Comments
Margaret More (nee Junor) was a sister of my 3xG Grandfather John Junor who had a sugar plantation in Jamaica. When his son, James Thompson Junor, was sent from Jamaica c.1818 to the Fortrose Academy to be educated, he lived with his aunt Margaret. In 1838, after marrying in Aberdeen, he came to Australia with his wife and two children as a bounty immigrant.
