Hi Glen,
Excellent research of an often forgotten pioneer of Australian and World Astronomy in Southern Skies before federation
My son and his family lived in Dunlop St Parramatta for many years.My wife and I visited him and often had picnics in Parramatta Park with the grandkids where the Observatory was located ( exact location of his Observatory is still questionable today )
I’d like to visit his final resting place one day in St Pauls Anglican Church Kincumber next time I’m passing by the Central Coast , there is a plaque in the Church grounds
Thanks for your post , enjoyable read
Martin
