• Notes

  Anastasia or Hannah as she was known, was the daughter of Irish immigrants, Joseph James Shanley and Ellen Brennan. Anastasia was born in Newcastle on 8th August 1841, the first child of Joseph James Shanley and Ellen Brennan. Anastasia would have only been a small child when she went to Grafton with her parents, where her father was to work for Commissioner Fry in the Border Police. When Anastasia was 28, she married Edward Jordon also from Ireland. The marriage took place on Yulgilbar Station on the 28th January 1869. We are unaware of the cause, but Edward passed away six days after they were married, on the 2nd February. Edward was born in Cashel TipperaryIreland, and he arrived here on the "Ship Eleanor", with his parents and a brother and sister. On the 25th August 1874, Anastasia again married. This time to another Irish man, Edward Riordan. All we know about Edward, is that he came from Limerick Ireland. They were married at the Catholic Church Coraki. Edward was born C 1832. They had a family of eight children. Both are buried in Casino CatholicCemetery.
