquired the rudiments of writing and reading. He also mentions in his autobiography that his mother, Mary, always spoke Gaelic at home although outside it she could use English with reasonable skill. He remembers that she had a sweet voice and sang songs in Gaelic to them. Mary also spun wool on a spinning wheel made for her by one of her sons-in-law, William Brayshaw, and she knitted garments for her family.

It was about 1843 that Alexander Crawford obtained a property for himself. In partnership with a Charles McKeachnie (sometimes McKeachanie) they purchased the lease of "Bobyan" [sic] for ,20 but soon discovered they had to pay a further ,10 to the Government for previously unpaid land rent on the property where they ran 100 head of cattle. McKeachnie was later bought out by Archibald's brother John and William Brayshaw, probably in 1845 for Brayshaw is known to have been at Boboyan in that year. John's sister Flora had married William Brayshaw at Dry Plain in 1844. William was to die aged 77 on 19 November 1888 and Flora aged 70 on 10 May 1891. The graves of each lie side by side in Old Adaminaby Cemetery along with the burial places of other Brayshaws, some Crawfords and Lockers.

Another account of unknown source says that the Cowley area around Boyboyan was opened up by a John Gray, a Queanbeyan storekeeper, who employed Charles McKeahnie there from 1839 to 1844 to superintend a small mixed herd of cattle. McKeahnie, an illiterate Scots immigrant, had arrived in Queanbeyan at Christmas, 1848, and took control of Boyoyan when Gray left the district. After a few years the property passed to Alexander Crawford.

4. Elizabeth Crawford (Alexander¹) was born on December 2, 1827 in Killean & Kilchenzie, Argyle, Scotland, died on February 5, 1880 in "Hazell Dell" near Cooma, NSW⁴ at age 52, and was buried on February 8, 1880 in Adaminaby, NSW. The cause of her death was Cardiac disease. Another name for Elizabeth was Betsy.

Notes: Elizabeth was the fourth eldest of the eight children of Alexander Crawford and his wife, Mary (née McLarty). Her parents had married at Killean & Kilchenzie, Argyle, Scotland on 25 August 1818. They and their children were "brought out" to New South Wales by the bounty agents, Gilchrist and Alexander of Sydney. Elizabeth was about twelve when she, her two brothers and five sisters and her parents set out from Greenoch on "The Portland" on 24 October 1838 bound for Sydney. Approval for their movement had been given to them by letter from the Colonial Secretary dated 17 January 1838. They arrived in good health on 28 December 1838.

More about Elizabeth:

• She immigrated to Australia with family on the vessel “Portland” arriving in Sydney, NSW December 18, 1838.

Elizabeth married Joseph Woodfield, son of Charles Woodfield and Elizabeth Summers, on January 16, 1844 in Presbyterian Service, "Gailhieu" Goulburn District, NSW.⁵⁶ Joseph was born on July 9, 1819 in Bremhill, Wiltshire, England, died on June 11, 1860 in Cooma, NSW⁵⁷ at age 40, and was buried on June 13, 1860 in Christ Church, Cooma Cemetery, NSW Grave 79. The cause of his death was Congestion of membranes of the brain.

Marriage Notes: Joseph and Elizabeth were "joined together in wedlock" by the Rev. William Hamilton, minister in Goulburn of the Presbyterian Church of Scotland. It is later shown that the wedding took place at "Gailhieu", probably a property in the district. The IGI records the Presbyterian marriage as having taken place in the Bungonia Parish, Bungonia, which is 28 km east of Goulburn, but the exact location is not known. Their marriage certificate carries her declaration that she was a member or held communion with the Presbyterian Church; however, Joseph did not affirm his affiliation with any particular religious establishment although it is known that he was, nominally at least, of the Church of England faith. She was identified as Elizabeth Crawford, spinster, of Arnprior and he as Joseph Woodfield, bachelor, also of Arnprior. The witnesses to the marriage were Margaret Hamilton and Robert Johnston, but nowhere on the certificate is there a reference to Elizabeth's father, Alexander. Did this have anything to do with the fact that his daughter was marrying a man who had arrived in Australia six years previously as a boy convict.

Notes: Joseph Woodfield arrived in Sydney on the Lord Lyndoch from London, mastered by Captain William Stead with "O. Pineo, surgeon and super-intendent", on 8 August 1838 as one of the 330 all-male convicts it had transported from England. He had been convicted at the Somerset Quarter Sessions, Bath on 26 October 1837 and was eighteen at the time of his trial. Although he had no previous criminal record he was given a ten year sen-tence for picking pockets.

