daughter of Milson's employer, without stating who Milson's employer was. Some interpret this to mean that Milson was working on the farm of Elizabeth's father David Kilpack. This, however, is impossible as David Kilpack died in 1797 which was 9 years before Milson arrived in the Colony, and before Kilpack died he had sold his farm to John Macarthur (1767–1834). Elizabeth Warne says that Milson worked on the farm of Elizabeth's mother, the "widow Kilpack", a farm of 170 acres. This again is impossible as prior to 1816 Elizabeth's mother never owned a farm, and she was also only the "widow Kilpack" for 14 months till her second marriage to Thomas Higgins on 31 January 1799, although she was still at times identified by her maiden name of Eleanor McDonald (1822 and 1825 musters) and her former married name of Eleanor Kilpack (land grant of 1816). (Elizabeth Warne also incorrectly states that Milson worked on this farm before 1810 at the same time as working on his own farm of 50 acres opposite Sydney Cove when he did not receive the grant for this 50 acres until August 1824.) There then only remained Elizabeth's step-father Thomas Higgins. The 1806 muster, however, shows that he only had a farm of 30 acres and records in the Colonial Secretary's Index show that he did not acquire another 100 acres until July 1809. The Beecroft and Cheltenham History Group states instead that James Milson had worked on Cornish Hills Farm when he first arrived as a free settler in 1806. With the understanding that James Milson's first employer in the colony had been Robert Campbell at Canterbury, this is the most likely scenario of Milson's second workplace at the "Field of Mars". The Cornish Hill Farm was owned by John Macarthur. By 1803 John Macarthur had acquired a total of over 1000 acres at the "Field of Mars" being a number of smaller farms that he called the "Cornish Hill Farms", in an area that extended from today's Dundas through Carlingford and Beecroft to Thompson's Corner in Pennant Hills at the junction of Castle Hill and Pennants Hills Road. On Macarthur's Cornish Hills Farms, which included the farm that had originally belonged to the father of Elizabeth Kilpack, John Macarthur employed farm managers for the various farms and for various farming tasks. Two of these farm managers had been David Kilpack, the father
