  Notes	After William died in Corack in 1890, Eliza married William Bruce at Watchem in Victoria on 7 November 1894. The wedding was reported in the 'Donald Express' as follows: 'A large number of guests gathered at the residence of Mrs Free at Watchem on Wednesday for the celebration of her marriage to William Bruce, a well known resident of the Watchem and Massey districts. The Rev EOKnee of Donald, was the celebrant, and carried out his part of the contract to the satisfaction of all concerned. The day was beautifully fine, and the guests numerous and merry - so that all "went merry as a marriage bell". After the usual toasts and games, the happy couple left for home amid showers of rice and old boots, and the good wishes of relatives and friends'.

• Notes

  The 1841 census shows her living at Landbeach with her parents and older brother and sister. By the 1851 census she had had to move into the Chesterton Union House where she was living with her family (she was then nine years old). Eliza died on the 1st January 1925 and is buried in the same grave as William Free in the Corack cemetery. She was 69 years old this would make her birth date about 1869.... Some records use Flavel, Flavell, Flavelle NOTE: Eliza Flavell born Rugby XVL 409 Birth A-L Sept 1840 "Landbeach is a small parish, 1½ miles west from Waterbeach station on the Cambridge and Ely section of the London and North Eastern railway, and 5 north-east from Cambridge, in the hundred of Northstow, union of Chesterton, petty sessional division and county court district of Cambridge, rural deanery of Quy and archdeaconry and diocese of Ely; the road from Cambridge to Ely passes through a portion of the parish." "The soil is mixed clav subsoil, gravel and clay. The land produces wheat, barley, beans, turnips and potatoes. The area is 2,225 acres; the population in 1921 was 455." [Kelly's Directory - Cambridgeshire - 1929] She died in Watchem on 1 Jan 1925, aged 86 years. The following obituary appeared in the 'Donald Times' on 27 January 1925: 'The death of Mrs R. Bruce, of Corack East, took place at Corack, on Wednesday, January 7, at the ripe old age of 85 years. The deceased lady was one of the oldest and best known of the district's pioneers, and had come to Corack over forty years ago from the Mt Cole district. She was greatly respected throughout the district in which she had lived, and reared a large family. The sons are Ernest and Ben (Cowangie), Sam (Lalbert), William (W. A.), and George (Mornington) and the daughters are Mrs M A Donnan (Watchupga), Mrs G. Pickering (Watchem), Mrs N McCallum (Watchem) and Mrs P Gilchrist (Watchem). The funeral was largely attended, deceased being buried beside her first husband, the late Mr Free. Mr R E Carne had charge of the funeral arrangements. Four sons acted as coffin bearers'. Her death certificate states that her father was William Flavell , a roadmaster, and her mother was Maria Phillips, and that her issue at the time of death were: John (deceased), William (69) , Samuel (66), Phoebe Ann (64), James (deceased), Charles (59) , Alice (58), Alfred (56), Benjamin (55), George (50), Mary ann e (47) and Ernest (44).
