Elizabeth Everest was the daughter of Captain Roger Barnston Everest and his wife Rosa Edwina Grey Gordon. Elizabeth was born in Llandefeilog, Carmarthen, Wales, in January 1837.
Roger Barnston of the East India Company, was fifty-four years of age when he married Rosa Edwina in 1836 at Hastings in Sussex, England. Rosa was twenty-eight years younger than her husband.
The three children all born in Carmarthen, Wales, were Elizabeth Barnston 1837, Hester Edwina 1838, and Charles Emile Ernest 1840, when his father was almost sixty.Roger Barnston son of Captain John Cole Everest was born in St. Albans, Hertford on the 13/11/1782. At the age of fifteen he joined the Royal Navy and served with the East India Company.
East Indiamen, as the company ships were known operated as a hybrid of warship and merchant vessel of up to about 1,400 tonnes and armed with 48 guns.
His first ship was the “Brunswick” which he joined in 1797 as a Midshipman, was of 1200 ton, her Captain James Ludovic Grant.
They departed Portsmouth 17th Feb.1798 and arrived in Bombay (now Mumbai) central West Coast of India on the 4 June, next Malacca (Malay Peninsula Indonesia) 11th Sept. Melaka, formerly Malacca, city and seaport. In the era of the sailing ship, the port was one of the busiest on the peninsula.The Dutch captured the city in 1641, but from 1795 to 1802 and again from 1811 to 1818 it was under British occupation. In 1824, after six years of Dutch rule, the British acquired the city in exchange for Benkulen, Sumatra. On The 13th Oct., they were in Whampoa (now Huangou) the seaport of Canton in China.
On the return voyage home they stopped three days before Christmas at an East Indies Company’s, safe anchorage known only as -Second Bar-. The “Brunswick” made six voyages in all, between 1792-1803. Her other skipper was Thomas Ackland.
The East India Company had acquired Penang Island, near Malaya’s northwest coast. The island was to become a major trading post for the company. Sir Stamford Raffles then occupied Singapore Island off the southern tip of the peninsula in 1819; this location made Singapore the centre for Britain’s trade in the area.
Still as a Midshipman, he departed Portsmouth on the 7th Jan. 1800 on the 1198 ton “Canton” under the command of Thomas Lushington. They arrived in Johannesburg 2nd May, Bombay 26th May, Malacca 24th September, Singapore 1st October, Whampoa 5th November, 29th December, Second Bar, 16th April the island of St. Helena about 1,700 miles North-West of Cape Town, 17th June they were at a second safe anchorage known as -Long Reach-. In 1801 Roger was promoted to 5th Mate, on the 12th February 1802 he departed Portsmouth, on the “Canton” still under the command of Captain Lushington. Arrivals were - 11th June Bombay, 5th September at Malacca, 27th September at Whampoa, 9th December at Second Bar, 31st March 1803 at St. Helena, 2nd June at Long Reach.Roger was 4th Mate to Captain Lushington when they again set sail on the “Canton” departing Portsmouth on the 20th March 1804 the voyage took them to familiar ports including Ceylon, Madras, Penang, Malacca, Whampoa, Lintin, St. Helena.
Penang also known as Pinang was the first British settlement on the Malay Peninsular, it was established in 1786.The Battle of Trafalgar.
The battle took place off the coast of Spain on the 21st October 1805. Considering the experience of Roger and the fact he had been back in England for only a month, he would have almost certainly participated in this battle.
Twenty-seven British ships were pitted against a slightly larger combined navy of French and Spanish ships. Twenty of the enemy ships were destroyed or taken capture, without the loss of a single British ship. Lord Horatio Nelson was mortally wounded; the British suffered about 1500 casualties.Roger did not sail again for about sixteen months, when he was 3rd Mate on the “Scaleby Castle” under the command of Captain John Loch. They sailed from Portsmouth on the 26th Feb.1807 for Bombay and China.
