Previously there had been only a ford but the Belvidere Bridge had been built and Miss Cheriton christened it that day, after which 40 sat down to dinner at the Belvidere Hotel. Matthew had driven his Jessie "up" (from Angas Plains) to be present at this momentous event. |

Adelaide SA [4] |
- Jane aged 7 years when (1830-1886) the family left Scotland to arrive in SA by the "Navarino" on 6/12/1837. She is shown in the S.A. Census of 1841 as aged "under 14" and residing with her parents at Strathalbyn SA.
MARRIAGE: (possibly at Holy Trinity, Adelaide as her husband was English) to John Cheriton (b.1829 at Exeter Devonshire UK). John arrived in S.A. in 1848 by the ship "Spartan" when he was aged 19, so he and Jane were both very young when they married the following year.
