Research Notes

Other siblings - William, Mary Ann, Martha, Matilda and Katie (was lost and died in the bush).

Re marriage location: - interesting that "at the home of the bridegroom's father" was also "the home of Mrs Warman". I think George Granger was dead in 1867, so I think this was a sister's home.

Father William likely to have arrived in South Australia as a colonist - born before 1836. Check passenger list of Buckinghamshire 1839. http://topperwien.com/genealogy/trees/people/p0000gs8.htm#I4247 sya he was born 8 Mar 1833 in Surrey, father also Wm., wife Jane Eliza Boorman.

Western Australian government gazette in 1905 and 1915 shows William, son William George and Lily Rose Granger as having leases on land at Cuballing. (Google)
