It is unclear from this record if this child is the child of Kennedy Murray (II), freeborn on Norfolk Island in 1799, or his father, Kennedy Murray (I) who arrived in NSW on the "Pitt" in 1792.  As KMII was already married to Sarah Macqueen (marriage in 1819) it is perhaps more likely to be KMI who had a history of abandoning his children to Orphanages.
