For “Died” 15 MAY 1864 of Susannah Wordley
DEATHS. On the 15th instant, at her residence Wallace street, Braidwood Sus[an]nah, the beloved wife of Mr. SAMUEL FINCH aged 44 years.
Read from the page image (media 406). The type in her given name is worn — it prints as SUS.NNAU — so the two restored letters are bracketed; Trove's OCR of the same notice reads '-On'the i 5th instant, at her resi debce^ Wallace street, Braid wood SUSANNAH, the beloved wife of SAMUEL FINCH aged 44 years.' Printed six days after the death. Until now the 15 May 1864 death rested only on the Braidwood cemetery index (quality 2); this is a contemporary notice naming her husband and her street.
