Thanks Ann for all that! I think the only possibility there would be this family -
name: Selina Frances Diana Leveson Gower
baptism/christening date: 11 Apr 1840
baptism/christening place: TITSEY,SURREY,ENGLAND
father's name: William Leveson Gower
mother's name: Emily
(Charles Thomas Leveson-Gower: born 1852 - d.o.b. from marriage certificate.)
They could be siblings timing is about right - but I still think it's odd there's no sign of him anywhere. And what would William be doing in Hackney as a builder? Away from the stately home! haha. A guess! William was illegitimate - but from whom ??? It's a mystery.
:-S Lx

Oh! by the way.... Chas.Thom. & Minnie's children were named as follows:

1887/88 Birth/Death of Herbert Granvill Leveson-Gower (Kyneton & Fitzroy)

1892 Birth/Death of Charles Granville Leveson-Gower (Tasmania)

It's just got to be that family!

Lesley


Theres been lots posted about your family, can you tell us what you want to find?

after fnding that lot I think we should call Lesley M'Lady!!

haha! Am so happy to have found this much. What's next, am not sure, but would really love to find out if Minnie Jane & Chas. Thom. had any surviving children. I seem to remember seeing burial records in Perth in the name of Leveson Gower.
Also, John Ladd & wife Jane Catherine went out to Aus but I can't find any record of them once there other than John's death date. Their daughter Sarah Mummery Barber I think went with them. Minnie Jane's parents, Edward Wilds & Eliz. Ladd also went out to Aus. but no idea when. That would be a great find too. He was brother to John. Is that confusing? It's getting late! Honestly, it's been great to have your help. Lesley
