Hannah Trueman BURKE (formerly UPTON)
A statutory declaration from Hannah Trueman BURKE of Clune, Upper Logan, Beaudesert, says that she was formerly the widow of William Henry UPTON who died at Rockey Creek on 11 Jan 1867. They were married in the parish of Mullabrack, County Armagh, 10 Jun 1857. (The person who gave me this information could not provide a source reference for the document at Qld State Archives.)
