Notes

152. John Graham Tyssen

Not with parents or 2 sisters Eleanor and Gertrude at the time of the 1891 Census - they were at Yarmouth. He may have left for Australia by then as he married in Australia in 1894

245. Cyril John Tyssen

246. Doris Victoria Tyssen

154. Hugo Lousada

Travelled by ship to Australia 1932 - the ship's name was Cathay of the P&O Line
Visited Sydney and Melbourne

Peter Lousada (21 Jul 2011) says 'I met Hugo Lousada who lived at Harpenden, Hertfordshire.  I think his son was Tony Lousada who played County Cricket at one time and was educated at
the Leys School.  He may have been a son of St. Leger Lousada, older brother
of your very own Edward Charles of Warragel.  (Ref 85 www.barrow-lousada.org has son Hugo, born 1906, 20 June).....The Hugo I met some years ago was born when St.L would have been 59 and Hugo might have been a bit precocious and fathered Peter Desmond at 18 in 1924 but did not produce Anthony until he was 39 in 1945 in England. Hugo married Sheila Fraser Lousada (14AUG11 to JAN55) and they produced Anthony Lousada on 23DEC45. Source:familytreemaker.genealogy.com. As far as I know, Anthony is married to Dee Lousada and they own horses. Maybe, Anthony and Peter Desmond could be in for a surprise ......

Peter Desmond is aged 87 in 2011, was born in 1924 and believes he was conceived in 1923 (on the Isle of Wight). His father Hugo must have been 17 at the time.

Marriage Notes for Hugo Lousada and Paddy Bullock

actually, they had a holiday fling whilst teenagers and were never married
she wrote Lousada on the back of Peter Desmond's birth certificate and he used the name throughout his life
Hugo may never have known that he had a son as a result

In Walter and Lydia’s later years, they moved into “town”, taking up residence in the Melbourne suburb of Malvern. In 1923, they were living at 11 Jordan Street with their house named “Systonholme” , a reminder of Ensay. Daughter Selina was living with them and Julia and her husband Arthur Lousada moved from their home in Toorak to 113 Tooronga Road Malvern, only two streets from her parents.

Her son Winton said she was a farmer's daughter with some social aspirations, but Winton's father was a truck driver and very much working class.

165. Edward Charles Hall Lousada

A descendant Daniel Lousada of Sydney informed me that his father was John Hall Matthews Lousada and died 15 years ago and was an only child. Daniel has three siblings - making 4 grandchildren of ECHL

He died at Korumburra - did not wake up the next am to the shock of his hosts my grandparents

The latest date of ECHL on the Electoral Roll was 1963 so we take that date for his death date

He witnessed the Queen Mary ramming and sinking HMS Curacao, a cruiser of the Royal Navy in 1942. From http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/ww2peopleswar/stories/13/a2733013.shtml
'My great uncle, George Westray, was the youngest seaman, aged 19, on the Curacao and sadly did not survive the tradegy. The men were lost off Bloody Foreland on the Irish coast. The names of the men who were lost are commemorated on the Chatham Naval Memorial in Kent. The survivors were taken to Londonderry in Northern Ireland where they were given a warm welcome, food and cigarettes!
We have a cutting about the accident from a magazine publised June 30 1945, but we do not know what the magazine is called. It may have been Australian as the cutting was sent to us from there. The article is headlined 'The war's most tragic naval collision'. The illustration in the article is by an artist call Norton. The account of the accident was given by a member of the crew on the QM an Australian called E C H Lousada.

Oddly my great aunt was at the pictures when the news reel showed the Queen Mary with a crumpled bow. No comment was made on the news about the damage, and Aunt Mary mentioned it to husband quite unaware that her brother was a victim of the accident which had occurred.'

166. Aubrey George Lousada

At Stratford in Jun 1937, A G Lousada drew with B Watt 1 win and 2 draws each whilst A G Lousada 2 wins 1 draw beat A McDonald 1 win. On 11 Sep 1937 A G Lousada scored a draw against K Egan the Victorian champion in a simultaneous event.