Two years later he again departed Portsmouth on the “Scaleby Castle” 24th Feb.1809 as 2nd Mate. 25th June Bombay, 31st Aug. Penang, 14th Oct. Macau (near Hong Kong), 6th Nov. Whampoa, 21st Dec. Second Bar. 21st May St. Helena, 28th July The Downs (A sea area in the Thames).Captain John Loch took his new ship the “Charles Grant” of 1246 ton, with his 1st Mate Roger to Cape Town, Penang, Malacca, Whampoa, Second Bar, St. Helena. They departed Portsmouth 8th April 1811 and arrived back in Blackwall 17th May 1812. (Blackwall and East India Dock were both in the London district now know as the Docklands).
December 1812 Portsmouth, “Ceres” Captain Hugh Scott, a similar voyage to the other voyages including a stop at Benkulen then England in 1814. The “Ceres” was his smallest and oldest ship of 1180 ton. She made eleven voyages between 1787-1828.
After his defeat at Trafalgar, Napoleon had been imprisoned on the Island of Elba from which he escaped and returned to France. The battle of Waterloo resulted in the French government withdrawing support for him. Napoleon fled to Rochefort, where he surrendered to the captain of the British battleship the “Bellerophon” he was then exiled to St. Helena in 1815. He remained on the Island and died from cancer on May 5, 1821.
The Portuguese discovered St. Helena a tiny remote island in the South Atlantic Ocean in 1502. In 1659, the British East India Co. founded the first permanent settlement on the fertile Island.
The Island was extremely important to the company as it had mountains more than 800 m high providing an abundance of fresh water, and dense forests.Roger’s voyages on the “Atlas” took him to St. Helena on several occasions during the time that Napoleon lived on the Island.
During the years of 1814-1825, Roger Barnston was first Mate on the “Atlas” of 1200 ton. His Captain was Charles Otway Mayne until 1825, when Captain John Hine took command.The voyages were not unlike the previous ones, the additional ports were 25 July 1815 Madras, 31st Aug.1817 Saugor, 19th Sept.1821 and the 3rd Sept.1825 Singapore.
Captain Roger Barnston Everest’s first ship as Captain, the “Winchelsea” sailed from London Docks 18 July 1826, 24th Dec. Whampoa (Canton), 25 April 1827 St. Helena, and 3 June 1827 the Downs.
The Log Book.
On his last recorded voyage, Captain Everest in command of his old ship the “Charles Grant” sailed for China on the 21st April 1829 arriving at Cape Sing-Moon on the 7th Nov. He returned to Blackwall 9 Sept. 1830.
The “Charles Grant”- built by - Jamsetjee Bomanjee Wadia (1756-1821) the master-builder at Bombay Dockyard from 1792 to the time of his death.
Successive British commanders-in-chief in India had praised his work; he became highly respected when he laid down the "Minden". This was the first ship of the line to be built for the Royal Navy out of England. She was built of teak as was the “Charles Grant” and all the Bombay ships.Roger’s siblings were - John Cole died Manchester. William was a Lieutenant with the 17th Regiment; he was drowned off Cape Finnisterre, while proceeding to Spain.
Henry Bennett died at Cheltenham; he was a Lt. Colonel with the sixth Regiment.
Charles Evereux (MRCS) was a Surgeon with Regiment IECS. Emma married Joseph Cash and died at Liverpool. George James a Physician and Surgeon.
Susan was born in Chester and married a Surgeon named William McKee, and others?Several years after the death of Roger, in September 1844 at Worthing, West Sussex, Rosa Everest and her three children arrived in Sydney on board the 621 ton “Cheapside” on the 10/12/1853 having departed London 9/8/1853. The ship carried only twenty-two passengers (in cabins) with a crew of thirty-two. Understanding why Rosa Everest would leave the comfort and prosperity she most probably enjoyed, to move immediately to Richmond is difficult. It is most probable that there were other family or friendship connections that drew Rosa to Australia.
Rosa and her three children had only been in Australia a short time before Elizabeth married William Parnell in 1855 at Richmond. Rosa Everest died at Bourke St. Sydney on the 23rd January 1884.William died as a result of a coach accident in February 1880; his home was then at no.6 Walker Street, Rhodes, Sydney. William had worked at the Registrar Generals Office.
