Kent Completed Lookup Requests / Re: Mackeson Family, Canterbury

Dear jeanieR,
I have been researching the Mackeson Family for some time now and have extensive links and trees.
I have Henry Mackeson in my tree (DOB: 1838, DOD: 1891) who was married to Caroline Heap in 1860. I also have the extensive Australian connections of this part of my tree thanks to the postings on the net.
I too have noted the brother Fredrick on the 1861 Census although have not followed up on this lead as of yet... so many leads to follow.
The Henry Mackeson above, that you talk about was the son of Henry Scrope Mackeson and Annie Mantel Thornton. I Have proved this. His other known brothers and sisters I have proved are -
Annie Thornton Mackeson (DOB: 1834)
Charles Mackeson (DOB: 1843) - My Great Great Grandfather.
Louisa Mackeson (DOB: 1846)
Julius Preston Mackeson (DOB: 1861?) - In Aus?
Frederic Mackeson (DOB: 1859?) - In Aus?
Both Julius and Frederic were from the second marriage of Henry Scrope and are listed as born in Australia. Henry Scrope must have visited Australia??
Henry Scrope Mackeson is himself the Brother of Colonel Frederic Mackeson C.B. who was commissioner of Peshawar and murdered in Afghanistan. I have 7 other brothers and sisters listed for which I have extensive details. Henry Scrope Mackeson is the son of William Mackeson and Harriet Reynolds of Kent. This William is the brother of Henry Mackeson who is the grandfather of Henry Bean Mackeson.
If you would like any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me.
