Death of a mother | Elizabeth Morrison 1914 (aged 58 years) Obituary DEATH OF MRS. A. DUNN, SEN. Another old district pioneer passed away to the Great Beyond in the person of the late Mrs. Andrew Dunn, sen. The deceased lady was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Morrison, of Mulgoa, and first came to the Rylstone district in the year 1849, to live with her brother, the late James Morrison, who had a farm called Dairy Swamp, and which the locality is still known by. It was there shortly after her arrival she met her late husband, the marriage ceremony taking place in the Dabee woolshed, churches in those days being non-existent in that part. After the marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Dunn took up their residence on the Narrango farm, which is still in the possession of the family. In 1875 they built the Olinda homestead and secured the land which now comprises the Olinda estate. After her husband's death the deceased lady continued on the land, managing her affairs and successfully running a dairy. Of frugal habits and thrifty nature, she always possessed a competence that stood by her in her old age. Olinda was always a welcome home to all who cared to call and the hospitality was unbounded, and in those days when the inhabitants were scarce and scattered, the meeting of neighbours was always looked forward to with pleasure. In the year 1896, the deceased lady, feeling the burden of increasing years gave up the farm and came to live in Rylstone, and right up to within a few weeks of her death, the old lady was active in her farm yard. She was a splendid specimen of a bush woman in every particular, and lived to the ripe old age of 87 years. She is survived by a family of three daughters - Mrs. Finlayson, Mrs. Benson and Mrs. Saxelby; and three sons - Messrs. A. Dunn, G. Dunn and T. J. Dunn. Her remains were interred in the Church of England portion of the Rylstone cemetery, the Rev. Walker: officiating, and were followed by a large concourse of friends and relatives. An In Memoriam service was held in St. James' Church on Sunday night. Mudgee Guardian, Thursday 19 February 1914, p. 12. Elizabeth Dunn Obituary |

(From Our Correspondent). KITCHEN TEA. A kitchen tea was tendered to Miss Lily Grayston in the Ginghi Hall on Friday, April 20, prior to her marriage to Mr. Clifton Dunn. Visitors were present from Rylstone. Breakfast Creek, Camboon, Lue, and Bylong. About 40 couples were present. Dancing commenced about 8 o'clock and continued until midnight, when a halt was called for supper. Mr. L. Taylor briefly explained the object of the gathering, but judging by the large collection of very useful kitchen utensils received, no explanation was needed. Mr. Dunn, on behalf of Miss Grayston, briefly responded. Much credit is due to the promoters, for the way they toiled to make the social a success. Mudgee Guardian, Thursday 3 May 1923, p. 18. Kitchen Tea Lily Grayston Wedding Bells. DUNN - GRAYSTON. A very pretty wedding was solemnised by the Rev. W. V. Thompson in St. Stephen's, Bylong, on the 25th ultimo, the contracting parties being Miss Lily May Grayston, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. T. Grayston, of "Maycoral," Bylong Road, and Mr. Clifton Walter Dunn, fifth son of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Dunn, of Rylstone. The bride, who was given away by her father, looked charming in a gown of ivory crepe-de-chene and radium lace, beautifully embroidered with bugle and silver beads. She wore the customary wreath and veil and carried a shower bouquet of roses, sweet peas, and asparagus fern, tied with white ribbon streamers. This and a gold bangle were the gifts of the bridegroom. The bride was attended by Miss Elsie Grayston and Mrs. J. Masters as bridesmaids (both sisters of the bride). The former was attired in a pretty frock of pink silk and radium lace, with black hat to match, and the latter in a frock of pink crepe-de-chene and morocaine with silver bead trimmings and black hat to match. Both carried bouquets of roses and asters, with ribbon streamers, which were the gifts of the bridegroom. The bridegroom was attended by his brother, Mr. Keith Dunn, as best man. The bride's gift to the bridegroom was a pair of diamond set sleeve links. As the bride entered the church the congregation sang "The Voice That Breathed O'er Eden." After the ceremony "The Wedding March" was played by Miss Galagher. A reception was afterwards held at the Bylong Hall, where over a hundred guests sat down to a sumptuous breakfast, catered for by Mrs. James Gettens and daughters to whom great credit is due. The Rev. Thompson took the chair, and the usual toasts were honored. Many useful and costly presents were received, including substantial cheques. The happy couple left by motor to catch the evening train for Sydney and Blackheath, where the honeymoon will be spent. The bride travelled in a navy costume, with grey hat and shoes to suit. Their future home will be at Cudgegong. Mudgee Guardian, Thursday 3 May 1923, p. 18. Wedding Dunn and Grayston |
Death of a son | Clifton Walter Dunn 17 May 1923 (aged 67 years) Shooting Fatality at Cudgegong. A YOUNG GRAZIER THE VICTIM. A Winchester rifle was responsible for taking the life of Mr. Clifton Waller (BoB) Dunn at his selection on Ironstone Creek, a few miles from Cudgegong on Thursday afternoon. The deceased was a son of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Dunn, of Rylstone. The circumstances, poignant with grief to the well known and highly respected relatives, have produced wide and profound sympathy. At about 12.20 p.m. on Thursday, the deceased called at the home of Mr. Edward Young a neighbor, having come from the direction of Cudgegong. He called out, “Hullo, Ted!” whereupon Mr. Young came out and asked him to dinner. Mr. Dunn replied, “No, thanks; I've had it” He was in perfectly good spirits, and asked Mr. Young would he help him dose his sheep the following day (Friday). He further asked Mr. Young to come to his place that evening and prepare for the work. This was agreed to, but before leaving, Mr. Dunn took delivery of a rifle, which deceased and Mr. Young had used to shoot a bullock some time previously. He put it in the bottom of the sulky carefully and inquired if the sight would be all right. When leaving, Mr. Dunn exclaimed, "We must dose those sheep tomorrow whatever happens." About 5 p.m. Mr. Young went to Mr. Dunn's house. Walking on to the verandah, he called out, "Hullo, Bob!" Hearing what appeared to be heavy breathing he walked into the kitchen and saw deceased sitting on a box with his back to the wall and a rifle between his legs. He spoke to deceased, who was bleeding from the head, but received no reply. [Mr. Young}(https://fionasuniverse.com/tree/Cudgegong%20Valley%20History/individual/X2396/Edward-Nelson-Young) then ran a quarter of a mile to Mr. James Pitt's place, and arranged for Mr. Pitt to proceed to the scene, while he hurried to telephone for the doctor and police. The deceased had never at any time talked of suicide. Dr. Lester and the police, from Mudgee arrived in due course, and in the doctor's opinion death was probably instantaneous. An inquest was held on Friday by the Rylstone district coroner (Mr. J. Macdonald). Sergeant Mills, of Mudgee, watched the case on behalf of the police. Dr. N. W. Hansard (Government medical officer, of Rylstone), who had examined the body prior to the inquiry, stated in his evidence that the bullet had entered the forehead over the left eye, and passed through the back of the skull. In his opinion also death was instantaneous. Sergeant Mills stated that he had found a 38-bore Winchester rifle in the room and an empty shell in it. A verdict in accordance with the evidence was returned. The body was brought to Rylstone that afternoon. The deceased had been a widower up till three weeks ago, when he married Miss Grayston, of Bylong. Two little daughters, Effie (8) and Daisy (10) survive, but fortunately are well provided for by their attached grandparents. Mudgee Guardian, Monday 21 May 1923, p. 7. Death Clifton Walter Dunn |
