Does anyone know of the whereabouts of copies of the Gunning Leader, published from July 22, 1876 until July 1, 1879, or the Gunning Times which was taken over by the Yass Tribune on October 2, 1888. I have tried indexes and catalogues, but they could still be hidden somewhere. The Index to Newspapers held in various repositories does not even list them. John Waters Melbourne

Hello Carole The Biographical Register of Canberra and Queanbeyan is available from The Heraldry & Genealogy Society of Canberra at PO Box 585 Canberra 2601 email [email protected] for $38.50 or $46.00 posted. If you have an early settler like James Wright it will certainly be worth buying as there would be intermarriage with other pioneer families of the district and you may find that you have heaps of connections listed.

John I don't know anything about Stoney Hole , however old parish maps for Gunning are available online from: http://www.lpi.nsw.gov.au/maps/pmap/search/pmap_websearch.display Just type in "Gunning" where it asks for Map Name. The Gunning you are after is in County King. Karl Bossard Canberra

A Gunning resident recently showed me where remnants of several cottages existed on Stoney Hole Creek, near the road to Gundaroo. He also stated that the original main road from Goulburn to Yass passed by that area. Old Parish maps appear to show parts of a disused road leaving approximately the present highway near Mt Pleasant, crossing Lerida Creek near its junction with Cullarin Creek and heading south, but only parts of it are shown. A map of 1881 notes that permission had been given to close the visible section. Does anyone have any information on the location of the original southern road in the vicinity of Gunning. It appears from birth records I have, and from a directory dated 1872, that there was, at least in the 1850s and 1860s, a settlement known as Stoney Hole, near Gunning. Any information would be welcome. John Waters Melbourne

Hello Nardia and list. Apologies if this has already been answered in the interim. I have NO personal knowledge to assist with, however a quick look through the cemeteries indexed in the 4 volumes of "Monumental Inscriptions in the Bega Valley Shire" by the Bega Valley Genealogical Society Inc., does NOT seem to include any at all for Perico or Burragate. Try contacting the society by e-mail, as they are very knowledgeable and helpful.

Hello AUS-NSW-SE-L, Apologies for my tardiness, I have been transcribing a book and was too busy to get to this. I don't know if anyone has thought to do this but I have edited the original email containing the details of the trial in accordance with the Judge's directions, and here is what the "evidence" now looks like. The "view" of this is interesting. ______________________________________________________________________ William Randall Newspaper Report. 24/1/1879. Yass ???? William Randall (on bail) was charged that he did at Binalong on the 23 November last ----- with intent to do grievous bodily harm, one Elizabeth Randall. Prisoner: Pleaded not guilty. Mr.Healy prosecuted for the Crown. The Crown Prosecutor stated the case, and called: Elizabeth Randall, who deposed: I am the wife of prisoner and live at Binalong; I remember 23rd November last; .......he was swearing, and I told him to stop, he said he would not; I told him if he did not stop I would hit him with a brick; I did not hit him; he struck me with his open hand on the side of the head; he was standing up; I don't know whether he hit me with ----- ---- ----- ---, when I came to myself I saw blood; I may have hurt myself in falling I can't say; I was stunned and fell down and the blow knocked me over; I was sitting by the fireplace; there was no fender; the floor is brick; when I came to myself I was bleeding at the side of my head; there was a small cut; I was weak from the loss of blood; Mrs.Gibson came over immediately; I was lying on the bed; I don't know if Mrs.Gibson came over a second time; I was in bed two days; I did not feel much pain. I am telling the truth; I don't wish to prosecute. - no wife does. Jane Ryan deposed: Prisoner is my grandfather; on the night of 23rd November last; prisoner picked up a boot and threw it at grandmother, but I did not see her hit with it; I saw her bleeding; that was after prisoner picked up the boot; I saw the prisoner beat grandmother with his hand; I made a mistake when I said at the Police court that the prisoner was beating my grandmother with a boot; he beat her with a closed fist; I went over to Mr. Gibson's; I have not been talking to my grandmother about this case; I gave the boot to the constable. James Gibson deposed: I am a laborer, residing at Binalong; I remember Jane Ryan coming to my place on 23rd November; I went over to the prisoners place in consequence; the old women was lying on the floor bleeding from the head; I found a gun-barrel on the floor. I saw spots of blood on it afterwards; it was lying near the old women; she was lying near the door, and afterwards moved to the fireplace; the gun-barrel was kept in the fireplace; it was outside the fireplace when I saw it; I gave it to the constable; I saw it; I gave it to the constable; I saw the spots of blood towards morning; I went home and came back again, the prisoner was where I had left him; the old women was very weak, and still bleeding; This time I noticed the blood on the gun- barrel; I have had no conversation with the prisoner. To His Honor: The blood was near the bottom of the gun-barrel, near the breech; did not notice if the blood was wet or dry; it was in the constable's hands; I did not take it to the police; I showed it to the constable; I tried to stop the blood and then brought the police to the house; I don't know whether the gun-barrel was handed by me to the constable or not. To Crown prosecutor: The gun-barrel produced is the barrel I saw; it then as it now is; I swear I don't know whether the blood spots were wet or dry. To a juror: The wound I saw in the women's head was a small one; I have seen the gun-barrel before; the stock was then broken. To His Honor: I mean half a pint when I say a good quantity of blood. To prisoner: I observed the blood on the gun-barrel when I took it from your house; I have not wiped it. witness examined the gun-barrel to see if spots remained. To his Honor: The blood is not on the barrel now. Jane Ryan recalled by a Juryman: Grandmother had a cap on when prisoner hit her; I saw the cap afterwards; I saw that the cap was torn; I didn't know how it was torn. Was he guilty or not guilty? ................................................................... If the Judge can please comment as to whether the above is correct, and if all jury members would read this and re-consider where necessary. Comments to the Judge. In the various Australian States, alternative verdicts are only permitted where the Statutes permit, and if the Statutes do not allow for this, then an alternative verdict is allowable only IF THE PRISONER HAS BEEN PRESENTED ON A LESSER CHARGE. A verdict of Gross Negligence would not be allowed, as it would be illegal, again unless he was charged with "Causing Injury by gross negligence." Also to the Judge, just in case she seeks to use it, nowhere in Australian Law, can a Judge over-rule a Jury's verdict and replace it with their (the Judge's) own verdict, as can be done in some US States.

