| Notes |
- When William arrived in Sydney in 1838, he gave his age as 60, stated he was a native of Battle, Sussex, and that his parents were William and Mary Vidler. Unfortunately, there is nothing recorded in the Battle parish register to substantiate this claim, and his precise origins are still unknown. However, it is highly likely that his was one of two baptisms shown in the Battle register: * November 23rd, 1773 - William, son of Richard and Mary Vidler * September 21st, 1770 - William, illegitimate son of Mary Vidler As Richard (the father of the 1773 baptism) and Mary (the mother of the 1770 baptism) were siblings, we can at least be almost certain that the grandparents of William were John VADLER and Elizabeth BOWLING, who were married at Battle on June 3rd, 1742. Mary COPPER was a native of Sandhurst, Kent. She was born there on October 5th, 1775, and married there on December 29th, 1796. William at the time of his marriage was described as a bachelor of the Parish of Benenden.
