Convict Notes
Michelle Chipperfield on 19th September, 2013 wrote that John married a convict. I have to set this right. He DID NOT marry a convict. His wife Marion (Mary Ann) Macfarlane came to Australia with her parents. Two brothers arrived from Scotland in 1839 as assisted passengers. They came with their families. Duncan settled in Yass and the other brother in the Maclean area.
Buried at Yass Cemetary. John was illiterate and a minister signed his name as Ledger on his marriage certificate - hence the change in his surname. Married another convict Marion (Maryanne) MacFarlane 11/12/1843
