  • Notes 
    • In "Dhungarra" (Dongara) opened a hotel on the road that goes down to the port after crossing Moor's Ford. The wagons and horse riders would cross the road at the ford as it was the easiest way to get to Criddles' Hotel. In partnership with Thomas at "Boolathana" Station & Yally Yally. Retired to Guildford.

      When his father died William built a fine stone house on the banks of the Irwin near the bridge, for his mother and two sisters. They opened a nursing home (1890), many were born there including Dave Brand (3rd Generation).