On 1st. June 1882 Elizabeth took possession of gold lease number 82 at Araluen, NSW. Araluen is about 40 Kms. west of Batemans Bay on the NSW south coast. The population today is only a few hundred but in the height of gold rush days had about forty pubs. These gold fields closed about 1920.
On 10 May 1883 only one month before the start of the gold lease at Araluen, Elizabeth Barnston Parnell entered an agreement with a Nathan Goldstein. Nathan had purchased ten acres of land at Barmedman, Lease no. 123 from a Charles Francis Bryan. The agreement was to ensure the rights of each party in a company to be floated on or before 14 September of that year. The three were to be shareholders and the company was to have no less than twenty six thousand one-pound shares. The object of the company was for a scheme to Quote “For the supply of water to the towns and districts of Temora, Cootamundra, Barmedman and Gunning, for mining, Agriculture, and domestic purposes”.
Bardmedman is about 320kms NW of Araluen in a straight line.Elizabeth Barnston’s lease at Araluen was for 5 acres and a term of 15 years. The locality was given as Gundella County, Murray Parish Krawaree. The survey of the lease reads: - Portion GL45 commencing at the NE corner of portion 45 and bounded thence on the N by part of the boundary of Roberts now Campbell’s 676 acres bearing N 89.30 west 7 Chains 94 Links on the NW. By a line bearing S 21.30 W 5 Chains 33 Links on the SW by a line bearing S 68.30 E 7 Chains 41 Links and on the SE by a part of the NW boundary of GL44 bearing N 21.30 E 8 Chains 17 Links to the point of commencement.
The Annual rent was 5 pound a year and the number of men to be employed was three for the first 12 months and six for the remainder. However, this was not to be. Elizabeth surrendered her rights to this lease on the 18 March 1884.
Then on The 25th July 1884, she took out three more gold leases nearby. All were in the county of Dampier, Parish of Wyanbene. GL 62 number 6 was for ten acres, GL 58 number 13 was for five acres and GL 67 number 18 was for one acre. These three were also relinquished 23 September 1884.Her interest in gold mining continued and is illustrated with the following applications.
1884 Elizabeth Barnston Parnell and Francis Wellington made an application for a Patent titled "An improved machine for the extraction of free gold from finely divided auriferous material."
Elizabeth was a metallurgist and inventor - Francis was a stockbroker. The residential address for Elizabeth was 217 Albert Street, East Melbourne. This machine was a mechanical apparatus. Francis is not mentioned in any further applications.
In Sydney and Tasmania 1886, Elizabeth made applications for improvements to her patents. Also in 1886, she registered a process titled "An improved process for extracting gold from certain descriptions of metalliferous materials to be called “E B Parnells Sulphur Process”.
In both 1887 and 1888 similar applications were made.
Elizabeth returned to England- she gave her address as - Gillman House, West Street, Carshalton, Surrey, England.
On the 3rd March 1898 from England she registered another similar patent in Tasmania, NSW, Queensland and Western Australia.From Surrey, England, Elizabeth made other applications for improvements to these patents in both 1899 and 1902.
Her interest in gold mining lasted for more than twenty years.Elizabeth died at Epsom, Surrey just prior to christmas 1913, she was seventy seven. (PRO. No. 2A - 19).

William and Elizabeth’s son Charles Edward married Emily Elizabeth King in 1884. Emily was the daughter of Edwin Wallingford King and Charlotte Dobell married in 1860.
Hester and Charles Everest.
Elizabeth Everest’s sister and brother.
Hester Edwina Everest married Edwin Ryan at Emu Plains in 1864. Hester later known as Esther died 1872 at Penrith, NSW. aged only 34yrs.
In 1888, their daughter Edwina married Lindsay J R Parnell the son of Hester’s sister Elizabeth.Charles Emile Ernest Everest became a stockman at Daandine Station in Queensland and married Elizabeth Morgan, in Dalby on August 21, 1876. Her brother William and brother-in-law William Lewis were the witnesses to the event.
Charles attempted to take up a small run in the Dalby area, but had forfeited the lease in favour of improved things further out. The couple with daughter Margaret Rosa, named for the two mothers, moved to the Wallumbilla area about this time.
