Personal Facts and Details

	Events of close relatives
Birth	19 March 1859 39 27 South Australia, Australia
Adoption	1866 ‎(Age 6)‎ Note: Ida's father died 1865 aged 45 and her mother in 1866 aged only 34. Ida was adopted by her step aunt Esther and her husband Thomas Saunders. The closeness of this relationship was demonstrated when Ida named her first son Thomas Saunders Shepherd.
Marriage	Charles Robert SHEPHERD - 26 October 1882 ‎(Age 23)‎ Saint Michaels Church of England, Mitcham, South Australia, Australia Source: Adelaide Observer Citation Details: 11 Nov 1882 Text: MARRIAGES. SHEPHERD - EMERY.--On the 26th October, at St. Michael's, Mitcham, by special licence, by Rev. W. H. Mudie, Charles R., fourth son of John Shepherd, Esq., to Ida Elizabeth, second daughter of the late Joseph Emery, and adopted daughter of Thomas Saunders, Esq., both of Hindmarsh.
Biographical Notes	Charles Robert SHEPHERD - Note: Both Charles and his bride Ida Emery were residing at Hindmarsh at the time of their marriage. One wonders why they chose St Michael's C/E at Mitcham for their wedding. The marriage was witnessed by Clara Elizabeth Saunders and ‎[her father]‎ Thomas Saunders of Hindmarsh. ‎[Thomas & Esther Saunders had adopted Ida Emery after the deaths of her father and mother.]‎ A year later in 1883 their first child was born, Myrtle Elizabeth. They were still living at Hindmarsh, where Charles was a carpenter. Their second child, a son, was named Thomas Saunders Shepherd for Ida's adoptive father Thomas Saunders, butcher of Hindmarsh, who with his wife had witnessed Charles' and Ida's marriage. It would seem that all of the eight Shepherd children were born in Hindmarsh.
