Is this the face of Catherine Bryant?

Catherine Bryant (nee Stone) and John Ingersole were married in 1877 in Bathurst, NSW.  By that time they had six children.  John Ingersole had another six children back in England, and it appears that Catherine had four children with her former husband John Bryant.

According to her death certificate, Catherine Bryant was born Catherine Stone, in Great Bedwyn, Wiltshire, England on January 30, 1803.  Her father was Benjamin Stone, a storekeeper, and her mother was Mary Pembroke.

From information yet to be confirmed, it appears that Catherine Stone may have been one of 6 children.

She married John Bryant, a tailor, and they arrived in Sydney on the November 18, 1833 on board the 340 ton barque Edward Coulson.  The arrival of the ship is recorded in the Sydney Herald, Thursday November 21, 1833 with the passenger list including John Bryant, tailor, and Catharine (sic) Bryant.

Under the command of Captain Joseph Hammond, the Edward Coulson had sailed to Australia from Liverpool via Hobart Town on June 15th 1833, departing Hobart on November 6th.

With her husband John Bryant, Catherine had three daughters - Frances Elizabeth Bryant (b 1834), Eliza Jane Bryant (b 1835), Mary Ann Bryant (b 1839) and a son George Henry Bryant (b 1837).  In 1840 she gave birth to Maria Bryant, who is shown on subsequent records as Maria Ingersole.

John Bryant is listed in directories as a tailor in Bathurst in the late 1830s but disappears from view after the christening of Mary Ann Bryant in 1839. 

We have yet to do any in depth research into Catherine and John Bryant's children, but an initial look at the records suggests that all four grew up in the Bathurst area and that they all survived into adulthood, married and had families.  Thus far we have found descendents as far as John and Catherine Bryant's great grandchildren.
