Harry Lambert Brabazon married Isabella Cash. Their elder daughter and second surviving child (see next sentence) Frances Isabella Clarence Brabazon, is the sister of Henrietta, who married a Lalouette. The two sons of Harry and Isabella died as children - one as an infant in Australia, the other c. 1848 in Ireland. Email is (*)

Hi again

There are a couple of Australian connections, both tenuous, but interesting and my gut feeling is that there is a distant connection between the families.

Harry Lambert Brabazon went to Sydney in 1839 and subsequently published a directory of the town. He got involved  with some property development deals which led him into declared bankruptcy and returned to Ireland in or around 1842. I imagine that he must have had some connections there which motivated him to undertake that enterprise.

The name Lambert features as a surname through marriage into the Brabazon family.

If you can tell me any more about your Isabella, I'll be happy to search through the information I have accumulated.

Kind regards

Lilian

PS I missed the most important point - the Brabazons married cousins on at least two occasions. They were also known to change their surnames to Brabazon, documented on at least one occasion by royal permission.

Hi

Just spotted this thread while doing some research. It it's any help to you, Frances Isabella Clarence Brabazon is the daughter of Isabella Georgina Brabazon, nee Cash, through her marriage to Harry Lambert Brabazon, who died c. 1849. Frances Isabella Clarence Brabazon married James William Knott in 1862 and her mother, Isabella, married for the second time the following year, to George Kennedy, a widower.

I hope this may be useful.
