-------------------------------

 

My g/mother, Lydia Sumsion was from the Sumsion Clan.  She was born in 31 Dec 1863, oldest daughter of Charles Sumsion & Eliza Ellen Bond.  They had seven other children.  The family immigrated in 1874 on the "Star of Bengal" to Melbourne and then lived in Melbourne for 4 years, Adelaide for 17 years and Broken Hill for 6 years where my g/mother died and was buried in the Broken Hill Cemetery.  I have only recently purchased her death certificate.
