Hi Lesley, Lynne and listers Lady FitzRoy and Lt Charles Chester Master are buried in St Johns cemetery Parramatta in section 3 row H grave 7 from "The Parramatta Cemeteries St John 's" book. Section 3 is the rear left hand side which is the higher part. I grew up in Parramatta and remember being told this story but it is really good to hear the full tale as I only knew that Lady FitzRoy was killed .
