Notes
General:
William Duck
WO 12 5914
Regt. No. 738 Sergeant William Duck died on the 12 March 1842 at St Kitts (no cause shown). He was born in Harcourt County Hants England. His trade at enlistment was a painter. He was first enlisted on the 21 November 1825 and transferred from the 71st Regt. to the 47th Regt. on 25 February 1830. His widow Sophia was paid 4 pounds 3s 4d in St Kitts and the children are listed as Catherine, Elizabeth and Annaliese.
WO 12 5903 Private William Duck promoted to Corporal 9 February 1831
WO 12 5904 William Duck is listed as being a Private again in 1833
WO 12 5906 Private William Duck is promoted to Corporal 2 September 1834
WO 12 5907 Sometime between 30 June and 1 October 1835 Corporal Duck is promoted to Sergeant.

Between 2 May 1831 and 10 February 1839 all three men (husband's of Sophia) were in the same regiment and presumably knew each other and thus all presumably first met Sophia at pretty much the same time. From Ancestry.com via noellb_1 originally shared this on 31 Jan 2017


Possible children of William Duck and Sophia Gomez are

Annaliese (possibly Ann Kellam)
Elizabeth
Catherine

This is unconfirmed information and requires further investigation. As Sophia's first husband did not die until 1840 and she had 2 children born 1837 and 1838 with the surname Kellam, this may be those children. Also there seems no record of children other than Kellam and Glanville arriving in Australia with William Glanville and Sophiat.

Haven't found births or deaths of James and Frances Duffy nor have I been able to find the births of any of their children, although at least two of them are said to have been born in Victoria on their death certificates. There are probably more children, but I have found these using death records only as no births have been found so far. This requires further research.

MR DUFFY FAREWELLED,
Farmers from all parts of the Shire of Bungaree, and also from a neighboring shire, assembled at the Leigh Creek hotel "to do honor,' as the chairman (Cr Lee) said, 'to
one of their best citizens and treasurer, Mr W. J. Dully, who is leaving the district." Mr Duffy has been licensee of the Leigh Creek hotel for a quarter of a century, and there are few better known men in the district.

Had the weather been more favorable, there would have been a much larger gathering, as several apologies were received. After the toast of "The King;" had been honored, Cr W. B. Clark proposed the toast of the "Shire of Bungaree." He was sorry Mr Duffy was leaving them. Bungaree and Buninyong Shire had always been on amicable terms, and all would be sorry to lose Mr Duffy as a municipal officer.

Bungaree had followed in the foot steps of Buninyong lately in the making of roads. Bungaree had a higher rate than Buninyong. Cr Bibby responded, and said that
during the six years he had been in the council he had had a good time. Bungaree certainly paid a higher rate than Buninyong, but their roads were a credit to them. They were better than Buninyong, where the cross roads were neglected. Mr Duffy had been with the council about 25 years, and that fact alone spoke well of him. All would regret his departure, and they wished him success in the future. (Hear, hear).

Cr Davies said he had been with the council for 25 years. When he joined the council they had no roads, and he had been instrumental in getting them made. If their engineer and secretary remained with them for any length of time, Bungaree would have roads equal to those in any shire or borough in the Ballarat district. (Applause).

Mr B. Clark (Springbank) proposed the toast of "The Agricultural Industry." The district in which they resided was a favored one. Bungaree had good potato land, but he believed Buninyong would come into prominence in a short time in agriculture and in other ways. It had deposits of coal and iron, and he hoped that its hopes in that direction would be realised. It was said the people following agriculture were somewhat behind the times. There was something, in that ; but they were living in an enlightened age, and he hoped that people who depended on agriculture would endeavor to realise the possibilities of agriculture.

Mr B. M'Gowan responded, and said that agriculture was going ahead in Bungaree and Buninyong. Bungaree had good roads that could not be equalled. Farmers ought to be well pleased at things generally. As for Mr Duffy he had known him for the past 25 years, and no better licensee had stood in the hotel. (Hear | Hear.) He hoped he would come back to them. Years ago they had a bad road from Claretown to Bullarook, and the ratepayers decided to make it. Although it diverted traffic from Mr Duffy, he contributed his donation towards entertaining the men. (Hear, hear).

The chairman proposed the toast of "The Guest" (Mr Duffy). He felt honored at having that privilege, because he believed they had in Mr Duffy a citizen to be proud of. Mr Duffy had always treated the council with kindness, and was a good licensee. He had always been charitable and generous, and as treasurer of the shire he had been conscientious and business-like. That such a number had assembled to bid good bye to him proved that he was appreciated. In handing Mr Duffy a purse of sovereigns, Cr Lee expressed the hope that it would help to speed him on his way, and to remind him of his friends in the district. (Hear, hear.)

Mr J. S. Lazarus presented a gold cable bangle to Miss Duffy. Mr P. Fogarty, as a neighbor for 11 years, said he could not wish for a straighter man as a licensee. He hoped the incoming tenants would conduct the house on the same lines. He wished Mr Duffy long life and , happiness wherever he went.

Mr A. Turner was sorry Mr Duffy was leaving the district. He had had business relations with him and his father before him for the past 60 years, and he was held in great esteem. He hoped that wherever Mr and Miss Duffy went they would have all the joy and happiness they deserved.

Const. Jones said that no father or mother in the Bungaree district could say that Mr Duffy had helped to lead their boys astray. There could not have been a better licensee. He would never encourage lads to smoke, and he would always insist on good behaviour in his hotel. He was generous to a fault.

Crs Davies, Clark, and Bibby, and Messrs T. Walsh, J. McGrath, T Reidy, McGilligan and B. Clark supported the toast.

Mr Duffy said he never thought that he was such a jolly good fellow. He believed all that was said was meant - (hear hear) - and he thanked them for their good wishes and presents. He felt sure he was leaving friends that he might never see the like of again. Possibly he would be back in Ballarat again. He had to thank the councillors for many kindnesses, and he wished them all health, wealth and prosperity. He never expected such a gathering to do him honor, and he hoped he would always deserve their good opinions.

Songs and recitations were given by Messrs J. McGrath, Kennedy, Wescott, Crs Lee, Bibby and Davies, and Major J. S. Lazarus.
