They arrived in Sydney 19 Oct 1838 and went to the Berkeley Estate near Lake Illawarra 9 (then known as Five Islands) to take up a 'clearing lease' (the clearing lease system allowed families to live rent free off the land for a period of six years on the condition they cleared the land for future farming). The surname appears as McCalla on the passenger list & Anne is listed as "Nancy" for some reason. Joseph Davis wrote in his book 'Lake Illawarra - an Ongoing History' that "it usually took longer than 12 months" to become even partly self-sufficient but that "by 1843 (ie in just 4 years), they had worked the lease, had two extra children and were able to purchase 24 acres of land at Thirroul for 55 pounds and 4 shillings" - Samuel MCCAULEY | | ||
