search in Ireland to see why she was sent out on the ship as an orphan or if she did infact have a living parent when she left.

Age 51
Birth Place HUNG

From information in online family trees, it seems that the BALZARY/BENTLEY marriage took place in Feb 1853. This was before civil registration commenced and so would be a church record and unlikely to show parents' names or place of birth.
If the death cert. does state that she was aged 59 in 1902 then the informant obviously didn't do their mathematics, but may have worked it out from the age of the oldest living child.

Henrietta. LOVETT's husband WILLIAM LOVETT was 52 at death in 1882. So younger than HENRIETTA. Women often fibbed about their ages when marrying a younger chap.

Father: Timothy

He left a will which reveals he was a miner of Goldsborough. All was bequeathed to Henrietta Leonora.
The AIGS index shows a number of LOVETT's buried at Dunolly Old Pioneer Cemetery -Timothy and Maria amongst them.
I believe William is interred there also, but as there are inconsistencies in the dating between the details of the will and those at the Cemetery, I will not list the burial.

The inconsistencies I mention are that the index shows a burial year of 1862 and date of 28th July. There were no WILLIAM LOVETT deaths in Vic in 1862. So an error I think in the index. The Vic index show 1882. The will gives a death date of 27th July 1882.
