From a well known researcher in the Facebook Group - 1820 Settlers South Africa -

Hezekiah GARDNER b 30 Oct 1811 d 2 Aug 1892 - married 3 times

• Maria Johanna Casparina BEHRENS 10 Mar 1834
• Elizabeth COUSINS 21 Apr 1853 - 4 children
• Matilda SHELVER 25 Sep 1860 - 6 children - Evelyn Grace was one according to Stanley G Shuttleworth in his book "Tipperary to Harvest Vale", (The 1820 Settler Gardiners) and b Abt. 1876 But... if you look at both Matilda & Hezekiah's DN no mention is made and she should appear if she died 1967 (= 91yrs old??) Their grave is shown here.. her age is not clear.
