Summary[edit]

Description

This month's highlight refers to Macquarie's family, in particular his son, also named Lachlan, who fell ill with 'worm fever'. He was a much wanted child as they had lost a baby daughter and Elizabeth had suffered a number of miscarriages. Their son's illness caused them enough concern for a trip to Newcastle to be postponed. While our research has been inconclusive 'Worm Fever' is thought likely to be two separate, but concurrent infections: intestinal worms which would create a lot of itching; plus a viral infection (like flu) that caused a high temperature, flushed skin, headache etc.
