INDEX

[456] Notes: William and Harriet WITT, and daughter Alice, left England for Van Dieman's Land on board the 'Royal George' on 7 Oct 1836 (their 3rd wedding anniversary). They arrived in Hobart on Sunday 7 Feb 1837. William WITT wrote "An Account of His Life", a fascinating short autobiography, which includes a journal of his family's long voyage down under.

William was named as one of the beneficiaries of his father William WITT's will in 1856.
