Dr. Samuel Wilson

Dr. Samuel Wilson died aged 39 years from heart
disease. 

Samuel was found dead by his groom a short distance
from his home in Bass. His horse had come home
without him while he was out attending a patient at
Powlett River. 

Dr. Wilson must have been much loved by the
community for them to contribute so generously to the
cost of his headstone.
