Things
A number of teachers played a significant role in the story of the KellyGang.
There are not only those that taught the members of the KellyGang
but others who acted as sympathizers or stood on the dividing line between
the community and authority.
It was often said that people come into the World and go out of it in the
arms of the Church. For Catholics like the KellyGang
this was particularly so. Mrs
Kelly took her first child Mary
Jane to be baptized in Kilmore just before she died.
But this story has many other aspects, Aaron
Sherritt was a Protestant.
The story also has people like the Rev Gibney
who was the first person to enter the burning inn at Glenrowan, and Rev John
Gribble, the Congregational minister who preached in Jerilderie
and many others
