email from Margaret Winmill 2015.01.28 I'm writing a book about my ggggrandparents George and Sarah Suttor, who came to Australia in 1800.  In George's Memoirs  he mentions that he was "made a member of the Ethnological Society of London". 

Notes From Elsewhere

George Suttor (11 June 1774 – 5 May 1859) was an Anglo-Scottish farmer and pioneer settler of Australia,[1] who is notable as the founder of a significant Australian family, and also as a supporter of Captain Bligh following the 1808 Rebellion at Sydney, New South Wales.
Suttor visited England and Europe in 1839-45 and was elected a fellow of the Linnean Society of London.[1][2]
