This was the Farnham Park Gatehouse, which was the entry point through the Farnham Estate. Eliza would have passed by here often. A police officer was supposed to have resided here, and after he died, it has been said that he now haunts this house, and will put his hand on peoples shoulders, as if trying to accost someone.[7]
and was buried at Kew Cemetery.[22][23] Eliza was initially buried in a different plot at Kew Cemetery, but was transferred to the current position, to be with Judge Robert, and later her husband Hickman and two daughters.
Eliza's Last Will and Testament[24] was made out in the presence of her husband and his father, and her possessions willed to Hickman. She was apparently receiving an income from her father's deceased estate, which was used for the care of her children.
When Eliza passed, she left four children, from the age of twelve down to eight, four children who would have been devastated, and quite likely had their lives affected. It would be nice to find out what caused her passing.
Of her four children, only one carried the bloodline to another generation. Her daughters, although quite successful, never married. Her eldest son married, but died months later without heir. William who gave Eliza five grandchildren, was not married when he had them. Each of the five grandchildren however married and had children, producing sixteen great grandchildren from 1934 to 1963, 56 g.g. grandchildren from 1956 to 1993, and g.g.g. grandchildren from 1976, and g.g.g.g. grandchildren from 2003.[26] Although she missed seeing future generations, she left something we could look back to, and be thankful.
In more recent days, the legendary Mahogany Ship was located on the beach portion of their property, along the shipwreck coast.

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Eliza by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known mtDNA test-takers in her direct maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Eliza:
Problem is, in full screen, it looks better the original way. But thank you for the suggestion. I went through and tried about 5 different ways, and I think this looks better in full screen. Unfortunately on a narrow screen it doesn't look quite as good. But Thank you Stephanie.
