Notes - Elizabeth died intestate but owned land of 20 acres in the Parish of Yarrowee, County of Grant (Allotment 14, Section 6) which was rented out for grazing. 'Land is fenced but otherwise unimproved and there are no buildings or improvements thereon and the same is used for grazing purposes. Land is of very poor quality and is valued at cost of 1 pound 10 shillings per acre. Land is rented at 2 pound a year. Total value 30 pounds.' There was no personal estate.
Peter's attests to himself, and John, Joseph and Thomas George Armstrong, Elizabeth's brothers, all farmers at Cambrian Hill, and her sister Hannah Jane Hetherington, also of Cambrian Hill, as her only next of kin surviving. Peter also states that he is the only person entitled to the administration of Elizabeth’s estate.
Hannah's husband, John Hetherington, butcher, of Broomfield, stated that he had freehold property at Broomfield consisting of three quarters of an acre to the value of fifty pounds.
Peter died on 4 January 1890, presumably before he carried out the administration of his daughter’s estate because on 21 January 1890, brother John, along with brothers Joseph, Thomas George and married sister Jane Hetherington, all of Cambrian Hill, state that they are the only persons lawfully entitled to share in the distribution of the estate. John also seeks to be appointed as the administrator.
Age, 21 January 1890: Probate notice.
Notice is hereby given that after the expiration of fourteen days from the publication hereof, an APPLICATION will be made to the Supreme Court of the colony of Victoria in its Probate Jurisdiction, that administration of the ESTATE of ELIZABETH ANN ARMSTRONG, late of Cambrian Hill, in the said colony, spinster, deceased intestate, be granted to John Armstrong, of Cambrian Hill aforesaid, engine driver, brother and one of the next of kin of the said deceased.
Dated this twentieth day of January, 1890.
S. F. Mann, Applicant’s Proctor, Ballarat.
On 1 February, John Wilkinson Armstrong, Windermere St, Ballarat, mason, signs an affidavit stating that he has property worth 50 pounds, consisting of household furniture and effects. This John is Elizabeth’s uncle, brother of her father Peter Armstrong. John Hetherington also signed another affidavit, this time stating that he has household furniture in Broomfield to the value of fifty pounds. Brother John is granted administrator of Elizabeth’s estate on 14 February 1890.
