Letter between Josephine W McKay and Fannie Jane McEwing

"Corvallis, Benton Co. Oregon
June 21, 1885

Mrs. Fanny McKay [Fannie Jane McEwing]
Dear Sister:
I received your letter last night and was very glad to hear from you and to hear that you were all well as this leaves me. I received a letter from Lilly [Lily McKay], Tilla [Mathilda McKay], and Flora [Flora Violet McKay] last night and they were all right.

We had a great deal of rain lately and some of the farmers are complaining of the rust but I don't think that the rust is very bad yet. Times are very dull here now and not much going on at all. They are not going to have any celebration here on the 4th of July. They have quite a picnic here yesterday there were two hundred Editors from Iowa here, and they gave them quite a reception it cost Corvallis about $500. I would have liked to go to the picnic but I did not like to dismiss school on account of it. My school will be out in three weeks and then I am going to the printing office to learn typesetting. It won't cost me anything to learn it for I can work for my board if I wish. And I would rather do that and save money. In regard to houses here in Corvallis it is hard to get a house to rent at any price for there are only a few houses in town to rent and they ask awful high rent for them. Most of the people own their houses and last winter a great many of the railroad men had to board there families out for they could not get any house to rent. But Pa said last winter when we came here that he was offered a house down at the Alsea Valley if he wanted it for nothing. But the roads were so bad at the time that we could not get down or we would have taken it. Bill must have had quite a walk, but the old man Hubbard is having a great time preaching down at the Bay. Tilla says they make awful fun of him and use his words for Bywords and the old man thinks he is converting them. I hope you folks will not give up the idea of coming to Oregon. I think Allen's will come too before long. Be sure to write soon.
With my love to all. I remain your loving sister.

276 Came to Launceston 1841 on the 'Ullswater' with their 8 children (mentioned in Launceston Advertiser (5/8/1841) and Cornwall Chronicle (7/8/1841)). William Medwin and his family were the first independent settlers in the Black River area.

From http://home.cogeco.ca/~jcosgrave/wycombe_barton.htm - Richard Barton married Sarah Medwin on 01 Dec, 1787, at High Wycombe

NOTE: Van Diemans Land - Part of NSW until 14 Jun 1825 renamed Tasmania 1 Jan 1856

BIOGRAPHY: From http://www.thecorys.com/sayer/d11052.htm - William (1798-1869) his wife Elizabeth Sarah (Cock) (1793-1868) and his eight children arrived at Wellington NZ from Wycombe, England on the Slains Castle in 1841. Conditions were not what they expected, so the Medwins boarded the Ullswater and arrived in Launceston later that year. The family settled on the east bank at Black River, where they farmed for many years. Their five sons, Edwin, John, Mathias, William and Thomas were all farmers as well, though Thomas later became a storekeeper in Church St. Stanley, in 1871. Thomas was born in 1837 in London and died in 1904. He had seventeen children; George, Mary, David, Charlotte, Rachel, Rachel, Herbert, Alice, Annie, Minnie, Lemuel, Arthur, Eliza, Thomas, Andrew, Philip and Leslie. Elizabeth Medwin must have been a resourceful woman: once when bushrangers Bradley and Connor called, planning revenge on William for having replaced Bradley services with the more reliable ones of a ticket-of-leave man, Elizabeth calmly tied up 60 pounds in her skirts, keeping 2 pounds visible. Since William was not at home, the bushrangers took food and the two pounds and went away, leaving the bulk of the family savings safe in Elizabeth's skirts. William, Elizabeth, their grandson Mathias and one of their daughters are buried at Stanley. This Mathias bought 310 acres of land from his grandfather, William, and settled with his Irish wife, Mary, and their ten children. One of their sons was named Luke. His property at Black River was called "Mayura" His wife Annie was well known for her bonnet and boots: on one occasion she walked from Flowerdale to Black River with a goose under one arm and a cow and a calf behind her. Luke and Annie's son Allan had property at Mawbanna where he lived with his wife Mary Ellen "Mollie" and nine children. Mollie was born in Cork and after serving with the Womenï's Army in France during WWI, she came to Tasmania with her husband to take up farming at Mawbanna, where she helped the local bush nurse. During her lifetime she built no fewer than five houses. During the 1940's the family moved to Black River, where the property had been left to Allan by Luke. Mayura is now known as Gateforth. 150 people turned up to the Medwin Reunion held at Wynyard in 1987.

BIOGRAPHY: FROM: http://www.fairbrassfamily.com/new_zealand.htm - The family came to New Zealand aboard the "Slains Castle" ship. This was the 11th Immigration ship sent out by the New Zealand Company, and the first to arrive at Port Nicholson in 1841. It had left Gravesend on 14 September 1840, and reached port on 25 January 1841. It weighed 500 tons and carried 6 cabin and 218 steerage passengers. The captain reported the journey as follows: 'I am happy to inform you of the safe arrival here on the 25th inst. of the Slains Castle - all well - having only lost four infants under 12 months old and having 5 births.'
