The family moved to New Norfolk in 1851 and were living at the Cawthorn property Arundel in 1864 when her mother died.
She married John Henry CAWTHORN in 1870. They had 10 children.
They moved from Macquarie Plains to Wattle Grove in 1879. Her older brother moved his family to Diamond Hill near Cygnet, perhaps also around that time.
High Arundel c. 1916
Martha died in 1925 and is buried at St Marks Anglican Church in Cygnet.

Hi Sally
I am a New Zealand relative. Henry Mylam was my Great x3 Grandfather. My line is from Francis George Cockerill and Janet Kitchen.Their 3rd son John William Herbert Cockerill was my great grandfather and his 3rd daughter May Kitchen Cockerill was my grandmother I have a book on the Cockerill geneology published by Janet Miller. Makes for very interesting reading.
Hello Donna
Thank you for your comment and the reminder that I did not include Janet's 1994 book in my Cockerill blog notes.
Hi Sally, I am Helen (Helli)Campbell living in South Australia and a direct descendent of Henry Mylam, my grandfather x3 or 4? My grandmother was Eunice Cockerill. So interesting to read the history of Henry and the family. A large reunion was held in Tasmania which my mother, Edna Doyle attended in the 80s I think. Many New Zealanders crossed the ditch to attend.
