Hi Listers I have a note passed down thru family. "John Jenkins and wife moved to Robe in SA and bought the Criterion Hotel and lived there for some time. They sold and later bought another hotel near by. At this hotel Isabella's mother was only 5 years old when she sang to Royalty and they gave her a gold locket. Mr and Mrs jenkins then moved to Benyeo (Vic) and took up land there". This locket is still in the family and been seen by cousin. From obituary printed in the Narcoorte Herald. "Mrs Mary Rubeena Blacksell widow of Mr Richrd Blacksell died at Naracoorte at the age of 76 years. She was the daughter of the late Mr and Mrs John Jenkinson Benyeo (Vic.) was born there on April5th 1857. In her younger days mrs Blacksell was a splendid horse rider and use dto follow the hounds as well as take part as one of the beaters when coursing after wallabies on the Mosquito Plains. A locket was presented to her by the late DUKE OF EDINBURGH when he visited Robe while on a sporting expedition may years ago. Forty five years age Mr and Mrs Blacksell went to Naracoorte to live where her husbandfollowed farming and laboring puirsuits till the time of this death on June 10th 1931". Do any of these names look familiar to you? Heather Brooks (nee Barrett)
