Biographical notes:
Edmund Du Cane was a military officer and prison administrator. He obtained a commission in the Royal Engineers in 1848, and in 1851 was sent to W.A. to superintend works for the convict establishment. Later he acted as visiting magistrate of convict stations in the colony and became known for his progressive attitude. Mary Molloy was the daughter of John and Georgiana Molloy, pioneers of Vasse and Augusta districts of W.A. The Bussell family were also pioneers of that region. Capel Carter Bussell married Edward Reveley Brockman in 1863.
