Research Notes
There is a discrepancy between Richard's arrival date, as given by the State Archives NSW 1862, and the date of his marriage to Margaret - with the latter taking place four years earlier than the former. An attempt shall be made to read the actual document. Paul-5413 22:23, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
There is another arrival for a Richard Nesbitt on the Ann Of Gloucester, but in 1836, not 1862, which makes more sense, but is unverified. (Other arrival statement removed until one can be verified.)
