No marriage registration able to be found. The closest one is for George Russell to Margaret Brown, but that is in 1872 and George is noted as a baker of 29 years old. The marriage is to Margaret Brown. Given later events, although this marriage was in the newspapers, it may never have existed.

Margaret next married James Bullock in 1858 in Goulburn, New South Wales, Australia.⁶²²
