Notes for Robert
Burfield:
Robert Burfield also
arrived in Port Adelaide with his first wife, Sarah and daughter
Sarah.
Robert Burfield started off
as a blacksmith in rented premises at Port Adelaide in 1846 but by 1847
with John Fuller, a livery
stable keeper in Adelaide had bought Section 874 and took up a
Land
Grant for Section 1063 as
well as possibly leasing Section 875, effectively controlling the southern
half of Glenalta for the
rest of his life. He continued to operate the Commercial Hotel at Port
Adelaide from 1846 to 1850
and then opened the Wharf Hotel in 1853 which he ran until 1858. He
appears to have had a
family of girls and one was married at "Blackwood Farm" in 1861 to William
Barnet, a bookseller of
Gawler
Town, indicating that the
family had moved to the hills for a few
years. 1861 was also the
year he was elected to Mitcham District Council. Records show that
Robert was back, running
the Wharf Hotel at Port Adelaide, between 1865 and
1868
The Travellers Rest Hotel
at Belair closed in 1862 and there was no hotel until travellers reached
Clarendon and so on 8 April
1869 Robert Burfield opened the Blackwood Inn with a blacksmith
shop and stable. In April
1877 he was on a new 14 member management committee of Retreat
House, "for the protection
and treatment and care of habitual inebriates". Perhaps realizing his
conflict of interests,
within six months he had transferred the licence of the Blackwood Inn,
although he remained
landlord until transferring the sections of land to Philip F. Laffer early in
1878. In 1880 this
Inn was renamed the Belair
Hotel.
Late in the afternoon of
October 25 1878, Mr Burfield went down to Minnow Creek with a cask on
a horse and cart to draw
water for household purposes from the creek flowing beneath a wooden
bridge with post and rails
along the sides. A lady who lived near the creek heard Mr Burfield
calling to his horse to
stop as he seemed to be trying to turn his cart near the narrow bridge where
there was little room. She
looked towards the bridge and saw the horse and cart fall over the side!
Running to the spot she saw
Mr Burfield lying on his face in about two feet of water with the
splash board of the dray
upon him. By the time she procured assistance from some neighbours,
who freed the horse,
removed the cart and conveyed the injured 60 year old man to the
Blackwood Inn, "life was
extinct". Mr Burfield had been a colonist for 40
years.
