John Ladd was born 1811 in Margate, Kent. He died in Aus. 1862. I have info on him until 1851 uk census and his daughter's wedding in uk was 1854.

His brother Edward Wilds Ladd, my gt.gt.gt. grandfather was born 1800 same place. and have plenty of info on him in the uk. But, I think he went out to Aus. because a descendent of his son Matthew sent me photos taken over there. I presume only shipping records would prove he was there? He died in the Uk in 1879. It's a long shot - maybe possible that photos were taken of his portrait which is in Aus? And he didn't go out there at all. Lx

Many thanks for the burial info Cupcakes. I had the death, but if I ever get to Tasmania, I'll know where to find him now. And also for the Perth info. It looks like they would be the grandchildren of Minnie & Charles if it's the same family.

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

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

Lesley

Lesley Report 15 May 2012 21:51

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

Lesley Report 15 May 2012 21:48

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.
