| Death of a brother | Jethro White 25 March 1901 (aged 68 years) Deaths COONABARABRAN, Monday. Mr. Jethro White, the oldest resident and the oldest magistrate in the town, died this morning aged 72. He was on active service in the Kaffir war in the fifties. Daily Telegraph, Tuesday 26 March 1901, p. 6. Jethro White Death Death of Mr. Jethro White The news of the death of Mr. Jethro White, one of the oldest and most respected residents of Coonabarabran, will cause a general feeling of sorrow over a large area; for Mr White is well known not only locally, but in many other districts for his hospitality and general kindness of disposition. Mr. White had not been well for some time, but the complaint took an acute and serious form about 6th or 7th March, when he took to his bed under an acute attack of dysentery, and though at times he appeared to improve, he continued to grow weaker, and on Sunday all hope was abandoned, and he passed away at 20 minutes to 3 on Monday morning. When Mr. White was young, he was, like many of our young men, attracted from England to South Africa and went there, a boy of 14, and saw a good deal of active service in the Kaffir war. Afterwards, he came to N. S. Wales and had a varied experience in pastoral matters and was on the Snowy River rush (now Kiandra) in stirring times of '59 and the early sixties. He was the first storekeeper at Coonabarabran managing the business here for his brother-in-law Mr. P. A. Wilmott of Coonamble, but he afterwards bought the business, and carried it on himself till about three years ago, when business was not prospering, and he gave it up, and devoted himself to the farm which he had reclaimed from the wilderness when he first came here, and he worked at it till his sickness came on a few weeks since. He always had a love for farming and often said that farming and not storekeeping was his vocation; which was probably true for he was too good natured to grind the faces of the poor, which is one of the conditions of success in business. Mr. White had reached the allotted span being 72 years of age. He leaves a widow two sons, (both married), and three daughters one of whom is Mrs. W. Parkins of the firm of Starr and Parkins. His two eldest sons Arthur and George died before him. Bligh Watchman, Wednesday 27 March 1901, p. 2.

Mary Nevell Death LOCAL BREVITIES. The death is reported of Mrs. Nevell, of Riversdale, near Rylstone. Deceased was one of the old identities, and highly respected. The deceased lady's connection with the district dated from the pioneer time, when conveyance over the Blue Mountains was per bullock dray. Mudgee Guardian, Thursday 8 September 1904, p. 14. Mary Nevell Death THE CHURCH TRIUMPHANT Mary Nevell. Mary White was born in 1833 in the village of Simly, near Shaftesbury. She reached New South Wales with her father and family in 1849. After having lived for five years in Rylstone she married Mr. Thomas Nevell. They then bought a station property on the Castlereagh, where they resided for five years. In 1860 she returned with her husband to the Rylstone district, and settled at Riversdale, where she spent 26 years of active life in serving God by helping her fellow creatures. Being naturally of a retiring disposition, her light shone brightest in the precincts of her own home. We had the privilege of enjoying her sweet and blessed friendship for the last 16 months of her life, and during that time we were impressed with her characteristic patience and exemplary Christian life. Hers was no sudden conversion, but a "growing in grace" from her early childhood. Born of pious parents, she was encouraged to serve her Master while still young, and continued through the varied experiences of her life to have as her great aim, by her influence and example, the bringing of her dear ones to her Saviour. A few weeks before her call home she was seized with a paralytic stroke. Although she was not what could be termed a "sufferer" for many years, she was called to pass through seasons of intense physical pain on many occasions, especially during the later weeks of her life. As her end was simply a "falling asleep," due to heart failure, most of her dear ones were not permitted to see her again in life, but abound her bedside all of her large family - but one - of sons and daughters, who had gathered from distant and various parts of the State, assembled at this pathetic home gathering. A most impressive service was conducted in the church, after which the solemn procession was formed, and at their quiet country home at Riversdale she was laid to rest, in the presence of a large assemblage of mourning friends. Many and fervent are the prayers that ascend to the Throne of God on behalf of the stricken partner in life and his family, that He may endue, them with strength sufficient to their day.
