Notes about John Skuthorp

Refer Extract from 'Along the Windsor Richmond Road Book 3' - The Early Days of the Ezzy Family - A Story of an Early Pioneer Family, Researched and written by present-day members of the Family, themselves, which can be read online at Taylor & Ashdown Family Genealogy - Richard Skuthorp (13 Aug 1791 - 2 Jun 1880) and from which the following is extracted from page 75 :

...John Skuthorp died first, at the age of 19 years and was buried at St. Peter's Richmond in November 1848. The entry in the Burial Register reads -- "died January 1848 (supposedly)". According to the writings of Samuel Boughton, John Skuthorp drowned at Cowbail on the Gilgal where he and his brother Thomas had just formed a Station. It is assumed by some present-day members of the Skuthorp family that this is a reference to Gil Gil Creek which flows North of Moree and East of Garah where the early family are known to have had properties. Whether or not this assumption is correct has not been investigated at the present time, however, whether Gilgal is a reference to a place in the North of the State, or another locality close-by the Hawkesbury, it would seem to us quite unlikely that the body of thd deceased could have remained unburied for a period of some nine or ten months. Nor would it have been practical at that time, in view of the distances to be covered, to return a body at a later date for a 'reburial' at St.Peter's Churchyard. We are of the opinion that this 'claim' requires far more investigation'....
