IN August, 1874, James Arthur, his wife Helen and their seven children left Scotland for a new start in SA. The family had been enticed by advertisements seeking young migrant families to populate the South Australian colony, and were offered free passage on board the City of Adelaide, sailing out of England. They made a home in Gawler, where James found work at the engineering business James Martin Foundry. James and Helen lived in Gawler South until their deaths.
