Research Notes

Elizabeth's husband seems to have deserted her late in the 1860s, or she deserted him, and she appears to have possibly remarried in 1870 to William Henry Dexter (abt.1833-1903). I've searched for her death in Victoria and New South Wales under several different surnames without success. She had possibly died by 1903 when William Dexter died, or may have separated from him, as an in memoriam concerning him in May 1903 doesn't mention his wife. ^[2]

If this is correct, these seem to be the children that she had with William Dexter:

John Dines Gardiner Dexter b 1868 Beechworth^[3]

Alfred Dodden Dexter b 1870, Beechworth ^[4]

Alfred Lutteral Dexter b 1873 Beechworth ^[5]

Ernest Dexter, b 1876 Albury^[6]

Name: Elizabeth Blackman. Given Name: Elizabeth. Surname: Blackman. ^[7]

Born 15 May 1837. Mudgee, New South Wales, Australia. ^[7]
