    • Both aged 25 (born abt 1839). Both widowed. James' Father's Name: James Cormac; Mary's Father's Name: Richard Hardaker
    Notes 
    • James and Mary had at least these children: Ada Jane (or Ada June, born abt 1868), Mary (born abt 1872) and Isabella Harriet (born abt 1879). We suspect that James and Mary separated some time after the birth of Isabella, and that he then fathered Muriel (born abt 1894) and Daisy (born abt 1896) to Mercy Leishman who James eventually married not long after the death of Mary in 1897. James may also have been the father of a daughter named Jane (this based on the marriage record of Jane Cormac White, widow, father James Cormac, married Robert Stanley Craig at Podanur, Madras, India in 1907).

      The birth years we have for James' children are from marriage records of each person. [4]
