Research Notes
Parents
In the Derryloran register there seems to be two baptisms for the same child -- another one 6 May 1862.

The Australian death record cites parents' names as David Glasgow and Mary Mitchell. I have found no evidence of any couple by those names; however the timing does match the Derryloran baptism cited above. Perhaps it was a mistake by the death informant.
Other notes
There is a Queensland birth registration:
:Birth date:04/10/1896
:Mother's name:Mary Jane Henry
:Registration details:1896/C/5432

However, this is within 9 months of Emily's birth; and father is not named. So, probably a different person.