The Lord Lyndoch was a convict ship of 638 tons. On her third visit to New South Wales as a convict transport (ie, "Lord Lyndoch (3)") she left Woolwich on 28 March 1838 and Portsmouth on 4 April 1838 with a total of 432 souls on board. As well as Captain Stead and Surgeon Pineo they included Major and Mrs Campbell of HM 51st Regiment and Ensign Dixon. Travelling steerage were Sergeant and Mrs Ashendon with their two children plus 46 marines and 51 of the guards from several regiments accompanied by eight women and nine offspring, undoubtedly families of some of the soldiers. In addition, of course, were the convicts who were categorised as "lading" by the ship's master. The voyage to New South Wales was uninterrupted by ports-of-call and there was no outbreak of contagious disease (such as cholera) during the voyage. One isolated death had occurred a month or so after leaving England and, to quote the captain's report on arriving in Sydney on 8 August 1838, "In Scurvy we have 160. Several have died of it." This last was not remarkable considering the ship had not refreshed its food and water supplies over the eighteen weeks of its voyage from England.

In those days, detailed medical records had to be kept by the ships' doctors who accompanied convict transports to New South Wales. Surgeon Pineo was undoubtedly conscientious in this regard for his prescribed journal exists for this voyage of the Lord Lyndoch, as do his embarkation and final reports on the health record of the passage. His last account ran into eight crowded pages and was tendered to "Sir Wm. Burnett, MD, Physician General, HM Navy". The complete chronicle was kept between March 14 and September 6, 1838; it makes interesting, informative reading to illustrate how the British authorities kept the health and welfare of transported convicts, soldiery, guards and ships' passengers and crew in mind, at least during the first half of the early nineteenth century.

During this, the third voyage of the Lord Lyndoch as a convict transport, Pineo maintained a daily log of all cases presented to him for treatment en voyage including references to medicines prescribed, the patients'progress and cures effected. For instance he noted that he treated sixteen prisoners who had been scalded by boiling tea, of whom one died. Nineteen prisoners died en route to the colony ? eight from scurvy and eleven of old age and diseases contracted before embarkation. After passing the Cape of Good Hope scurvy manifested itself in the prisoners leading to the hospitalisation of 119 of them, although the non-convict complement on the ship seemed to have escaped the complaint.

The surgeon explained how he inspected the convicts twice a day, saw that they were kept clean, dry and exercised, dosed them with hot vinegar and chloride of lime on alternate days, wrote that their diet was "generous" and that they were in bed by 8 pm. The report goes into much more detail than this, indicating that the prisoners were treated as humanely as possible on such a long voyage, even making allowances for the probability that reality was not as benevolent as it was made out to be or as regu-lations insisted it should be. In any case, young Joseph Woodfield's name did not appear in the enumeration of prisoners falling ill or suffering accident during the voyage. No doubt his youthfulness and comparative simplicity guarded him against the moral and physical dangers of his voyage to Australia.

The only account of Joseph's trial so far discovered reposes in the Guildhall Public Record Office in Bath, Sommerset. The chronicle is very scanty, but it reveals that Joseph had an accomplice in his crime, one Daniel Brown, who may have been younger than Joseph because of the differences in the severity of their sentences. The two youths were found guilty of "stealing from the person of Frances Wiltshire 2 half crowns, 1 shilling, 1 penny" and "6 half pence the monies of Charles Wiltshire". Joseph was sentenced to "transportation 10 years" and Daniel to "8 Cal. (calender) Months hard labors [of work?]. 2 whipped one week Solitary" for the victimisation of the Wiltshire couple who might have been husband and wife, brother and sister, or in some other family relationship. The destiny of Joseph's pickpocketing companion is unknown, but there is no appropriate Daniel Brown listed in convict arrivals in New South Wales so he apparently escaped Joseph's fate oF transportation.

Convict indent records show that Joseph was fifteen when he arrived in New South Wales making 1823 his year of birth. However, at the time of his death on 11 June 1860 it was said that he was aged 40. This would have made 1820 his year of birth and thus he would have been round about eighteen when he arrived in Sydney. On the other hand, when he applied to the Australian authorities to be permitted to marry Elizabeth Crawford and his request was granted on 18 December 1843 Joseph's age was shown as twenty, which would bring his year of birth back to 1823. However, despite this conflicting evidence, Mormon IGI records show his date of birth as 9 July 1819 which may be taken as definitive. Perhaps the "15" shown on the convict indent sheets was an error in transcription as that number is easily mistaken for "18" or he may have put his age back at his trial in hopes of leniency in his sentence.

