    3. Here's the last snippet Denise and Anne Their third daughter Arvilla Lindsay Married Patrick Dunphy at Wandiligong and they had four daughters Annie Catherine (Mrs Delany 1893-1970) Francis Mary (1895) Josephine Sarah (1897) Mary Helen (1901) They all became teachers and taught at Bright at Various times. Patrick died in 1917 and Arvilla continued to live in Bright until 1934 when she moved to Melbourne to live with her three daughters in Camberwell. She died September 1938. Dunphy family John Dunphy snr born Queens Co Ireland 1785 arrived with wife Catherine Wallis (b1804) at Parramatta 11 March 1854 accompanied with their seven children, their son William and wife Catherine had arrived three years earlier on the Emily 1850. The parents never came to Victoria. About seven of their children travelled to the Buckland. (more history if needed) Patrick Dunphy was 18 when he came to Morses Creek with parents William and Catherine Dunphy and their three year son Joseph, Sarah and Anne. Patrick went into business with his brother Fenton about 1868 in a butcher shop at Bell's Gully. Patrick continued to run the business, after Fenton moved to Wagga NSW, until he retired to Bright about 1910. Kerry (some of my line the Gerratys also married into the Dunphy's) Also did I give you the bio on James Fitzgerald another forty niner from Canada that was with the group that walked to Beechworth? Friend of Harry Pardue, first to find gold at the Buckland. Also see O'Day family children went to the States, seemingly set up a coach service in opposition to C & C.
