| Notes |
...Both James and Eliza, before they were married, lived at Irish Street in Rich Hill. James was age 18 when he married and lived in Rich Hill, a post-town in that part of the Parish of Kilmore, which is in the Barony of O'Neiland West, County Armagh, 4 miles NE from Armagh and 64 miles NW from Dublin on the old road from Armagh to Belfast. Containing 937 inhabitants in 1837; the town is situated on the river Tallwater, in the heart of a rich agricultural and populous manufacturing district, and from its elevated situation has an interesting appearance.
...James and Eliza came out from Ireland to New Zealand, in the Jessie Osbourne, setting off on 6 November 1875, and arrived in Lyttleton on 30 January 1876. With them were: Annie, age 10; William, age 7; Margaret, age 4; and Thomas, age 3 months. (What happened to Margaret and Thomas? Were they the children that were reported sick and died on board the Jessie Osbourne?)
...James' cousins, Adam and Lucinda, and Aunty Ann (nee Falloon) were already in Christchurch having come out in 1873.
