James Landers & Ann E. Keiling

        1.  James2 Landers  (Antoine1 L'Andre) (Source: Kay Gassan. ) was born 1806 in Prospect

Hill, New South Wales, and died 25 Oct 1884 in Penrith, New South Wales. 

He married Ann E Keiling (Source: Kay Gassan. ) 06 Aug 1827 in Castlereagh, New South

Wales.  She was born 1809 in Sydney, New South Wales.

 

Notes for James Landers:

Extract from THE LANDERS VINE by Peter Christian

James was born on 4 Jul 1896 and married Ann Keiling (also known as Hadley, Adley or

Keenan) on 6 August 1827 at Christ Church, Castlereagh, by Rev Henry fulton. the witnesswere

James' brother Samuel and sisiter Mary. there is some doubt as to the idetity of the father of

Ann keiling; it has been assumed that it was Charles Hadley, but this is not yet proved.

James Landers was the licensee of The Oddfellows Arms at Castlereagh and in about 1845 he

opened an inn at South Creek by the same name. This inn later became the Commercial Hotel

after James had sold it and taken up farming at Lambridge, near Castlereagh. He died there on 25

October 1884 and is interred in the family grave at St Pauls, Emu Plains Cemetery.

James and Ann had 11 children, and the following are pocket sketches of them.

William, born 11 Aug 1831 was also an innkeeper. He married Annie Elizabeth Henrietta Hadley

at Christ church, Castlereach on 10 March 1856. Annie's sister Sarah was the second wife of

James Tobias Ryan, and both were great granddaughters of William Tunks, a marine, of the First

fleet and Sarah Lyons, a convict of the Second fleet. William and Annie Landers lived in the

Penrith/Castlereach district for most of their lives. The Nepean Times of July 1890 printed an

obtiuary for William, which stated that "He was looked up as one of our best residents". Of their

children Edwin Charles Hadley Landers married Alice Annie Freestone. William James Landers,

a Railway employee in the Penrith district, married Sarah Jane Robertson, and after her death

Mrs Nora Welch. A daughter of William and Annie married Thomas Hobby in 1879 whilst their

fourth son, Harold, was a Sargeant of Police in the Parramatter district. another son, Percy

Landers, married Amy Ethelene Fraser, a granddaughter fo the Rev Henry Fulton.

Other children of James and Ann Keiling were George Napoleon, who married Betsy Whiley in

1864; Lucy married Robert Forster and Albert Ney Landers married angie O'Donnell.

It is interesting to note that a number of second generation Landers had a second christian

name which proclaimed their French ancestry. James named four of his children thus: George

Napoleon, Henry Phillipe, Albert ney, and Edwin Canrobert; but possibly to appease some, he

named another of his children Samuel Blucher! No doubt after the Prussion General, who with 

Wellington, defeated Napoleon at Waterloo. Another "Napoleon" can be found among the

children of Mary Stephenson (nee Landers)>

"The Nepean Valley, its History, its Floods, Its People" produced the following:

John Harris of shanes Park South Creek and his brave men rescued many by boat..Mr william

Landers, a farmer, living about nine miles down the river had lost all that was on his far at the

time of the flood. Page 49 says the The Castlereagh township could not be reached at all.

Barlows and Landers farms formed the extreme points and from one to the other is 9 miles. It is

impossible to get below landers."
