      Notes.

      William Hartley Budd (Junior) was born the eldest child of William Hartley Budd and Rebecca Sutton, and the only child of the couple to be born in Melbourne.
      At the time of his marriage, W.H.Budd (Jnr) was working as a Sawyer at Lilydale, east of Melbourne.
      The Witnesses were John Donaghy of Donaghy RopeWorks and Johns future wife, Norah Darcy.
      It is unknown how W.H.Budd meet Alice Corry, was she a servant at Strangeways or perhaps William meet Alice in Geelong.
      What would have taken him to Geelong is Unknown.
      The Budds appear to have lived with Daniel and Mary Luttrell (Alices sister and brother-in-law) in Geelong, until the birth of twins, Edwin Hartley Budd and Alfred William Budd on 27 Jul.1868, before returning to Wallan shortly before the suicide of Daniel Luttrell.
      Mary Luttrell was a Mid-Wife.

      The following appeared in the Weekly Times (3 Dec.1879) submitted by their Travelling Reporter.

      Adjoining Strangeways is Lovely Banks, the farm of Mr.W.H.Budd, jun., whose homestead occupies a healthy position on the slope of a hill, and is surrounded by a nice, well kept flower and vegetable garden.
      About five and twenty acres have been put under cultivation this year, half of which is oats, and the remainder peas and potatoes.
      The former are looking very well at present, the recent rains having proved beneficial to them, but should much more fall before Christmas, there is a probability of the caterpillars playing havoc amongst the crops and grass, these pests being more numerous and destructive after heavy rain in the summer than at any other time of the year.
      The stock on Lovely Banks comprise some good Clydesdale horses and half-bred Durham cattle, used for dairy purposes.
      Taking it of an average all the year round, they produce about 5lb. of butter each per week, and some go as high as 9lb. per week.
      The butter is sold to Melbourne dealers, who travel the district at regular intervals, and the price obtained varies from 6d. to 1s. per 1b, according to the time of the year and the state of the Melbourne market.

      It has yet to be established if Lovely Banks was part of W.H.Budds (Sen) original pre-emptive right, or was an adjoining parcel of land.

      It was reported in the Argus (8 Jul.1871) that W.H.Budd (Jnr) of Wallan, had been declared insolvent, as he was unable to meet his debts as a Storekeeper.
      Liabilities were approx.148 pounds, Assets 70 pounds, and Deficiency 77 pounds.
      Mr.Goodman from the court, was assigned to administer his affairs.
