16 CHAPTER 2. SECOND GENERATION 1814 - 1849 Figure 2.3: Mary Anne’s daughter Susan Amelia Stewart of 21 giving her occupation as “House Maid”. On 9th November, 1852, she married William Joyce, at St. Peter’s Church of England in East Melbourne, with her newly married sister Sarah and brother-in-law of 19 days, John Joyce, as witnesses. William, who had been born in Co. Cork, Ireland, had arrived in Australia, directly from Cork City, with his parents, John and Ann Joyce, his brother John and sister Hannah on the Mary Nixon, on 30th November 1841, at the age of 20, as a labourer. In Australia, William Joyce, like his brother John became a baker. The family lived at 322 Napier Street, Fitzroy, but it is not currently known whether William and his brother worked together in Little Bourke St., or whether he had his own business in Fitzroy. They had eight children, William Manuel, Anna, Henry Lewis, John James, Mary Jane, George and Charles Edward. The youngest, Charles Edward, in the 59th Battallion AIF, was later killed in action on 19th of July 1916 at the battle of Fromelles/Fleurbaix in France. (William Fleming Belcher, in the Fourth Light Horse Regiment, his second cousin, fought in and survived that same battle). Eliza Joyce died of pneumonia and heart failure at the home of her son George, at
17 Figure 2.4: Eliza Joyce 160 Johnstone St., Fitzroy on 19th May 1900, and was buried in the Joyce grave at the Melbourne General Cemetery. She had been predeceased by her husband, who died at the family home on 7th August 1889. It is interesting that the doctor in attendance at his death was a Dr. Joyce, but there were no doctors in our Joyce family. Sarah Broughton aka Sarah Cupit aka Sarah Joyce née Belcher and her families Sarah Belcher was born at Mount Rath in Queen’s County in Ireland, about 1831, and came to Australia with her brother, sister-in-law and sister in 1849, at the age of 19, giving her occupation as “Childs Maid”. On 21st October, 1852, she married John Joyce, at St. Peter’s Church of England in East Melbourne, with her sister Eliza and brother-in-law to-be William Joyce as witnesses. John, who had been born in Co. Cork, Ireland, had arrived in Australia, directly from Cork City, with his parents, John and Ann Joyce, his brother William and sister Hannah on the Mary Nixon, on 30th November 1841, at the age of 20, as a labourer. He had later set up as a Baker at 167 Little Bourke Street, in Melbourne. Sarah and John had two daughters, Sarah Jane and Ann, born in 1854 and 1855
