Biography
Jessie was born in 1842. Jessie Bonney ... She passed away in 1916. [1]
A MERSEY PIONEER
DEATH OF MRS. JESSIE KIMBEBLEY. We regret to have to record the decease of Mrs. Kimberley, which occurred in Launceston early yesterday morning. The deceased lady, who was the widow of the late Mr. Frederick Kimberley, was one of the oldest residents of Devonport, and related to the Parker and Roberts families, old Don identities. About 30 years ago Mr. Kimberley built the Commercial and Family Hotel on the Esplanade, at present occupied by Mr. W. J. M'Glade, and there Mr. Kimberley died some years ago.
Mrs. Kimberley had been living privately, and to outsiders was apparently in her usual good health, but an internal disease was developing, and last week she entered a hospital in Launceston, where a serious operation was performed on Tuesday. It was reported as successful, but the patient's advanced age was against her, and she breathed her last as above stated.
The family are all grown up, and consist of five sons — Ernest (Paloona), Eustace (Devonport), Augustus (Burnie), Arthur (Victoria), and Harry (Devonport). One daughter is married to Mr. J. C. Lucas, of Latrobe, and two resided with their mother. The sad news was received in Devonport with every sign of regret, as the deceased was of a kindly disposition, and during her long residence had made many friends, and no enemies. The funeral is arranged to take place tomorrow afternoon at the Don cemetery.[2]
