Good morning Listers, I have joined the List hoping SKS can take me back further than the marriage of Robert WALPOLE to Mary Ann ???? circa 1850 to 1853 (Robert could have married either Mary Ann Parnell, Young or Holmes. I would also like to find which one is Mary Ann who married Robert WALPOLE. Robert and Mary Ann's first child a daughter Frances, was baptised on 23rd July 1853 in Saltbush, baptised by Rev. J G Girdlestone. It is Robert and Mary Ann's son John, born circa 1858, whose line I a researching. I am helping my niece by marriage to trace her WALPOLE family. Her grandmother was Hazel Mirabel WALPOLE born 8th February 1914 in Roma, Queensland, Aus. Hazel's father was John Thomas WARPOLE, who arrived in Brisbane, Qld 13th February 1900 aged 19 per "Duke of Portand". He married on 28th November 1907, Eva Victoria Beatrice Miscamble in Roma, Qld. John Thomas WALPOLE was the son of John WALPOLE and Mary Ann GALL. They were married in the June Quarter of 1877. John Thomas WALPOLE was born in the Sept Quarter of 1880, his birth was registered in Wisbeach. His mother Mary Ann died at the age of 33 in the June Quarter of 1891 and his father John married his second wife Lilian Lemon in the March Quarter of 1892 in Wisbech. John Thomas WALPOLE died in 1951 and is buried in the Roma General Cemetery in Qld. Some of John Thomas WALPOLE's brothers may have also immigrated to Australia. One name which appears in the Queensland BMD historical records is Horace WALPOLE and one of John Thomas' younger brothers was Arthur Horace WALPOLE. The family story is that they can trace their line back to Sir Robert WALPOLE, the Prime Minister of Great Britain. I am hoping a Lister may have details of John Thomas WALPOLE'S grandfather Robert WALPOLE'S parents. Robert was born circa 1829 in Walpole, Norfolk. Robert's son John names one of his sons Horace and one of Sir Robert WALPOLE'S sons was named Horace, so one would assume that the name is being carried through by the family. My husband's DOUGHTYS also hail from Norfolk, in Ryburg, Towngreen, Wymondham and Terrington St. Clements. Thank you. Cheers Janice Belrose - Sydney
