Historical information

Mary Mease was born in 1829 at Stokesley, Yorkshire. She voyaged to Australia on the way and stopped at Port Adelaide. It was to be a short stay for cargo off-loading but due to the extremely poor road into Adelaide, the job took longer and the ship remained for a few months before heading back out for Sydney. In that time Mease wrote many letters back to family in England. Mease eventually went on to Sydney and also married Rev. J. Barnier of Sydney.
