Notes

The publication Matthew J. Fox, The History of Queensland: Its People and Industries: An Historical and Commercial Review Descriptive and Biographical Facts, Figures and Illustrations: An Epitome of Progress, (Brisbane: States Publishing Company, 1923), p. 205 asserts: “…when an infant child of Mrs. Scammell died [the infant William Scammell] it was buried in Governor Bourke’s vault in the churchyard of St. John’s, Parramatta [i.e. Elizabeth Jane Bourke’s grave], where members of the Deas Thompson family also lie.” Credit for this research: Peter Yates.