169. Ruth Eleanor Lousada

by email from Diana Payne 15 Nov 2015
Further recollections of Ruth’s family – Margaret Parker’s husband was GEORGE and he worked for Inverloch Council, I think. Sally would have been born in the early 1960s – she was a few years older than my girls (b1965 and 1966) and we received hand-me-down clothes from her (once). I just MAY have a photo of them in an old album. I shall look. I clearly recall what they looked like. Gwen’s family were close to “Auntie Ruth”, so Bronwyn is likely to have photos...Ruth and Auntie Sophie communicated with each other all their lives – that’s how Ruth knew we were in Melbourne and made contact soon after we arrived.
by email from Diana Mayne 14 Nov 2015
widow of Rev Henry White, I had quite a lot of contact with during the 1970s and until she died (late 80s?). I visited her at Inverloch where she lived at 18 William Road with her daughter Margaret Parker and granddaughter Sally, and went to Gwen's for lunch nearly every time she came up to Blackburn to stay with Gwen, and she came here a few times. Bronwyn or Cecile would be the best source of information. Margaret had some disability (walked with a limp and shaking, I think), while Sally was a lovely healthy girl with personality, talents etc.
on 19 Nov 2015 Diana Mayne said after speaking with Bronwyn Collins on 18 Nov 2015 that Ruth had 2 children of her own and 5 step-children
by email 4 Dec 2015 from Diana Mayne
Ruth must have died earlier than I thought – in the mid or late 1970s when Bronwyn’s boys were young – she remembered going to the funeral in Inverloch. Margaret would know. (My info - Ruth lived at Welshpool at some stage, where Agnes Morris b1903 met her and Cecile’s family when Agnes’ father was manager of the Commonwealth Bank there. They found they had the same connections in London – Canon Morris and the Tiarks family – not blood relatives but connected through marriage. Agnes and Ruth knew one another quite well, Ruth being 5 years older than Agnes – they certainly were in touch with each other over our arrival in 1969.)
Ruth, after marrying Rev Hedley White with 5 step-children and then having Margaret and Edward, became the breadwinner when her husband became ill, and they moved to Malvern where she ran a boarding house where Gwen in the 1940s and probably Cecile stayed at times while doing nursing training (my info again – under Agnes Morris at the Royal Children’s who was in charge of training the nurses – she was THE expert on infant feeding - Victoria was a small place in those days!).

170. Horace Frank Lousada

Audrey reported that there were three children - a son John in Geelong, a daughter Ann (deceased) and Cherry McArthur in Orbost.

Appointment as a teller Bank of NSW Castlemaine reported 7 Mar 1917

Chaplain H F Lousada submitted an invention to the Army in 1943 for dropping supplies from a plane. The invention was not adopted.

His recollection as an 87 year-old of the life of his father is given in www.barrow-lousada.org

Officiated at the Shuck-Picton wedding in Rockhampton 24 Dec 1932 and the Ware-Funk wedding 28 Mar 1932 at Mt Larcom near Brisbane

from Diana Mayne 13 Nov 2015 email to Julian Land:
Sorry I have no knowledge of Horace Frank's family. We were put in touch with him by Ruth, and our visit to Frankston in 1979 was occasioned by his recent visit to England (Nov-Dec 1978 I think) where he tried to contact David's mother, but she had just had a stroke and David's father wouldn't let him visit her - a pity as her mind was OK and she would probably have enjoyed the visit. He got to see Auntie Sophie who was in a nursing home not far away (having been moved there from London), but she was suffering dementia and couldn't figure out who he was - apparently she thought this clergyman was her brother John come back from the dead! But Frank was thrilled to see her and told us he was sure she knew who he was and was delighted to see him! So he was happy with his visit, and was also delighted to find the graves of his brothers in France.
