Biography
sketcher, was born in Western Australia, eldest daughter and fourth child of the farmer and lay preacher John Wall Hardey and Elizabeth, née Davey, two of the Methodist migrants who had come out in the brig Tranby in 1830. With Mary Ann’s uncle Joseph, the Hardeys lived on a property at Maryland on the Swan, which they called Tranby. They later had a 16,342-acre selection in the York district called Mount Hardey. Mary Ann drew a small pencil sketch, Duck Hunting , in August 1861 among the Hardey Papers in the Battye Library of Australian History, State Library of Western Australia, Perth, WA, her only known art work. It was presumably drawn at Mount Hardey; the portraits of her parents now hanging at Tranby were painted by Hannah Maria Hudson . In 1863 Mary Ann married Edward Graham Barrett-Lennard at Guildford, and they lived at nearby St Lennard’s on the Swan. The Barrett-Lennards had nine children before Mary Ann died from measles at St Lennard’s on 13 February 1884 and was buried in the Old Cemetery, East Guildford. The Inquirer and Commercial News noted: 'A very painful circumstance in connection with the sad event is that a large and helpless family, of whom six are now prostrated with sickness, are left motherless’.
