BRINKWORTH, Thomas
Thomas began his working as a broadweaver in the Cotswold village of Newington Bagpath, Horsley near Nailsworth in Gloucestershire. After his marriage to Elizabeth Harvey (another broadweaver) in 1834 at Horsley, they had three children: Joseph, George and Mary. However, as there was no future for home weavers as a result of industrialisation of cloth manufacture during this time, he decided to emigrate after being persuaded by emigration agents to start afresh in the new colony of South Australia. He moved to London where he worked briefly as a tailor before gaining passage on the Somersetshire. He began life in Adelaide sawing wood in the government forests for six pence a day plus rations. When he had accumulated enough capital, he grew wheat at Nailsworth, where he lived before building a house (in 1842) at 39 Smith Street, Walkerville. While there, he was recorded (in 1843) as having 8 acres of wheat at "The Pinery". He was a founding trustee of St Andrew's Anglican Church at Walkerville, where two of his children were the first to be baptised, and was able to reserve a family pew for his ever increasing family. In 1851,with his two eldest sons, he went to the goldfields near Bendigo in Victoria, returning with sufficient gold (which he hid in the axles of his wagon to avoid being robbed) to buy farmland at Lower Light, which had been made available for settlement in 1855. Drought and crop failure here prompted him to move after three years to newly surveyed virgin land at Manoora (Chinkford) where he was much more successful as a wheat farmer. He became partner with his son-in-law Ernst Siekmann, who had married his daughter Mary, in the building of a steam flourmill in nearby Saddleworth. He continued to produce wheat at Manoora until his wife Elizabeth died in 1881, upon which he sold his farming assets and retired to live with his son Peter, also a wheat farmer, at "The Olives" in Gulnare. He is buried in Georgetown cemetery.

GOLSDMITH, Tamar NURIOOTPA. December 8. — An old colonist, Mrs. TamarPage, died on Tuesday morning. She was born in 1825, and arrived from England with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Goldsmith, in 1839. They first settled at Goodwood, but later on removed to Morphett Vale. Mrs. Page was twice married, her first husband being Mr. Salt, who died in California. She married Mr. Page in 1853, and they settled in Nuriootpa in 1881. Chronicle Saturday 17 December 1904 page 40
GOLDSMITH, Charlotte The death occurred on Saturday, of Mrs. Charlotte Page of Dover street, Malvern, who was born at Tranfield, Sussex. England, in 1837. She was one of the oldest colonists in the State, having come to South Australia with her parents, the late Mr. and Mrs. Goldsmith in the Somersetshire in August, 1839. She was present at Col.onel Light's funeral. Mrs. Page's parents first resided in Gouger street, Adelaide. Mr. Goldsmith, who was a sawyer by trade, helped in the construction of the wharf at Port Adelaide, and walked there and back, to and from work, every day. Mr. Goldsmith later began farming where Goodwood now stands, and his wife and daughters carried on dairying. There was then only one house near Unley road, and Mrs. Page used to go there, to pay for the paddocking of cows. The park lands none were covered with scrub, and Mrs. Page could recall, playing with other children where the railway station now stands. She attended a school kept by Pastor Abbott, and a Sunday school superintended by Mr. Fetherington, a Baptist minister in Adelaide. The family walked to Hindmarsh for divine service. Mrs. Page recollected tribal fights amongst the blacks. The tribe which lived on the Adelaide Plains soon died out. On her eleventh birthday Mrs. Page went to Noarlunga, to keep house for her father —her mother remaining temporarily at Goodwood. The blacks were very numerous at the mouth of the Onkaparinga. When the gold rush of the fifties started, Mrs. Page's brothers were among those who left for Victoria. After Mrs. Page's marriage, in the McLaren Vale Congregational Church to Mr. Richard Page they engaged in farming pursuit. The year 1867— known as the "redrust year"— affected them seriously, but they still held on. When land was opened upon Yorke Peninsula, they were among the first persons to settle there. Mrs. Page struggled through the trials of a pioneer's wife and the cares of bringing up a large family. After the death of her husband at Minlacowie, in 1890 Mrs. Page and her sons carried on farming. When prosperity had at length crowned their efforts, Mrs. Page came to Adelaide to spend her declining years. But she could not be idle. When the war broke out, she, being an expert at her needle, started working for the Red Cross Society, and made on an average a shirt a week for soldiers until the Armistice. Mrs. Page was for many years a member of the Baptist Church, and for the past 12 years has been connected with the Unley Park Baptist Church. Of a family of 10, seven survive her— Mr. E. A. Page of Minlaton, Y.Peninsula; Mrs. T. R. Smith of Murray Bridge; Misses A. D. and M. M Page, of the Grange and Malvern; Messrs. G., E, and O. R. Page, of Moonta and Myrtle Bank, and Rev. A. E. Page, B.A. B.D., of Seacliff.
