Cuthbert Joseph Henry "JOSEPH" HARRIS was born on 17 July 1821 in Sydney.555 The name Cuthbert is most likely to be due to the fact that Esther Blades' father was known by this name. However Cuthbert Joseph Harris, became variously, Joseph, Joseph Henry and possibly just Henry. He was baptized in 1821 at First church in NSW in Sydney - St Phillips C of E.556 He was baptised as Cuthbert Joseph.

Wentworth
Crown Hotel in Wentworth
Wentworth sits on the junction of Australia's two mightiest rivers - the Murray and Darling.
It is the administrative centre of the sprawling Wentworth Shire, one of the largest municipalities in New South Wales, encompassing an area of 26,500 square kilometres or 2,616,926 hectares.
Captain Charles Sturt discovered the junction of Australia's two mightiest river systems - the Murray and Darling - in the 1830s paving the way for what was to become the thriving river port town of Wentworth.
The overlanders followed the explorers, using the routes along the river the drive their cattle to the Adelaide markets. The trail along the Murrumbidgee and Murray Rivers became so popular it became known as the Sydney/Adelaide 'highway'.
The junction stopover at the Murray/Darling junction became an established camp known as Hawdon's Ford.
Then came the squatters, establishing illegal reign over the land along both the Darling and Murray Rivers, expanding their holdings westwards from the blossoming Murrumbidgee grazing area and, at the same time, northeast from the South Australian settlements.
By the mid-1840s the junction settlement had become "McLeod's Crossing", named for the first residents of the fledgling settlement.
With the arrival of the river steamers in 1853, the small hamlet found itself ideally situated as an administrative and commercial centre for the untapped wealth of the vast outback.
For many years Sydney and Newcastle were the only ports in New South Wales to handle more cargo than Wentworth as the steamers brought a new sophistication to the rugged river towns. They carried the hopes and dreams of the communities they served for more than three quarters of a century.
Wentworth became a town on June 21, 1859, named for the New South Wales explorer and politician William Charles Wentworth.
The area was proclaimed a municipality on January 23, 1879.

Julie Humphris ( Mid north SA ) - 30/1/2010 Email
Willoughby Humphris was the youngest son of John & Eliza Humphris, he had a twin sister, Mary Anne; his oldest brother John was a wheat buyer and town clerk at Yongala; next brother was Edmund, married to Frederina Gotte, they were among the first settlers to arrive in Jamestown; next brother was Henry a Police Trooper stationed in a number of northern SA towns; then comes their sister Ruth who went to Port Lincoln; then Eliza married to Thomas James who farmed in the north for a while before going to Broken Hill; Mary Anne married and lived in Adelaide; and Willoughby who farmed at Pekina for a while before also going to Broken Hill. I have copies of Willoughby's Land Granrs, Mortgage etc.. I have never heard of 'Petoria' and would suggest it really is Pekina, in some old scratchy hand writing which is difficult to read.

Willoughby was born in 1856, his father died in 1870 and his mother in 1876, by 1877 ha was married at Wentworth NSW.. In 1878 his oldest child, son Rupert was born at Pekina SA, followed by Harrold and Roy in 1880 and 1882, then daughter Olive born 1885 at Wentworth and son Goulburn born and died January 1891, followed by Caroline who died in Broken Hill 21 February 1891.
When Olive was born, Caroline states that she [ie Caroline] was born at Gol-Goll NSW; on her Death Certificate, Willoughby states that she was born at Wentworth and her Mother's name was Frederina, this is not correct, her Mother was Lavinia Gotte, second wife of Joseph Henry Harris. Following Caroline's death, Willoughby married again, and produced two more sons, one of whom died in the first World War. In 1906 Willoughby was living in Chapple Street Broken Hill, from 1909 to 1916 at Abermain NSW, he died 1924, buried Kurri-Kurri, there is no headstone aon his grave.

Through a family contact, made some years ago I have compiled a Willoughby & Caroline Humphris family tree, in one branch down to the present generation.
I also have a family tree for Joseph Henry Harris and his two wives, Sophia Sargent and Lavinia Gotte, it is mostly down to the generation born 1890/1900, it is compiled from research done in Adelaide, Broken Hill and Wentwoth by a friend who was helping me to sort out the Humphris/Harris/Gotte connections. As you are researching the Harris family you may already have all this information.
