Died at Jerusalem (Colebrook) Convict Probation Station 7 Sept 1842 This station initially comprised a lock-up, before expanding to accommodate a road-making gang. By the advent of probation a large number of the convicts were worked in chains. In addition to road-making and cultivation, a small gang of convicts were also tasked with mining a coal at nearby Wallaby Creek.
