1. John George Jess, son of Timothy James Jess and Mary Ann Lyons, was born circa 1837.
More about John:
He immigrated to Australia on the vessel "William Metcalfe" and arrived in Hobart Town Tas 27 January 1837.
Occupation: Selector/Husbandman.
Religion: Catholic.
John married Jane Power, daughter of John Power and Mary Donovan, on September 17, 1857 in Dragon Inn, Taylors Flats, Manaroo near Bombala, NSW.1 Jane was born on October 9, 1840 in "Yarra" near Bibbenluke, NSW, was baptised on May 31, 1841 in Catholic Church, Monaro District, NSW, died on April 20, 1930 in Murwillumbah, NSW2 at age 89, and was buried in Murwillumbah, NSW.
Marriage Notes: John signed the register but Jane marked it with a cross as did her younger sister, Mary Ann Power, who was a witness. The other witness was John Wholohan and the priest was Fr Charles Bernard Quinn. Noted in the register is the following: "The consent of John Power, settler, Lochiel, was given to the marriage of Jane Power with John George Jess the said Jane Power being under the age of twenty one years. I say Charles Bernard Quinn." Jane, in fact, was one month short of her seventeenth birthday.
Baptism Notes: Fr Michael McGrath and her sponsors were William Power and Jane Thompson.
Notes: Ken Percival, a descendant of the fourth child above (Mary Ann Catherine Jess) says old John must have been a bit of a villain because he apparently took off and left his wife to care for the brood of 10 children. From what an aged aunt remembers her mother telling her, John Jess went to Victoria and was not heard from again."

Notes: Dan and his brother John Pendergast had a bullock team at Mowarra, south of Eden. The stone for the lighthouse built at Green Cape in the early 1880s came from Sydney by boat and was unloaded at Chinaman's Beach from where it was carted by bullock teams to the cape. No doubt John and Dan's team was employed on this work. Sleeper cutting was also a common occupation in the district and they would have found work carting the sleepers to Twofold Bay.
Dan took his family north by 1916 following in the tracks of his brothers Patrick and Jack who had made the move in earlier years. Two of Eliza's brothers, James and William Jess, had also made the move to Murwillumbah. He enrolled three of his youngest sons \endash William, Bernard and Bede at Crystal Creek Public School near Murwillumbah in January 1917. The school register records that the boys' previous school had been 'Subsidised School' and that Dan was a tenant farmer living at North Arm. In January 1918 he enrolled his youngest child Frank as a new pupil aged 7. The family was then living at Crystal Creek.
