Hi Michelle, thanks for the information as my great great grandmother and her sister lived in the Maitland/Paterson area before they married and I've often wondered how they travelled from Hobart to Maitland and Paterson as I didn't think a couple of young girls would go overland from Sydney if they arrived in that port rather than travel by ship to Maitland. thank you, Patricia Hi Patricia This hotel was where the Paterson River ferry arrived in Sydney - from memory was at the western end of King St - Moses was my maternal grandmother, Ada Irene KING's Great Grand father.