The record of Joseph's application to marry shows his "condition" as being a convict on ticket-of-leave and that he and his proposed wife (condition "free") were both residing at Arnprior. It is thus highly probable that young Joseph was on ticket-of-leave to work as a blacksmith at Arnprior or a nearby property, maybe near or where his prospective father-in-law, Alexander, was working as a farmhand. This would explain how he (Joseph) came to be on the Monaro five years after his arrival in Sydney.

Shortly after his arrival in New South Wales Jospeh, because of his blacksmithing skills, was undoubtedly assigned to a farming property, probably on the Monaro. The proof of this will probably never be found as the records of assignments from the Lord Lyndoch are missing. Moreover, the regular publication in the Government Gazette of the names of convicts who had been granted tickets-of-leave do not include Joseph Woodfield in their listings between 8 August 1838 and the end of June 1839. A further search of subsequent gazettes might be more successful in locating proof that such a document was issued to him. However, a ticket-of-leave for Joseph has been discovered (No.43/2462 dated 11 October 1843). It was issued on the recommendation of the "Bench" in Braidwood allowing him "to remain in in the District of Braidwood" (note the word "remain") where, of course, he was to enter government-sanctioned matrimony less than three months later. A copy of this ticket-of-leave appears on the next page.

With regard to Joseph Woodfield's transportation to the colony (Standing No. 38 1371, Indent 214) his personal particulars are given on the records as: Age 15; Education reads and writes; Religion protestant; Status single; Children nil; From Berkeshire; and Trade blacksmith's apprentice 5 years. His height was 5ft 3 ins; his complexion was "sallow", his hair was brown and his eyes were grey.

The records go on to give a full description of any body features that, should it prove necessary, could identify young Joseph as the felon in question. These were:

Particular marks or scars -- scar outside right eye -- mole on left temple -- three under left ear -- two scars on back of neck -- four moles, man and woman (tattoos?) inside lower right arm -- JWAO* and two moles on upper, mermaid and scars of burn inside lower left arm -- rings (tatoos?) on middle and third fingers of left hand.

*"JW" = Joseph Woodfield, but what or who was "AO" Were they the initials of the "woman" tatooed with the "man" on Joseph's arm?

Joseph Woodfield was serving a two year sentence in Goulburn gaol during 1851 and 1852.

A search of the Entrance Book for Goulburn Gaol revealed that Joseph Woodfield, native place Bath, Protestant, ship Lord Lyndoch, "bond" on arrival (in colony), blacksmith, was sentenced to two years imprisonment in Goulburn Gaol and was admitted there on 3 May 1851, but discharged on bail on 2 June 1851. No subsequent notation of re-entry admission to the gaol could be found in Goulburn's Entrance Book.

The circumstances that led to Jospeh's second time of imprisonment in New South Wales were described in full in two columns of The Goulburn Herald of 10 May 1851. In summary they were:

29 April, Tuesday evening: Joseph Woodfield, the landlord of the Boro Inn is drinking with his customers. Woodfield is affected by alcohol and argues with his servant, Thomas Hartneady, aged 23, who had also been drinking, about money that Borak, an Arab lodger at the inn, had placed with Woodfield for safe keeping. They "had some words", "came to blows" then go outside and begin fighting. Hartneady strikes Woodfield a "violent blow" over the eye with a stick from the woodheap. Each knocks down the other and Woodfield allegedly kicks his opponent while he lies on the ground. Hartneady becomes unconscious and is carried to his bed.

30 April, Wednesday morning: Mrs Woodfield (Elizabeth) goes to Hartneady's room to wake him. Unable to do so she summons Woodfield who finds that Hartneady is dead.

1 May, Thursday: Chief Constable M'Alister at Goulburn, on receiving a letter from Woodfield advising of Hartneady's death, takes Woodfield into custody.

