sketcher, made a pencil drawing of Nurney House, Brougham Place, North Adelaide in 1858, now in an album of engraved views, lithographs, watercolours and pencil sketches of places in Australia, England, Scotland, Ireland and Jersey made between 1836 and 1860 (ML). Nurney House was the Adelaide residence of Captain Charles Bagot, a pastoralist and mine-owner. A pencil sketch of Douane Castle, Perthshire, Scotland dated 1 July 1840 – a more competent work than the Nurney House drawing – seems to be signed by a Diana Frances Vandeleur and suggests that the artist came from Scotland.
