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.

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.

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.

The Ballarat Star (Vic. : 1865 - 1924) Sat 11 Dec 1920 Page 8 WEDDINGS.
Crocker - Humphreys. - A quiet but pretty wedding took place at "Mena, ' Beaufort. the residence of Mr and Mrs H. Cuthbertson (brother-in-law and sister of the bride) on 20th October, when Miss Elizabeth Breeze Humphreys, of Beaufort (third daughter of the late Mr and Mrs J. B. Humphreys) was married to Mr Oliver Josiah Crocker, of Mildura (second son of 'Mr James Crocker and the late Mrs Crocker, of Raglan). The Rev. E. H. Coltman, of the Beaufort Methodist Church, was the officiating minister.

The ceremony took place in the drawing-room which was tastefully decorated with lilies and strings of small wedding bells the latter being suspended from the ceiling. The bride, who was given away by her brother in-law (Mr H. Cuthbertson), was becomingly attired in a navy twill costume, with hat of navy crepe de chine, trimmed with gold tissue. She carried a handsome bouquet of white roses and fern. The bridesmaids were the Misses Verna Cuthbertson and Nellie Patterson (two little nieces of the bride), who wore dainty dresses of white, voile (hand-embroidered), carried bouquets of pink roses, and wore gold bangles (the gifts of the bridegroom). Mrs Coltman played "The wedding march" at the conclusion of the ceremony, and Geoff. Cuthbertson (nephew of the bride) hung a lucky horseshoe on the bride's arm as the newly-married couple were leaving the drawing-room. A number of relatives of the happy couple were the (guests of Mrs Cuthbertson at a sumptuous wedding breakfast. The Rev. E. H. Coltman presided at the festive board, and the customary toasts were cordially honored. The bride was the recipient of many valuable and useful presents (including a number of cheques). Mr and Mrs Crocker subsequently motored to Ballarat, and from that city travelled to Wangaratta, where the honeymoon was spent. Their future home will be at Mildura.

The Canberra Times (ACT : 1926 - 1995) Thursday 19 May 1994 - page 5
'Walsh St link to shootings by police'
MELBOURNE: The Walsh Street killing of two young constables in 1988 may have triggered the high number of fatal shootings by police in recent years, Victoria Police chief commissioner Neil Comrie said yesterday. "I suppose there may be some aspects associated with the Walsh Street murders and the Russell Street bombing.." he said. "There's no doubt there's been over many years a very violent criminal underworld in Victoria." Mr Comrie was speaking to Channel Nine about the disproportionately high number of fatal police shootings in Victoria.
Stephen Raymond Crome, 18, and Paul Ronald Skews, 35, were shot outside a real estate office on Monday in suburban Hampton Park after police were tipped off about an attempted robbery.
Their deaths brought to 18 the number of people killed by police in Victoria since 1988, compared with four in NSW in the same period.

The Canberra Times 15 December 1995 page 4
Coroner criticises police
MELBOURNE: There was a real risk that innocent bystanders may have been hurt when police ambushed and killed two men attempting an armed robbery in Melbourne in May last year, a coroner found yesterday. But Coroner Graeme Johnston said police were justified in fatally shooting career criminal Paul Ronald Skews, 35, and his accomplice Stephen Raymond Crome, 18. The shooting happened as they were about to rob Winning's Real Estate Agency in Somerville Road, Hampton Park, in Melbourne's south-east. Mr Johnstone said police did not take adequate action to protect members of the public who were in the area, apart from the real estate agency's staff. "The shooting by members of the Special Operations Group was lawful and justified in that all members fired after being put in reasonable fear that their own lives were at risk," Mr Johnston said. "But in the context of an operation with some of its management objectives specified as being 'safety of members of the public, police and the offenders', it was not a success."
