A Mother's Anguish

150 years ago today Ellen Curry, my 1st cousin 3 times removed, died tragically aged just 16 months. I cannot image the torment her mother, Mary O'Reilly, felt as she saw her toddler running towards her on that fateful day.

I found the following report of Ellen's death via Trove in The Maitland Mercury & Hunter River General Advertiser (Page 3 Tuesday 13 May 1862).