2 May, Friday: About midday District Coroner Robert Waugh arrives at the inn, impanels a jury and opens an inquest into Hartneady's death. Witnesses give evidence. Dr John Gerard, medical practitioner, having arrived earlier, gives his evidence arising from his very comprehensive post-mortem examination with dissections of the body, which leads to his opinion that the victim was already dead when placed in his bed on the Tuesday night and that he had died from suffocation arising from the injuries he sustained in the fight, etc. Woodfield makes a voluntary statement, which according to the Goulburn Herald's account was "to the following effect"(part quote):

". . . on the previous Tuesday deceased and he .... came to blows, and both went out and fought. Deceased threw him (prisoner) down and put his knee upon his chest; the prisoner's wife pulled him off; deceased then ran to the woodheap and picked up a stick and struck prisoner a vio-lent blow with it over the eye; prisoner and deceased then fought after that, but could not say what happened as both had been drinking. After having washed his face in the kitchen, prisoner and the shepherd [alluded to in the evidence] carried deceased and placed him on his bed; deceased was alive at that time and an hour afterwards. The deceased .... had been about six months in the prisoner's service .... Prisoner and the deceased had always lived on the best of terms."

After two hours the jury returns and declares Joseph Woodfield is guilty of manslaughter. The coroner issues a warrant for the committal of the prisoner. Woodfield is probably taken back to Goulburn police station.

3 May, Saturday: Joseph Woodfield is admitted to Gouburn Gaol to await trial, probably at the next District Court sitting in Goulburn. Meanwhile he is released on bail on 6 June 1851.

Joseph had to wait two months for his trial, which was before His Honor Mr Justice Dickensen at the District Court in Goulburn on 7 August 1851. The charge was one of wilful murder of Thomas Hartneady on 29 April and his defending lawyer was a Mr Purefoy. The witnesses were the deceased's sister and a sheep drover who were present during the event and the already-mentioned Dr Gerard who had carried out the post-mortem on the deceased. The first two were cross-examined by Purefoy who finally "in a powerful address, during which he ably sifted the evidence against Woodfield, confined himself to the minor offence, and called the Messrs Hyland [sic], who gave the prisoner an excellent character." His Honor then "summed up (and) the jury, after a brief absence, returned a verdict of guilty of manslaughter. In passing sentence on the prisoner, His Honor regretted that the manner of settling a quarrel which had been resorted to by the prisoner, was very common in this colony, and he would do all in his power to put it down. He then sentenced the prisoner to two years imprisonment in Goulburn gaol [sic], with hard labour."

In all this it is interesting to note that in its initial report on Hartneady's death the Goulburn Herald referred to Joseph Woodfield as "innkeeper", the Goulburn Gaol Entrance Book described him as "blacksmith" and at the court sitting he was arraigned as "Joseph Woodfield, late of Goulburn".

More about George:

• Religion: Church of England.

30. Henry Woodfield (Elizabeth Crawford², Alexander¹) was born in 1865 in Cooma, NSW⁷⁰ and died in 1928 in Condolbolin, NSW⁷¹ at age 63. Another name for Henry was Harry.

Notes: According to Edith (Locker) Clugston there was also a stepbrother named Harry. As he is not shown on the above list he presented a mystery until it was disclosed that a Henry Woodfield was born to an Elizabeth Woodfield in Cooma in 1865. The father of this child was not designated. Joseph died in 1860 so it seems that Elizabeth had this child illegitimately early in her widowhood. Edith wrote that in her younger days she kept up a correspondence with Harry and after her marriage he "visited and came (to Hazelwood?) for a few days."

Henry and Annie and family apparently lived at Boboyan, raising turkeys, trapping wallabies and running brumbies before they moved to Bungendore about 1902. Roy served overseas in the AIF in World Wars I and II.

Assuredly there is a connection with this Harry Woodfield and a report that appeared in The Cooma Express on 30 May 1894 reporting the death by drowning in Naas Creek of "a boy named Joseph Allen, ten years of age, a stepson of Mr. Woodfield, of Bobeyan [sic]". This was probably Annie Allen's child, born before her marriage to Henry. The unfortunate youngster had been "out after the cows" and, on trying to return home by straddling a floating log to cross the swollen current (of Maas Creek, which ran through the property), he was drowned in mid-stream when the turbulence rolled the log "round and round".

Henry married Annie Watts in 1890 in Bungendore, NSW.⁴⁴³

In 1933 Jack won the Australian, French, and British championships, needing to win the American championship to complete the slam. An asthmatic who suffered in the muggy summer heat of Long Island , he was leading the Englishman Fred Perry in the finals of the championship by two sets to one when his strength began to fade. He ended up losing the match, and tennis immortality, by the final score of 3-6, 13-11, 6-4, 0-6, 1-6. He was also known for taking a shot of whiskey between sets if the game was tense.
Jack Crawford was inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame in 1979.
