    Notes 
    • !On the 18th. Sept 1875 John and his wife(who was registered as 18years old,
      but beleived to be only 16), set sail with assisted passage on the "Gauntlet"
      from Gravesend bound for Australia. They were accompanied by John's eldest
      sister Mary,her husband and their six children. On Dec. the 28th. 1875 the
      Gauntlet was towed to anchor off the quarantine ground at Peel Island where
      they remained until the 30th. Jan. 1876 because the ship was a "fever ship".
      Conditions on Peel Island were appaling, Accomodation was scanty and
      insufficient for the three hundred on board. Peel Island was closed soon after
      this.

      John and Sarah settled on a farm at Emu Creek, about 12 miles north-east of
      Crow's Nest in Queensland. They later owned a general store in Crow's Nest on
      the corner of Thallion Street and Recreation Terrace. John became known as "The
      Little Wonder" and his shop had the same name, he owned the shop until his
      death with his sons helping to run it in later years. Besides the name of John
      in the Crows Nest cemetary records are the words " The Little Wonder" and in
      later years when his great-grand children had a marker placed on John and
      Sarah's grave the same insctiption was added to ensure that a piece of history
      survived.

      Sarah was cared for by her daughter Edna ( wife of Frank Barnes) and also spent
      quite a bit of time with her son Stephen and his family. Sarah died aged 82 in
      1941
