I realize this i an old search request, but in case the original poster is still active I thought I would share some information I have found on the family of Pauline Bagley, who married Stillman Hardy in Australia in 1898.
Pauline was born in 1973 in Melbourne to parents William Bagley and Elizabeth (Williamson) Bagley.
Pauline had a Sister named Eleanor born in Melbourne in 1861. Eleanor married Donald Dinnie in Melbourne in 1885. Anyone familiar with Scottish history will recognize the name Donald Dinnie. He was the most famous UK athlete of the nineteenth century. He won the Highland Games many times and performed famous feats of strength.
Pauline had another sister named Lillie. I do not have a year for Lillie's birth, but she emigrated to the U.S. in 1908 under her married name Botta along with her son Rico. Lillie lived for a time in Hopkinton, N.H. with her Sister Pauline and Brother-in-law Stillman Hardy. She is listed on a 1910 census as a member of his household. Her son Rico Botta went on to have a long and distinguished career in the U.S. Navy, eventually achieving the rank of Rear Admiral.
Pauline also had a Sister named Susan Francis Bagley (b. 1869), A Brother named John James Alexa Bagley (b. 1863), and a Brother named William Gillespie Bagley (b. 1863, died in infancy).
If the original poster would like to have the references I've found, please PM me.
