Mrs Annie Hogan

 In April 1891 Timothy Hogan of Tarlee married Anne Helena Buckley in St Anthony's Church in Manoora. She was 23 and Timothy 27. The following account of her death was detailed in the Southern Cross a few short years later in 1897.


Death of Mrs. Hogan.—The numerous friends of Mrs. T. Hogan will regret to hear of her death, which occurred at Tarlee, on February 24th, at the residence of her father-in-law, Mr. John Hogan. Mrs. Hogan's illness (says our Tarlee correspondent) originated in a severe cold contracted about two or three years ago. Despite the adverse opinions of her medical advisers the patient had hopes of ultimate recovery up to a month prior to her death, when her condition became more serious. The deceased lady retained consciousness to the last, and received the Blessed Sacrament at the hands of the Rev. Father Lee on the Sunday previous to her death. 

Mrs. Hogan was the second daughter of Mr. Michael Buckley, of Manoora, and was in her 28th year. Sincere sympathy is felt for her bereaved husband and two little boys. The procession which followed the remains to their last resting place was a large one, consisting of about fifty vehicles, and the interment took place at St. John's cemetery, near Kapunda. Father Lee, assisted by Father Delahunty, officiated at the grave.—R.I.P.

Timothy subsequently married Elizabeth Kerin in 1906.
