PROBERT family members & interested researchers' October 8, 2007 <nts@sti.net> I am compiling a one-name study for the name of Probert(s) (variants). I am not selling anything, but am requesting help with gathering more data. The database in now online for interested researchers at PROBERTONLINE.COM, and at present it has 118,500+ entries. By way of introduction, I was born a Probert in California and my branch hale from Powys area of Wales back to 1698. I have found that our name has settled in Wales, England, Scotland, America, Canada, South Africa, Ireland, France, Switzerland and Brazil. However, although very few families were outside of England, Wales, Canada and America. This is compiled of public records of all kinds, and those "trees" and data given me by private parties who are interested in their family genealogy. The submitter's e-address is added in the comments. The goal is to connect researchers' branches of the families. There seems to be much information that is only found through Probert records and private sources such as family Bibles and letters, so hopefully you will consider adding your families' data.

Festivities at the Castle of Caractacus - Sir Edward Pryce LLOYD, Bart, who boasts to be the lineal descendant from Caractacus, King of the Britons, has kept open house at Pengwern, near St. Asaph, in North Wales, since the eve of Christmas-day. Old English hospitality, in its primitive simplicity, has therein been observed. On the 13th inst. the heir apparent to the vast inheritance, comes of age; and great rejoicings will take place. A sumptuous banquet will be given, and covers for 100 persons of rank and consideration in the country. All the antique services of plate, and the ancient flaggons, will decorate the sideboards, filled with choice ale, brewed at the birth of Mr. LLOYD. On the 16th, a ball and supper will be given at which 300 visitors are expected. The banquets are to be given in the Gothic hall, whereto, we are told, Caractacus entertained the Roman General who defeated him in a grand battle, fought A.D. 41, i.e. during the reign of Claudius Caesar!! The Castle of Caractacus is esteemed as the most antique of edifices, and the finest castellated mansion, perhaps, in Europe. Lyn Nunn Brisbane Australia

On Thursday, the 28th ult. the Royal Monmouth and Brecon militia arrived, after an absence of some years, at Monmouth; their return warmly greeted by the inhabitants; and on Saturday last the privates received their ultimate discharge. Previous to their being disembodied, Lieut.-Colonel LEWIS, (eldest son of Charles LEWIS, Esq. of St Pierre), addressed the regiment in an appropriate speech, thanking them for their soldier-like conduct, and observing, that the very few courts-martial that had been held, was the best eulogy on the discipline of the regiment. As soon as he had taken his leave, the men procured a chair, and taking the Lieut.-Colonel in their arms, seated him in it; and elevating him on their shoulders, bore him in triumph, preceded by the band of the regiment, round the town. In the course of this procession, they met the Adjutant, Surgeon, and Serjeant-Major, whom they immediately placed in chairs in the same situation, and carried them, with the Lieut.-Colonel, to the head-quarters at Avery's hotel, where they alighted amidst the cheering huzzas of an immense multitude of spectators (it being market-day), assembled on this very novel occasion. The Breconshire part of the regiment returned to their county town on Monday last, headed by their noble Colonel and officers, with colours flying; they marched into Brecon to the music of their celebrated band. After and elegant address from the Commander, extolling their conduct during the war, and expressive of his high senses of their military discipline and exemplary behaviour under his command, they were disembodied, and regaled at his expense with a plentiful dinner, in the Shire-hall. The youths of St Mary's Church exerted their abilities on the occasion, by ringing a complete peal of grandsire triples, consisting of 5040 changes, which was performed with great steadiness in three hours and 27 minutes, being the second time of its performance in Brecon. The non-commissioned officers and privates returned to their respective homes, loud in their praises of the great kindness and respect shewn them, particularly by their late noble leader.

The most instructive and valuable lessons, are generally acquired in the school of experience. When travellers were compelled to pass the Wye at Chepstow, in consequence of the rebuilding the bridge, it was thought advisable, for safety, not to suffer the horse boat to pass but at such times as it would receive and deliver passengers at the slips. This regulation restricted the use of that boat to about five hours a day. It is now discovered that the above precaution was unnecessary, and the large boat now passes with the greatest safety and expedition, at all states of the tide, and without the least delay. Upwards of 250 poor families residing in the neighbourhood of Overton, Flintshire, have, during the last two months partaken of the liberal bounty of F.R. PRICE, Esq. of Bryn-y-pyis, by having served out to them, twice a week, a sufficient quantity of soup for their immediate wants, and which will be continued until the end of next March; in addition to which, the above number of indigent people received from the hospitable -------- of the magnificent donor, on Christmas-day, the annual distribution of beef, bread and money. On Friday evening, the Chester and Holyhead mail was overturned at Pant Evan, near St Asaph, by the tremendous hurricane which was then blowing. The coach and horses were precipitated into a large pool of water near the above place, and one of the horses killed. The guard and coachman were severely bruised; but none of the passengers sustained any serious injury. Lyn Nunn Brisbane Australia
At Hereford Quarter Sessions, on Tuesday, on the motion of E.B. CLIVE, Esq. it was unanimously resolved by the Magistrate assembled, to accept the offer of a portrait of the late Duke of Norfolk, to be placed as a decoration in the new County Hall; and a subscription has been opened to defray the expense of the painting. A servant to Mr. John HOLBEN, farmer at St. Andrew's, near Cardiff, was last week summoned before a Magistrate, and convicted in the penalty of three pounds for taking off his horse from his waggon in order to defraud the Turnpike in the Cardiff District of the toll due for the same. This being the second fine paid in the course of about two months for same offence, the Magistrate informed the party that, if another complaint of the kind should be brought before him and followed up to a conviction, he should indict the penalty of the whole sum of five pounds directed by the Act, without mitigation.

Various reports being in circulation in the neighbourhood of Cardiff, respecting the mode of disposing of Mr. WRIXON's valuable collection of cut? glass at the Kyming, we are requested to assure the public that the whole has been disposed of (by valuation) to Jas. LEWIS, Esq. surgeon, Cardiff. Mr.William MORRIS, of Chepstow, is appointed his Swedish and Norwegian Majesty's Vice-Consul for the ports of Newport, Gloucestershire and Chepstow. A remarkably fine brig of nearly 200 tons burthen, called the Mary, was lately launched from the yard of Mr. S. SAMUELS, Carnarvon. Launched from Mr. ROBERTS' building-yard, at Hakin-back, a fine new vessel smack built, burthen about ninety tons, called the Salecia, to be commanded by Capt. John GRIFFITHS, of Salva. On Tuesday last, a man, said to answer the description of one of the persons who some time ago committed an extensive robbery on the Newbury bank, was apprehended at Midford, and was committed to Haverfordwest gaol for further examination.
