The Advertiser (Adelaide, SA : Wednesday 16 July 1930) On the 14th July 1930.
Mrs. Mercy Dumbrell died at her home, Byron-street, Glenelg, on Monday. Born at Brighton (Sussex), 87 years ago, she received her education in her home town. She was a Miss Chatfield. Her father established a confectionery business at Brighton more than 100 years ago, and it is still being carried on by the family. Mrs. Dumbrell was twice married, and it is a coincidence that both husbands were in the confectionery business. Her first husband was Mr. Thomas Ransley, with whom she came to Australia in 1882. He died two years later. In 1885 she was married to Mr. James Dumbrell, who is one of the manufacturing confectionery firm of Dumbrell and Sons. Mrs. Dumbrell was all her life a keen and ardent church worker. In England she was a Sunday-school teacher of the Church of Christ. On her arrival in Adelaide she took up work with the Grote-street church, and for 25 years was one of the most prominent members. Her surviving family are:—Mesdames F. Vincent, of Victor Harbour; W A Blakely, of Adelaide; C. Kneale, of Magil; E. R. Manning, of Wayville; Reg. Rogers, of Glenelg. There are 28 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren.
