Personal Notes:

William and Grace came to Australia after gold. After many moves, they settled in Numurkah for about 10 years. William began the Methodist Sunday School there. They moved to Kyeamba, Dubbo, Methul and selected land on Gobbagumblin Station. After his first wife died, William sold the farm and bought houses in Manly and Wagga Wagga as investments. He was in his eighties when he remarried and lived in Edward Street Wagga Wagga in his 2nd wife's home.
