'''Martin Byron's''' impounded a horse at Chiltern on 13/2/1876 and in March of that year my house was burnt down

In about March 1879 [[Mrs Margaret Byrne|Mrs Byrne]] went to see [[Aaron Sherritt|Arron Sherritt]]’s parents and accused him of spying for the police. She then charged Aaron with stealing a horse called Charlie which he had given to Joe Byrne's sister [[Catherine Byrne, Kate Byrne|Kate]] a few years before. Aaron got off the charge. Mrs '''Ellen Byron''' gave evidence for Aaron Sherritt. (See [[Royal Commission report day 42 page 1|RC14528]] and [[Royal Commission report day 32 page 7|RC12184]])

On one occasion [[Ellen Sherritt|Arron Sherritt's mother]] said she received a letter from [[Mrs Margaret Byrne|Mrs Byrne]] to go and see her, and Mrs. Byrne told her then that [[Joe Byrne|Joe Byrne]] and Dan Kelly called at the Black Dog Creek. Joe Byrne gave a letter to '''Mrs Byron''' to deliver it to Mrs Byrne. Mrs Byron, not being on good terms with Mrs. Byrne, she sent the letter by her husband to Mr [[Archibald Batchelor|Batchelor]], who lives next door to Mrs Byrne. He delivered it to Mrs Byrne. Det Ward had enquiries made, and found that Mr Byron was at Batchelor's just about the time. ([[Royal Commission report day 40 page 5|RC14190]])

'''The KellyGang''' were seen drinking at Lord Byron's

On [[events 1880-4/ 1880-6|17/5/1880]] Det [[Ward|Ward]] received a report from Mrs. [[Anne and John Sherritt Snr|Sherritt]]? stating that the [[../../things/K_kellys/K_KellyGang.html|'''KellyGang''']] called about a week previous at Lord Byron's. They looked miserable and ragged, and in want of food. They took a lot of food from here with them. ([[Royal Commission report day 38 page 7|RC13858]])