Hello Judge,I cleaned up my computer the other day and deleted the trial, as I thought it had been finished with, so I can not reread it, 1.All I know is that he is Not Guilty, as there are too many if's and but's ,and heresay, 2. He might of been a brutal man ,and he might of been pushed too far 3 The head wound was on the back of the head, and only a small mark, 4. Who said that the floor was clean,I can not see how the floor was clean, if you where drinking, the place wouldnt be clean 5 Did some one clean the floor and the area before the police came?? 6 She didnt press charges ,Why. 7 The judge had it in for him,and the family. 8. Who said he intended to hurt her,a spur of the moment thing. 9.If he was drunk, how can he be guilty of gross negligence, he could of been out cold, 10 What and where was the daughter, she must of cleaned her mother up, or the mother cleaned her self up.

Dear Jury: It is my understanding this letter never went to the group. I am sending it again. Juror #1 has answered. But, I will leave this letter as it was. This way I won't have to write it all over again. So, Juror #1 please send your answer to the group so we can discuss it. Here is the letter again with the original format: It is now time to start again. I believe we are all here. I am attempting to get this show on the road with some sort of organization. It seems the best place to start is with juror #1. I am requesting that juror #1 write the group letting us know your determination. RESPOND TO THE GROUP... Juror #1: You may state Mr. Randall is guilty as charged or not guilty as charged. You may in the alternative find him guilty of gross negligence. Then please state your reasoning. The prosecution has presented it's case. You must determine if the defense has been able to rebut the assertions of the prosecution. The burden of proof in is the responsibility of the prosecution. The defendant only need to refute the prosecution. If the defense has done this to your satisfaction then he is innocent. If on the other hand you find the defense has not rebutted the assertions then he is guilty. Please refer to my prior jury instructions. At this point I am not imposing any punishment. If Mr. Randall is found guilty of either charge then the punishment will fit the crime and the person involved. All mitigating factors will be considered. Jury, after Juror #1 has posted their determination and reasons for their conclusion you should all respond in a free and open discussion on this list. SEND YOUR RESPONSE TO THE LIST. Please do not hold back. After each of you has responded we will take a vote again and see how it goes. If you are not all in agreement then juror #2 will post in the same manor as juror #1.
