  • Notes 
    • Elizabeth Welham was born in Sydney on12th August, 1844, three months before the marriage of her parents Richard and Eliza Watson, and was known all her life as Elizabeth Watson. She was christened in the parish Church of StLawrence, County Cumberland on 25th September, 1844 by J. Edmonston. The family moved to Newcastle shortly after her birth and they resided there until she was 14 years old, (about 1858). News of the gold discoveries at Rocky River, near Uralla then took the family to this centre and it was here Elizabeth met and married James Broad Lillicrap. Their marriage was celebrated at the home of her parentson 17th April, 1861. At the time of the marriage, James Lillicrap was a "Gold Digger". However, during the late 1870s James and Elizabeth were living at Yarrowyck and James' occupation was listed as" selector". The children born prior to this period were all christened at St John's Church of England, Uralla. During the late1880s the family moved to the Tenterfield area and purchased a home inHigh Street where Elizabeth remained until her death on 16thSeptember, 1924.
