I thought this little snippet interesting

Archibald Mosman, after whom the Mosman Municipality was named, was born in Auchtyfardle, Scotland, in 1799. He came to Sydney with his twin brother in 1828. They set up a whaling station in Mosman Bay, then known as Careening Cove. In 1839 he sold his business and bought properties in the New England
area, including a station called ‘Furracabad’. When a town was established at Furracabad in 1852 it was named Glen Innes at the suggestion of Archibald Mosman. He continued to buy properties in the Glen Innes district and by 1855 had major land holdings.

Archibald came to Australia after growing sugar in the West Indies...a little more

I think you may have found the last link as the wording of your request is a little along the lines of the information.

Contact with the Glen Innes Historical Society may be helpful.

Harriet Fraquahson married  Archilbald Mosman at St Andrews Scots Church in Sydney in 1847.

As detailed by Cando in  the first reply
Harriet and Archibald are buried together at St Jude's cemetery, Randwick NSW

You will find a lot of information about Harriet at  this website which I won't detail as you  may  have it all allready,  as  there is a lot of information out  there in cyber space on  this couple,  including  the details of  the couple's marriage.
