T. Q. Stow.[2] He arrived on the James Baines on 27 October 1855, and preached his first sermons at the Freeman Street chapel on 4 November 1855.

C. B. Symes in March 1872. He returned to England, but died aboard the SS Torrens before disembarkation. FamilyC. W. Evan and his wife Ellen had eight children, among them
