Biographical Notes

Hide Details Note: Charlotte Shearing came to South Australia very early in the colony's history. She arrived on the Buckinghamshire in 1839, the first year of settlement.

Charlotte married John Linn in 1843 at the Congregational Chapel in Adelaide. ‎[Was this Clayton Wesley?]‎ Charlotte was 18 years and John 24. Charlotte had a baby every two or three years between the age of twenty and forty-two.

They had their first child in 1845 and subsequently had nine more. In 1855 Charlotte's baby William died in infancy. 1860 would have been a difficult year for Charlotte, too, because her eleven-year-old daughter Mary Eliza died, as did a baby boy named Frederick. Another baby died in infancy in 1865. Four of ten children died, not a good outcome.

Charlotte died in 1890 aged 64 when her youngest child was 23 years old and her eldest 45.

Death 31 March 1890 ‎(Age 64)‎ South Australia, Australia
