• Sources

  [S1] Certificate, Mother's Death - Australia. Here it gives her date of birth as June 1817, but I have chosen to believe the other source. [S93] The Davis story : with Ginninderra and Canberra connections, Hilda Burr. [S106] Other Researchers - Deb Daly (Reliability: 3). Arrival in Australia on assisted passage - see document. [S11] Personal Knowledge, Mother's letter to her brother Robert. [S30] Death & Funeral Notices , William Davis Obituary in Canberra Times. Here it says they were married July 1847, in Gillamatong. Newspapers are unreliable, so I have chosen to believe the book on the Davis Family by Hilda Barr.
