An Accident in the Bush.

BEAUFORT.- Mr. Absolom Crocker, sen., of Raglan, was cutting wood on Saturday in the Bush at Mount Cole, when a limb of a tree broke and fell on him. He was knocked down, and in falling came in contact with the blade of his axe, which cut open the side of his face almost from the temple to the neck. He managed to attract the attention of a passer by, who took him home. Dr. Eadie, of Beaufort, had to insert 20 stitches to close the wound.

DEADLY CHRISTMAS GOOSE.
BEAUFORT, Wednesday - Absolom Crocker, of Raglan, yesterday morning breakfasted on the remains of a Christmas goose which had been left in a pan over-night. Some hours later he collapsed, and Dr Jackson found that he was suffering from ptomaine poisoning. It is expected that he will recover, although he is not yet out of danger.

WEDDING.

A very pretty wedding took place in the Raglan Church on Thursday, Sept. 17th, when Mr Ernest William Smith, third son of Mr and Mrs Henry Smith, of Mildura, was married to Miss Emily Esther Crocker, second daughter of Mr and Mrs James Crocker, of Raglan. Rev. W . B. Jessop (Anglican) officiated.

The church was beautifully decorated with wattle blossom and ivy by the girl friends of the bride, and presented a very charming appearance. As the bride entered the church on the arm of her father, "The Voice that Breathed o'er Eden" was sung by the very large gathering of friends. The bride was charmingly attired in a beautiful dress of Honiton lace over white silk, and wore the customary wreath and veil, and carried a beautiful bouquet of white camellias, violets, and asparagus fern, with satin streamers (the present of Mrs L. Watkin.) Miss Flo. Crocker (sister of bride) acted as bridesmaid, and was neatly attired in cream embroidered voile, with pink sash and hat to match, and carried a bouquet of jonquils and violets. Mr Jack Waldron acted as best man. Bridegroom's present to bride, cheque; bride to bridegroom, travelling rug; bridegroom to bridesmaid, gold brooch, set with amethyst and pearls. After the ceremony a wedding tea was partaken of at the residence of the bride's parents by about 40 guests. Rev. W. B. Jessop presided, and the usual toast list was honored. The happy couple left by the evening train for Melbourne, amidst showers of confetti; the Beaufort platform being crowded. The bride's travelling dress was brown cloth, trimmed with silk, and buttons to match, with Dolly Vardon hat. In the evening a large number of friends spent, a very enjoyable time, when dancing was indulged in, in Mr R. Pitcher's barn, until after midnight. The presents were costly and numerous. Mr and Mrs Smith's future home will be at Merbein, via Mildura.

(From our Correspondent).
The June appeal for the British Red Cross from the Raglan State school resulted in £8/13/ being raised. This amount has been forwarded to head quarters, together with a parcel of books and soldiers' comforts.

A quiet wedding took place at St. John's Church of England, Beaufort, on Tuesday, 12th June, when Miss Florrie Crocker, youngest daughter of Mr and Mrs James Crocker, of "Fair View," Raglan, was married to Mr Arthur Kneebone, youngest son of Mr and Mrs Philip Kneebone, of Surrey Hills, Melbourne. The officiating clergyman was the Rev. W. C. Wood. The bride entered the church on the arm of her father, wearing a pretty cream dress trimmed with silk and buttons, and a beautiful embroidered veil and wreath of orange blossom (lent by her sister, Mrs Ern Smith, of Merbein.) She carried a shower bouquet of white chrysanthemums, roses and asparagus fern, with white silk streamers. Miss Martha Pitcher acted as bridesmaid, and wore a pretty grey coat frock, trimmed with fancy stitching and buttons, and hat to match. She carried a bunch of pink and white heath, tied with pink streamers, and wore a gold wishbone brooch (the gift of the bridegroom). Mr Bert Crocker acted as best man. About 20 guests sat down to a wedding tea at the residence of the bride's parents, when the usual toasts were honored. The bride travelled in a light grey coat and skirt, trimmed with black velvet, and hat to match. Many pretty and useful presents were received by the happy couple. Four generations of the Crocker family were represented at the wedding tea.

A FATAL RIDE.
BEAUFORT, Tuesday
A fatal accident happened to Francis William Crocker, 14 years old, the eldest son of Mr. Absolom Crocker, at Raglan, yesterday evening. He was riding on a load of firewood when the horse bolted, through pieces of wood falling, and Crocker was thrown. The wheel of the dray passed over his shoulder and neck, and he only lived about five minutes afterwards. The accident happened within 200 yards of the house, and two of deceased's sisters were following behind the dray at the time.

The Ballarat Star (Vic. : 1865 - 1924) View title info Fri 22 Aug 1890 Page 4 BEAUFORT.
A miner named James Crocker met with a serious accident between 3 and 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. It. appears he was sinking in shallow alluvial ground at Duncan's Gully, about a mile and a half from Raglan, when the ground caved in on him.
It was about 10 or 15 minutes before he was dug out. His chest is badly injured. He is being taken to the Ballarat Hospital by the 1.30 train.

The Argus (Melbourne, Vic. : 1848 - 1957) Thu 5 Mar 1925 Page 17 OTHER DISTRICTS.

BEAUFORT.-Mr. James Crocker died at Main Lead on Sunday, aged 70 years. He was a native of Castlemaine. He was a widower, and leaves three sons and three daughters.

Notes
General:
At the 1841 census of England, in the neighbourhood where James Crocker and family lived, also lived Joseph and Jane Pitcher, and also several families names Childs (Childs was given as his first wife's mothers maiden name on her death certificate, although his mother was more likely Oliver rather than Child's). Also living with James Crocker and family was Prudence Bow, aged 50 years.

James Crocker was a Blacksmith in the Yapeen area. He was a widowed neighbour of Jane Tangey (Mitchell) and is thought to be the father of at least the last two children of Jane. He had 7 children with his first wife, but 4 of these children died in infancy.

On 1 October 2016, DNA results confirmed this theory. I found an Ancestry.com member who shares 50 cM of DNA over 5 segments with Margaret Ann Sullivan. This man's direct ancestor and the only connection so far found, was George Crocker, the brother of James Crocker, sons of James Crocker and Mary Ann Bow.
