• Notes

  Both James and Mary had been previously married. They and their seven children arrived in the Colony on the "Royal George" 10-3-1839. The"Royal George" was the third ship charted by the Macarthur family tobring Bounty Immigrants to work their properties in NSW. Although theimmigration papers for James gave his age as 40 years and not 47. This was most likely, as Alan Atkinson says, "to ensure his eligibility". His two sons from his earlier marriage to Celia Wilson, John, 20 andJames, 18. also came on the "Royal George" as did Thomas Williams, Mary's son. "Norris" family researcher AlanThompson has Mary's birth as: 22 Mar 1799 in Ewhurst.
