Australia / Re: Lucas LUMBY.
« on: Sunday 28 August 11 12:41 BST (UK)  »
Thank you again All, so kind.I did see an L. Lumby sailing to Albany but that was all so that all adds a bit more info. I'm sure Lucas Seemily is Lucas Lumby,it seems to fit. He seems to have chosen a hard life when he came from a family of auctioneers and farmers unless he had a clerical job.

    Thanks again,
          Pipz.  :)

Thank you for this Gerry, you're very kind. I haven't found an entry for him on the suggested website.

Hi again,

I've just checked the 1881 census, Lucas was not included. Edwin died the same year so does not appear. I can't find any of them on FreeCen and I don't have access to 1871. I am assuming he  perhaps  had gone to Aus. by this time. It's strange that it has never been mentioned that Rose had a brother who died there. I have an old locket of hers with a very faint photo of a young man and I think it may be him as it doesn't look like the photo I have of Fred. We have quite expensive old sheet music which Lucas gave to Rose on which he had written fondly.

Hi, thank you all for replying. His parents were Edwin and Elizabeth, his sister Rose was my gt.grandmother and I think he was her favourite brother. I had no trace of his death in England and had no idea he had left the country until yesterday. I have done a very big Lumby tree and I'm curious to know what became of him.I haven't checked all the census records. His father was an auctioneer from Donington,Lincs. Rose was a headmistress, his brother Fred was a chemist in Nottingham and my Mother remembers Fred's wife Polly. Any information about him in Australia would be great.

I'm looking for  info. about Lucas Lumby b.1864, Donington, Lincolnshire.

He may have travelled to Western Australia as I have seen a death for a Lucas Lumby in 1897. Has anyone any information about him being in Aus. please. :)

Just to update you the Banks family at Manor farm is  the grandson of my Uncle Billy. Geoff, Billys' son was retired but sadly died last year. I don't have any info. about the family who are/were still in Haughton. The Egmanton Villager magazine maybe a big help to you.

Hi, thanks for your reply. I have quite a bit of the Sudbury tree.Some of the info. on familysearch.org is innacurate. I can't find proof for John having a son Christopher. Christopher, goldsmith names Thomas as his father in his will. I have three or four Sudbury wills. I have a tree for the Applebys, I don't know if it goes back far enough for you. I will send you a personal message.
