Personal Notes:
Perhaps the growing family was one reason George Elworthy decided to move his tailoring business to 46 High Street in May of 1842. This took him into the tiny neighbouring parish of St Martin (only 1.75 acres) where Isabella Boucher Elworthy was baptised in October of that year.
Isabella was only 17 when in 1860, she wed almost 20 year old Henry St John MADDEN in the same chapel as sister Emma. The son of Irish parents, Honora nee AUSTIN and Henry Madden, Henry Jnr was baptised in 1840 at Rollands Plains near Port Macquarie NSW - the first Australian-born member of the family.

Arrived Sydney with her family in 1853 (aged 10). Married in 1860 (aged 17). She left Sydney with her husband and went to North Queensland.

Born in St Martin's parish, Exeter on 17 Oct 1842, Isabella Boucher (another variation of her mother's family name) was the youngest of George Elworthy's surviving children. She was only a little more than 17 when she married 20-year-old Henry St John MADDEN at the Congregational Church in Pitt Street, Sydney on 23 Jan 1860.
Witnesses were Emma Louise Elworthy and George Elworthy - (presumably brother George as father George was said to be very strict with his girls and not in favour of their marriages).

Marriage certificate witnesse by George Elworthy (father or brother?) and Emma Louisa Elworthy (sister). She spelt her name 'Boucher'.

In 1867, gold was discovered at the Cape River, North Queensland. Henry and Isabella rode on horse back (with their belongings carried by pack horse) the 2,000 km to the goldfields. They arrived at Cape river in June 1867. This area had only been 'explored' by Leichhardt in 1845 - 22 years before. No roads and bridges for most of the way. Quite a trip.

Her son Julian records it as 'My father and mother left Sydeny to go exploring thinking to find a fortune in gold, my father then 21 years old and getting over ₤5 per week wages, employed by Farmer and Jyles Business. They bought horses, saddles, both riding and pack, also rifles and revolvers, and all their belongings on the horses' back and rode through NSW into Queensland when the Cape River Gold Diggings Gold Rush (near Pentland, south-west of Charters Towers) broke out, so they decided to go through the blacks-infested country along a tree-blazed track, no wheel tracks, only a bridle track. What a journey! I think they have the honour of being the only man and wife to do that journey on horse back and lead pack horses. They had a few narrow escapes from the blacks. My mother was only 19 years old. How many would like that long trail today?'

Henry's death certificate shows deceased children by Isabella before 1922 as 2 males and 4 females.

She must have been at least six months pregnant when she arrived there as their fourth (and first child to grow to adulthood) child Alice was born at Cape River in December 1867.

This must have been quite an ordeal for that 24 year old young woman, to have come to live in the primative conditions that prevailed there, and, since the babies kept arriving to stay there for the next 30 years. She had had a genteel upbringing and had known 'better things'. So there is little wonder she eventually bailed out. Whether she had left Henry long before that is not known.

Dissatisfied with the rough life in the bush and her husband's drinking, she went to New Zealand with a man named Liptrot in 1897 (aged 54) taking with her her youngest daughter Ivy (Eva) (who later married a man named Smith.

Life hadn't been easy for Isabella and in 1893, aged 51, she left Henry and the rest of her children in Queensland and went to New Zealand to live, taking Eva with her. On 02 Mar 1907 Eva wed James Robert Smith.

Although Isabella and Henry Madden had been separated for 28 years, they never divorced. On 16 July 1921, Isabella died from cardiac failure at Auckland Hospital and was buried at Purewa the following day.
Henry wed his long-time companion Rosina WALKER and died on 12 May 1922. Ten years later Rosina also died in May and is buried beside Henry in the Charters Towers Methodist Cemetery.
