She was the great-grand-daughter of Lieut. William Lawson, pastoralist and Blue Mountains explorer.

Leader (Orange, NSW) Wed 12 Jun 1918 Mr. and Mrs. Icely years ago owned Goimbla, the scene previously of the episode wherein the then owner, Mr. Campbell, shot a bushranger dead.  A brother, Thomas Icely, owned Coombing Park, afterwards purchased by the late W. F.Whitney, and now the splendid residence of Mrs. Whitney. The Icely family was also connected with land grants at Byng, Carangara, and Lewis Ponds, whence the name Icely, which in the old days of copper-mining in that locality was known as "The Icely," and people spoke of 'The Icely Copper Mines." Residents will see in this the derivation of the Icely-road.

Mr. Icely engaged in pastoral pursuits in Orange. Subsequently he and his family visited England, where they resided for several years.
