He has been confused with Western Australian barrister and businessman John Schoales jun.

John Schoales, jun. was closely identified with programs to settle labourers, servants and orphans into WA. He was appointed Guardian of Juvenile Immigrants (the Parkhurst apprentices, brought in as unskilled labour), withholding their allowances until their 5-year indenture period was over. He was succeeded by F. D. Wittenoom (c. 1821–1863).

On 9 September 1851 Schoales married Frances Jane Andrews, third daughter of Walter Boyd Andrews (c. 1792–1847) of Western Australia, an associate of John Schoales jun. mentioned above. Three children died of dysentery in 1856, another in 1858. Another son, George Lewis Schoales (c. 1861 – 24 June 1888) died in North Adelaide.
