Confusing

Comments from an IP editor
(Relocated from the article) Heading north, he ended up in Rockhampton; *** WAS HE NOT AT YAAMBA? FIRST, WITH HIS BROTHER MAYBE*** AND WHAT OCCUPATION, IT WAS NOT TMBER *** which, when in it's infancy he owned a sawmill on the Fitzroy river. After a period spent in Rockhampton, he moved further south to the Burnett. In 1867 he purchased a site on the northern banks of the Burnett river to erect his sawmill,*** DID ANYONE BOTHER TO CHECK OUT TITLE DEEDS. THEY DO NOT REFLECT THIS AT ALL*** IT TAKES SOME WORKING OUT AND COSTS SOME MONEY TO DO*** which he bought in by the ketch "Violet"; the first vessel to enter the river. He is the man responsible for establishing the Waterview Estate.**AN 1867 MAP SHOWS STEUART, AND MITCHELL BUT NO WATSON OR JOHNSTON. HENDERSON IS SHOWN AT TANTITHA AND THAT IS ALL.***

If anyone can address these issues in the article, please do. Thanks Kerry (talk) 07:29, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
