Personal Notes:
In 1833 Samuel and Elizabeth Stinson arrived in Sydney. From 1833 to 1839 they were farmers for Surgeon John Harris; from 1839 to 1849 they lived in the Harden-Murrumburra area; in 1849 they were the first white settlers on North Berry Jerry; in 1857 they grew the first wheat in the district. From 1849 to 2003 the original farm was owned by the Stinson family descending down to the family of Graham William Stinson. In 1986 a Stinson Family Reunion was held and in 1999 they celebrated 150 years of farming.
