George Suttor
George Suttor (11 June 1774 – 5 May 1859) was an Anglo-Scottish farmer and pioneer settler of Australia,〔Vivienne Parsons, '(Suttor, George (1774 - 1859) )', Australian Dictionary of Biography, Volume 2, MUP, 1967, pp. 498-500.〕 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.
==Early life==
Suttor was born in Chelsea, London, England, the third son of a Scottish market gardener (and botanist on the estate of Charles Cadogan, 2nd Baron Cadogan) and his wife, ''née'' Thomas.〔 Suttor, through contacts of his father, gained an interview with Sir Joseph Banks who sent Suttor to Australia〔 with a collection of trees and plants including grapevines, apples, pears, and hops.〔
〕 These were put on board ''HMS Porpoise'' in October 1798, but delays took place and it was not until September 1799 that a proper start was made. A gale almost wrecked the ship, which was found to be unseaworthy, and a return was made to Spithead. In March 1800 another start was made on a corvette taken from the Spanish and renamed the ''HMS Porpoise''.〔
