LUCAS from Southam?Coventry 1700+

[penshurst]

Hello

I am a LUCAS researcher/descendent and I am interested in the reference to Martin LUCAS being from Tutbury.
I was told this once before but could never get any evidence then and so put the whole quest aside.
Now you have sparked my interest.

Can you give any more details on Tutbury - and - how you fit into the LUCAS line.

I did see your reference to SNELL- that's linking in to my researches.

Hi,
Well I got most of my info on Martin Lucas and him being from Tutbury on
 www.familysearch.org

Then some info on Joseph Lucas (my 4th great grandfater) and his marriage to Mary (Rumble)King (both convicts - Joseph was transported to tasmania for life and mary got 7 years)on
www.archives.tas.gov.au

Joseph and Mary had 7 kids, one was Annie(hannah)Lucas b.1844 in Tasmania who married John martin Snell from Sudbury, Suffolk, in VIC, Aust.
John and Annie had at least one child of which was Alfred Snell b.1862 VIC
Alfred married Isobella Harris b.1863 VIC
Alfred and Isobella had 12 children, one of which was Ethyl Snell b.1894 VIC
Ethyl married Patrick Flannery b.1889 VIC
Ethyl and Patrick had 6 children, one was Dorothy Ethyl Flannery b.1914 VIC
Dorothy married Alfred John Owen b.1910 VIC
Alfred and Dorothy had 2 children, one was my mother, Patricia Owen b.1940 VIC who married my father Werner Sollner b.1938 Munich,Germany

I hope this helps

Renae if you look back to my posting for 30 Dec 2006 on this page, I think you will find we are descended from the same Joseph Lucas transported from Coventry to Tasmania and died in Victoria Australia (laterly a hairdresser).  I have copies of the Broadsheet on which Joseph's conviction and deportation appear. Let me know by PM if you are interested.  Best wishes

I'd love any information you have about this branch of the Lucas family. I have lots of information about Joseph. I'm really interested in his family back in coventry prior to this. I haven't worked out how to send people messages on this forum.

Anyone out there? Very interested in this branch of Lucas's, the Rumballs and the Snells who are also tricky to trace back in England
