In Cornwall Richard Glasson had managed Emma’s estate in addition to other responsibilities on the family farm there called “Tremearne”. Emma had been married to a John Michell who died of fever while on business with a mining company in Mexico. The estate included a property called “little Beside” somewhere in Cornwall though what became of the property is not known today. When they married Emma already had two little girls (called Emma and Lydia) and the four emigrated to Australia on the James Patterson in 1838.
