In the will of William James Ezzy, late of Spring Grove, in the Colony of New South Wales, farmer, deceased.

The heading of the probate notice. No place id is attached to this event: the tree's "Spring Grove" row is geocoded to the wrong Spring Grove (see the proposal note), so the locality is named in the summary instead.

Dated this 15th day of December, 1950. W. A. STONE & SIMON, Proctors for the Executors, Cooper-street, Macksville.

Trove OCR of the statutory creditors' notice; the ellipsis stands for the recital of the Acts. An official notice sworn on behalf of the executors, so a direct record of the death date and the residence. Its executors are her son Hermon Nelson and Robert Robertson, the husband of her eldest daughter Elizabeth — both named as surviving children in the obituary, which is what identifies the notice as hers.

NSW Government Gazette probate notice, quoted as the Trove OCR stands (the surname is mangled throughout; both readings are 'Richard Crossingham'). Confirms the 7 April 1917 death, that he was a retired farmer of Moorland, and that he died intestate - administration granted to the Public Trustee on 15 June 1917.

Entry 995 in 'RETURN OF ALL MALE CONVICTS ASSIGNED AND TRANSFERRED IN THE MONTH OF MARCH, 1833'. The break in 'la-bourer' is the OCR reproducing the column's line break. Columns: number, name, ship, trade, assignee and district.

For “Ticket of leave” 1843 of Benjamin Saville

Saville Benjamin, Andromeda Webb James, Norfolk 5

Under the heading 'THE undermentioned Prisoners of the Crown have obtained Tickets of Leave, since the last day of Publication', in the section COUNTY OF PORT MACQUARIE / PORT MACQUARIE. The list is set in two columns and the OCR has run the two entries together: the row is 'Saville Benjamin, Andromeda' (name, then ship), with 'Webb James, Norfolk 5' the neighbouring column. This corrects WikiTree, which dates his ticket of leave to 1833.

New South Wales Government Gazette 8 September 1848 (No. 97), p. 1147 Primary

For “Died” 23 JUN 1874 of Richard Crossingham

In the will of Richard Orassingbam, late of Holey Flat, in the Colony of New South Wales, farmer, deceased. ... who died on the 9th day of June, 1874, may be granted to Henrietta Crassingham, the widow of the said deceased

NSW Government Gazette, ECCLESIASTICAL JURISDICTION notice, quoted as the Trove OCR stands ('Orassingbam' is the OCR of 'Crassingham'). It names the widow Henrietta and gives the death as 9 June 1874, against the headstone's 23 June 1874 - the two disagree by a fortnight and the registration 5972/1874 has not been read. The person row carries the headstone date.

Wales, in its Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction, that probate of the last will and testament of the abovenamed John Field, deceased, who died on the 10th day of June last, may be granted to Margaret Ann Field, the sole executrix named in the said will.

Quoted as the Trove OCR stands. The notice is headed 'In the will of Jolm Field, late of Mount-street, St. Leonards near Sydney, m the Colony of New South. Wales, farmer deceased' - reading John Field, farmer, of Mount Street, St Leonards. 'Who died on the 10th day of June last' fixes the death to 10 June 1887, which is the date already on this event.

RE will of HARRIETT REBECCA NELSON, late of Nambucca Heads, in the State of New South Wales, widow, deceased. Probate granted 14th day of November, 1950.

Trove OCR. She died a widow — her husband William John Nelson had died in 1947 — and left a will, which is a small fact about her in its own right: the estate was administered from Macksville, the nearest large town to Nambucca Heads.

For John Field & Margaret Ann Albury

probate of the last will and testament of the abovenamed John Field, deceased, who died on the 10th day of June last, may be granted to Margaret Ann Field, the sole executrix named in the said will.

Quoted as the Trove OCR stands. THE HARD EVIDENCE FOR THIS UNION, and the only piece of it that is not a compiled tree: the Supreme Court probate notice for John Field of Mount Street, St Leonards, farmer, names Margaret Ann Field as his sole executrix - the position a widow holds. It is dated four months after his death and is a court record, not a transcription. WikiTree Field-3651 quotes the will itself, written 17 August 1881, as leaving her two properties: 'One farm on Oxley Island purchased 1857 (29 acres no189 in book51) and 25 acres from Margaret's father'.

For John William Bowler (1912–1969)

John William Bowler, late of Mascot, N.S.W., fellmonger, died 26th October, 1969, intestate; letters of administration were granted on 21st April, 1970.

Public Trustee's notice to creditors, Government Gazette of the State of New South Wales, Friday 24 April 1970, p.1571, read as full OCR text on Trove. The Trove OCR breaks the sentence after "died" and again after "1970."; those line breaks are the only thing altered in the quotation. Identification: the tree already records this man dying in 1969 at Mascot, New South Wales, and this is the only John William Bowler estate notice of the period; it gives the exact day, 26 October 1969, and his trade, fellmonger.

NOTICE is hereby given, that after the expiration of fourteen days from the publication hereof in the New South Wales Government Gazette, application will be made to this Honorable Court, in its Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction, that probate of the last will and testament of the abovenamed deceased, who died on the third day of January, one thousand eight hundred and eighty, may be granted to George Adam Worboys, of West Kempsey, Macleay River aforesaid, builder, one of the executors appointed by the said will, the other executor Charles Rogers, having died.—Dated this 29th day of September, A.D. 1883.

Read from the clipping PDF (media 405), which prints the text cleanly where the Trove OCR does not. An official notice, filed by the executor's proctor, fixing both the death date (3 January 1880) and the residence (West Kempsey, Macleay River) three and a half years after the event. Probate was applied for late, which is why the notice is dated 1883.
