| Notes |
- Thomas and Mary emigrated to South Australia on 27 September 1839. They arrived in South Australia aboard the Lady Lilford.
According to Bob Boots Biography "A Solitary Man," Thomas and Mary left England to pursue the good life in South Australia.
Advertisements of the period emphasized that in South Australia there were no convicts sent, and high expectations of land, work, that the economy was thriving and there were job opportunities for all newcomers.
There was also the opportunity to escape the class barriers in England. They brought with them their children.