It is believed that this marriage had a profound effect on the movements of the rest of the Morgan Family recollections have Charles Everest dealing in live stock in large numbers.The photo of Charles and Elizabeth was taken in Philadelphia USA. It was taken by Gilbert and Bacon, 40 Eighth St. and is undated.
It was a time of great expansion in the pastoral areas of Queensland and after the discovery of Gold in many areas from Gympie northwards, the cattle industry really prospered with the consequent huge increase in the demand for beef.
Various conflicting stories have Charles moving large mobs of cattle to the Rockhampton area, but although these stories read well as historical fact, there has been no documented evidence of his personal involvement in the trade. Nevertheless, it is certain that he owned property at Wallumbilla. Portions 316v, a small 160 acre selection on Wallumbilla Creek, was in daughter Rosa’s name in 1893.
Some time after this Charles and Elizabeth journeyed to America for whatever reasons are obscure. Morgan family recollections have it that Charles passed away in USA, and that Elizabeth returned alone.Elizabeth and daughter Margaret ran a small cafe in Russell Street, Toowoomba in the late 1920’s well frequented by family of present acquaintance.
In 1932 they were residing at 222 Pacific Highway, Hornsby where Elizabeth, then 82 years of age, and an old age pensioner died from shock on April 21, 1936, following a fall resulting in a fractured femur. Margaret Rosa, the informant on the Death Certificate was still living at No. 222, aged 58 and apparently had remained single.
( For other researchers, A Frederick George Everest enlisted in the Army 1940, he was born in Kuridala, Qld. 26/10/1919 and named his next of Kin as Charles Everest).
Everest family history
A family bible has been kept by the extended family of Susan Everest the youngest child of John Cole Everest and Hannah Fitzgerald.
Mr. Don Wells and the late Mr. Ken Hartly are both descendants of this family. Don and Ken with access to this bible have put together a very complete picture of the Everest family. I am very grateful for the stories and history given to me.The following is a compilation of details extracted from several letters and E-mails from fellow researcher Don Wells.
When William, Duke of Normandy, later known as the Conqueror landed in England he brought with him the people of the district of Everuex in Normandy. Duke William being a good military man made sure on his march to London that his escape route was secure and in that case left groups men at a number of castles and fortified houses, some of those groups would have been most certainly men from Everuex. Over the course of time those men from Everuex turned (as example) from “John from Everuex” into “John Everest”, they need not be related by blood, but possibly by region. It is widely believed the name Everest is derived from Everuex. In fact John Cole Everest must have had an interest in history because he named one of his children Charles Everuex Everest.
John Everest had been baptized at Tonbridge, Kent on 19th.July 1621, he married Ann Eversfield at Tonbridge on seventh of July 1651. His descendant (see family chart) John Cole Everest a Captain with the 64th Regiment married Hannah Fitzgerald in 1775. John Cole Everest joined the 64th Regiment of Foot, as an ensign on the 23rd October 1762 aged 17 years. He served in the American Civil War, his regiment is reported to have fired the first shots at Salem. He may have also have been in the Bunker Hill episode, after that affair the commander in chief, evacuated his troops to Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada in 1775, where John Cole's daughter Ann was born in 1778. When he left the regular army, he didn’t return to his home county Kent, but to Cheshire. On arriving in Cheshire, he joined the Cheshire Militia, as a captain quartermaster. Two fellow captains in the Militia from prominent Cheshire families must have been great friends; John gave two of his sons their names Roger Barnston and Henry Bennett.One of Captain John Cole Everest's brothers was William Tristram Everest. William's son George was born in Brecon and educated at Woolwich. He sailed with the Bengal Artillery as a cadet and did surveying service in Java, later he return to India where he was involved in many activities including the construction of the telegraph system near Calcutta.
George became chief assistant to the founder of the Trigonometrical Survey of India, then between 1823 and 1843 he was given the post of the Surveyor-General of India. George was knighted in 1861 and is most remembered for his achievement in measuring the height of "JOMO KANG-KAH" (Our Lady of the Snows) Mount Everest. He did not give his name to the mountain, that title was adopted as a tribute to Col. Sir George (Knight CB, FRS, FRAS, and FRIGB), by his successor Major General Sir Andrew Waugh.
