Biography

Susan Jane was last born of the three William Sheils and Jane O'Hara children. She was born after her father's 23 August 1859 death but whether in 1859 or in 1860 is not known as her birth was not registered and a baptism record has not been found. Her husband John James Keogh farmed at Gordonville on the Upper Bellinger River on a portion of the McLennan Estate property adjoining the farms of Henry and Lovell Gordon after whose family the locality derived its name. John James must still have been there in late 1890 as he signed a petition that year for the erection of a new school building. For a few years he may have been on the farm of his mother-in-law Jane Williams (formerly Sheils née O'Hara), situated between the Connell and Bayldon farms 1½ miles down river from Fernmount, he likely leased from about 1881 when the family moved to live in Sydney, and purchased at auction when her estate was finalised in 1889 and sold in 1899 when he moved to Kalang where he remained farming until his death.
