The child was named John Thomas Field Church b. 1846. It was when he was sent off to Australia when he contracted his name to John Thomas Field (so disguising his illegitimacy) and married Jane White [his cousin] on 19 Oct1867 at Violet Town, Victoria.

The marriage took place "In the Dwelling House of Reuben Croxford, Violet Town". Reuben was Jane White's brother in law, he m. Mathilda White.
