Ancestors of Allan Lousada

Notes


16. Colonel John Baruh Lousada

he inherited Peak House from his uncle Emanuel #142 in 1854 and lived there until aound 1877 when habitation apparently ceased (ref:  http://www.ucl.ac.uk/lbs/physical/view/17) and the new Peak House was built around 1910. Emanuel #87 the founder of Peak House built Cliff Cottage around 1820 (ref: http://www.parksandgardens.org/places-and-people/site/4987?preview=1) but it was demolished as part of the creation of Connaught Gardens opened in 1934.

In the 1881 census, Annie E Lousada 33 and two 'granddaughters' Kate Anni 5 and Norah Agnes 4 lived with JB, Tryphena and Constance

Norah Agnes arrived in Autralia 1906 and worked as a nurse, presumably dying in Australia
Annie Ellen presumably her mother was born in Canada and lived in Australia, presumably dying in Australia

John Bury says: I have read in Sidmouth history (probably Peter Orlando Hutchinson, the Sidmouth diarist and general busybody) about the arrival of a new lifeboat for the town - it came by train! - and the procession which accompanied it down to the seafront being headed by the 2nd Devon Volunteers under the command of Colonel Lousada. This was in 1869, so would have been JBL.

This agrees with the death notice of his Australian son Harry B Lousada referring to his father as Colonel

18. Capt Charles Oakes Blackwood Hall

RN

from Diana Mayne 13 Nov 2015 email to Julian Land:
was the son of a naval officer who was on Nelson's flagship "Victory" as a midshipman (probably aged early teens) at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805.


19. Catherine Nelson

from Diana Mayne 12 Nov 2015 email to Julian Land:
Their mother was CATHERINE NELSON (1830-1895), born in Ireland. Her father ( ? Nelson, 1785-1877) was apparently a Methodist missionary. Her husband, Captain Charles Oakes Blackwood Hall RN, b1827, was the son of a naval officer who was on Nelson's flagship "Victory" as a midshipman (probably aged early teens) at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805.

The story in David's family is that Mrs Hall, a widow since 1872, was visiting Australia (in the early 1880s?) and whisked Evelyn Louisa back to England before she also could marry an Australian! She eventually found a husband in 1895 nearly 6 years younger than her - Rev Hope Charles Tiarks - (a rather stuffy parson, according to David, unlike his youngest son, Uncle John, Bishop of Chelmsford, who was a talented clergyman with a most beautiful voice which was heard on the radio in the late 1940s when he was Provost of Bradford for the "Lift Up Your Hearts" meditation for 5 minutes before the 8am news - I met him and his wife in 1964 and they were lovely people.)
