William Aubrey Burnage, writer and newspaper owner, was born c. 1847.[1] He was the son of Thomas Aubrey Burnage (c. 1824 – 4 January 1902) and Kezia Agatha Burnage (c. 1826 – 13 September 1901).[2]
19th-century Australian writer and journalist
In November 1875, Burnage became a partner in Hugh McDicken's printing and publishing business, the Newcastle Chronicle, located in Newcastle, New South Wales.[3] In January of the following year McDicken sold his share in the partnership to Burnage, leaving Burnage as sole proprietor.[4] Burnage's novel, Bertha Shelley, was serialised in the newspaper, which ceased publication in 1876.[5]
Burnage's 3-act play, Constance, was performed at the Theatre Royal in Newcastle, as a farewell benefit for Mr J.C. Joyce in July 1874.[6]
Burnage was 34 years old when he died at Newcastle, New South Wales, on 2 December 1881 after a long and painful illness.[1][7]
