Biography contributed by Katherine Blakeley

Also signed under 70 Mrs Walsh

Maggie Walsh and her husband David were living at Helena St, Caversham in 1893 and 1896.

David Walsh, an ex-mounted constable, died at Helena St in 1902. He is buried in the Southern Cemetery, in the same grave as Margaret Smith, aged 74, who died on 30 November 1932.

A newspaper notice reads "wife of William Smith, 116 Main South Rd".

A marriage between William Smith and Margaret Walsh in 1903 appears to fit the above.
