• Notes

  ?i?Also it has been said that ?b?Mary Ann CHAPMAN?/b? is William Wallace Williams mother not ?b?Marian EVANS, ?/b?more research into this needs to be done yet for proof as to his mother and other siblings. Another name is also ?b?Mary Ann EVANS?/b?. As yet I have not been able to find birth records for William Wallace Willliams and is said to born at Millers Point in Sydney. Another source says that William Williams came from Devon in England in about 1840. On lighthouse records sates Williams date of birth as 17 Dec 1841. Found a Baptism for a William Wallis Williams which could well be our William. 49 Vol: 28... Parents stated as William Williams and Mary Williams of Cumberland Street,and William being a Master Rigger.With the birth stating 1 feb 1843 and christened 3 Mar 1844. On Williams Wallace Williams death certificate it states that he died of a Cerebral Haemorrhage, that he was 77 years of age and that his son Walter George Williams was the informant, states that his father was a ??? Williams and mother as Marian Evans.One of lifes mystery's that may never be solved, more research needed. Notes from Betty Ann Villy's Research: William Wallace Williams employed by the Marine Board on the pilot steamer " Captain Cook" from 1 Feb 1877 until 1 Jun 1880. The crew during this period were, Master Charles Smith, Mate William Firth, Second Mate E D Maides, First Engineer E.Bloomfield and Second Engineer William Williams at a salary of ? 168.0.0 per year. There was also 4 firemen, 10 boatmen, 2 lookout men as well as a cook and a providor. [1]
