Research
When George WINTON arrived at Townsville, Australia, on the “Oban Bay” the family group included a Bella WINTON, age 18. That means she was born ca.1865 and so very unlikely to be George’s daughter. Maybe his sister? But his sister, Isabella, would have been 22 when George emigrated. Perhaps she was a niece?

Misc. Notes
