Many thanks to Linda Powell in Australia for this additional information on the Wheeler family, who left Bisley in 1837 on board the 'Layton':

I am a descendant of Jonathan & Jane's son Samuel Wheeler & his second wife Annie Richards. Samuel's first wife, Selina, daughter of Jacob & Ann Butt of France Lynch above Chalford, also emigrated aboard Layton.

Some twenty-seven years after the voyage, Selina died in Tarban Creek Asylum of pan encephalitis, certified as a "lunatic" even though medical opinion today suggests that her illness is attributable to measles exposure as a child aboard "Layton". Your website notes the death of Selina's younger sister Emma Butt (aged 3).

Re "All's well that ends well". Jonathan Wheeler and sons also worked at Camden Park, NSW, for a time, initially engaged by Hannibal Macarthur, John Macarthur's nephew, later farming in their own right in the Camden area.

They were also ironbark sawyers, renowned for cutting the timber for the roof and cedar pews of St. John's Church, Camden. Jonathan's story regrettably did not end so well as Messrs Phelps & Millard. At the age of 64, Jonathan was killed falling from a wagon while transporting wheat between Camden and Junee. He is buried at St. John's Church cemetery as are a number of his descendants.

1. SELINA ELLEN CHAPMAN: (1873-)
