Thanks Emeltee.

1917
... He was 82 years of age on August 9th last ...
... After a few years spent at sea he visited New Zealand, and subsequently came to New South Wales in 1860 ??. ...

He named his residence 'Huntley' and there is a Huntly SE of Keith. ??

Thanks Geoff.

There could be several like that with different vessels.

Getting way off a main line. This connects to Perdriau.
