Notes

^ ^a ^b ^c Frith, pp. 3–4. Gregory believed his birthdate was 28 February but the birth was registered as 27 February. The birth was also registered as "Gerald Ross" rather than "Ross Gerald". His birthplace is often listed as the small country town of Murchison, Victoria—the normal family residence—but he was actually born in the eastern Melbourne suburb of Malvern, Victoria.
