Biography

George Bradburn was possibly the youngest son of Richard and Margaret Bradburn of Drung, Cavan in Ireland, and born in about May 1817.

Married Ann Livingston (or Levingston) the daughter of Francis and Sarah Livingston (maybe Levingston) in Ireland sometime before immigrating to Australia on the "Elizabeth" in 1845. He is described as a 27 year old farm labourer from Cavan in Ireland. (I will update this when I can ascertain marriage and possible births in Ireland before this date.)

Note that on this same voyage of the Elizabeth to the New South Wales colony was a 21 year old William Bradburn.

They had about 7 children all born in Australia between 1845 and 1864 when George passed away at Burwood in New South Wales, Australia.

The Newspaper reports of the day say: "The coroner's jury found that "Deceased, aged forty-seven years, came by his death from injuries accidentally received by falling from his cart on the evening of the 18th instant, and being kicked in the abdomen by his mare."

George was buried at St. Thomas' Anglican Cemetery on Coronation Parade, Enfield, New South Wales, Australia. A long Probate Process seemed to then commence as George had died Intestate.
