220 horned cattle. It has been stated earlier in this article that James Milson owned 100 acres at Pennant Hills (Memorial of 1820) and 50 acres at North Sydney (near Kirribilli) that he received in August 1824. The Australian Dictionary of Biography states that in his will signed in July 1829 Milson lists a landholding of 220 acres (89ha) at Castle Hill (that is Pennant Hills, and includes the 100 acres of the memorial of 1820), the 50 acres (20 ha) granted by Governor Sir Thomas Brisbane at North Shore, 640 acres (259 ha) at Wallumbie (Wollombi), and 5 acres (2 ha) on Neutral Harbour (Bay) totalling not 1600 but 915 acres. This list shows, however, that Milson had disposed of some of his lands, and the disposal may have been between November 1828 and July 1829. In 1824 there is an undated memorial to Governor Brisbane about a grant of land that he had been promised. This largely illegible document states that the place where he had been told to pick a plot of land (the Australian Dictionary of Biography refers to this as being 300 acres at Pennant Hills) no longer had any unallocated land. Milson instead requested land "some unallocated land at the head of Pitt Water back of Mr Wentworth’s farm". It is not known how many acres this grant was for, or if the request for land to be situated Pitt Water was granted. The Australian Dictionary of Biography states that Milson instead sought the 50 acres on the North Shore (that he was granted in August 1824) and 300 acres farther inland. The 50 acres on the North Shore adjoining the 120 acres than was being leased from Robert Campbell appears to be the grant given instead of land at Pittwater (Mona Vale). If Milson also received additional land further inland he had disposed of it before July 1829 as it was not listed in his will. In a later undated memorial in 1824 written to Frederick Goulburn, the Colonial Secretary, Milson requests a ticket of occupancy for land bordering the Narrabeen Lakes where he wishes to place his horned cattle. This largely illegible document states that James Milson has 100 head of horned cattle. Bordering this land is "(east or west) side by the (illegible), (illegible) side (illegible) Lagoon called Narrow Byne and (north or south) (illegible words) ?amson’s farm." The ticket of
