Addressed to: D. Hulley Esq. The Residency Stanger Natal  22 Taviton St.    W.C. Gordon Sq. Dear Done

22 Taviton St.    W.C. Gordon Sq.

Dear Done

I was pleased to hear from you, and note all you tell me.  It may be well I should tell you, that in my last Will my trustees

have set aside a sum from my Estate in  trust for you. Sums have been allocated to your sisters  May & Ellen.  You may

have heard this from your father or Ethel?  I was free to dispose of what My father left to me as I choose. I did however

promise your Father and your Aunt Ellen Hall (Nee Hully) that I would leave Something to you & May & Ellen I know

nothing of your dad’s disposition of his Estate. The One House Estate he sold however. The property had been in

Hulley possession for generations as perhaps you know.

Now, as I have touched 82 and am in good health with a fair memory, I can put you wise as to Hulleys.

Your grandfather Jasper Hulley married for first wife, a Miss Bostock who owned land. There were two children Jasper &

Mary. The former died of some illness unmarried. Later on, your Grandfather married my father’s sister Maria Holland of

Macclesfield Issue Holland, Arderne, Ellen, Maria, Elizabeth & Anne (all own cousins to me) Holland died unmarried.

Ellen married Dr. Henry Broderick of Indian Medical Service who saw Service in the Mutiny prior to his marriage. He and

Ellen spent some time in India. Broderick died in India somewhere about 1868 of sunstroke I think. Ellen came home (no

family).  Later Ellen married General Durham Hall of Central India Horse. On Hall’s retirement they lived in London (no

family). Date of Hall’s passing on I don’t at moment recollect. Ellen  continued to live at Brechin Place S.W. until her death,

when house passed on to Hall’s people.  Ellen was fortunate in enjoying the pensions from two husbands! Also use of

house & furniture, and some income from W.H. for her life.

Maria Hulley married W. Chinner a man of some means. His father was one of the first to make gas fittings shortly after gas

came into use in houses. Maria has presented you with some cousins (men). I have met only one, and have not kept in

touch.  Elizabeth married the Revd. F. Binley Dickinson who was vicar of Ashford (no family). Anne married a parson one

Meurant.  They lived near Derby (no family) both dead. Some 30 years ago I had 13 own cousins. Hollands, Hulleys &

Houghtons latter on my mother’s side whose sister married a Houghton of Chorley Lancashire. All these cousins dead but

three viz. your father, Jean  Macrobin & Major G.F. Holland.

Your father & your Uncle Holland Hulley bought land at the Noodsberg in the  fifties and kept Sheep & cattle; a poor show

as to profit. I went out to see them in Jany. 1865 and staid just a year.  On my  return I continued my chemical studies in

Manchester until death of my father in 1878. He had remarried in 1866 and lived at Windsor. I can’t say when your dad

married and lived at The Wilderness Holland (Hollie) came home and lived with his half sister Mary in various places.

When you write home keep this information to yourself.  I am the only one alive who can give you the details of your father’s

connections on the Hulley side, and who his sisters married of whom only one had children Mrs Chinner.

Your ‘dad’ began life as a mate in the Green’s ships. His first ship was The Windsor of Port of London. He made voyages to

India, Australia China and possibly Japan and brought home some  curiosities. Your Great Grandfather raised a troop of

soldiers at his own expense at time of threatened invasion by Napoleon I which ” was greatly to his credit”. All sons of

farmers I was told. Napoleon, who had constructed A flotilla of flat boats, Is reported to have said I have fifty plans for the

invasion but not one for getting back. So he never landed a man on our island. The Sawyers are in Switzerland. Nesta

is an exponent on skates and has won medals. I keep wonderfully well save for small ailments, but spend the Winter in the

house and keep busy with chemical research.   Love to all – affectly

Cousin Philip Holland

PS Did you ever meet John Ogilvie Holland, or his son John C. Holland latter is married has a job connected with mine

ventilation at ‘Joburg’. Formerly did assaying at “Knights  Deep”. J.O.H. farmed at Rietsprint, Transvaal, and died there

some 4 years ago.

Your dad is in  a poorly way. I’m told nearly blind. He gets to his club however in the  morning with Ellie’s help, and

chats with his chums.

I much fear these Communists will make for revolution. The Trade Unions sympathetic with them, and are above the law.

They want all means of production of wealth to belong to the workers – such as mines, Railways, docks, & ships!! You will

read of the wild ideas of  abolishing “the tyranny of Capital” in your newspapers. What is feared is the start of civil war by

means of strikes all over the country.… no coal, no transport, no gas, all the same there will be some killing before all is Ended.

Tales from the Necropolis

While taking photographs of the headstones in a section of the necropolis for the Glasgow Necropolis Photographing Project, three memorials stood out.

All three had inscriptions that were difficult if not impossible to read, which prompted some detective work to see if I could find more from the Internet.

The first was a memorial to Jasper Hulley, which as you can see from the picture below was almost unreadable.  What I did manage to read was:-

"SACRED TO THE MEMORY OF JASPER HULLEY, Junior Esq. OF THE ???????????????????

NEAR MACCLESFIELD , CHESHIRE

WHO DIED OF CHOLERA ON THE 21ST OF JANUARY, 1849 AGE 24 YEARS."

I decided to look up Jasper Hulley on the Internet and found a "One Name" website. I emailed the owner of the site and got the following reply, which I

permission to quote in full -

"My interest in the grave of Jasper Hulley stems from the fact that I am a One-Namer - I have registered the name with the Guild of One-Name Studies

and collect all  references to the surname and its variants. The name is prevalent in Lancashire (where I was born), Cheshire, Yorkshire, Derbyshire

and Cunbria,  I have family trees constructed from each of those counties which points to a locative name  origin.  The Hulley family of Rainow near

Macclesfield is particularly interesting in that I have traced its ancestry back to 1488. This is when John Hulley was granted the tenure of The One

House in Rainow, near Macclesfield, probably as a result of his work in Macclesfield Forest, the King's hunting ground. The family lived at The One

House until c1861 when Arderne, a son of the family, moved to South Africa and left his widowed mother and four sisters at The One House. His elder

brother, Holland, inherited the property on the death of his father in 1867 but never lived there. Holland died in 1904 and Arderne inherited The One

House but preferred to live in SA. The house stayed in Hulley hands until c1912.  I wrote a book which I now out of print (The History and Hulley

Families of the One House  ISBN 0-9540314-0-7 published by Longview Publishing 2001) which covers the period from 166 up to the present time.

You may be able to access it in the National Library of Edinburgh, where a copy of each published book is held.

Japer Hulley junior was born at Park Gate, Cheshire, in 1824. His death in Glasgow is recorded in the family bible thus:

Jasper Hulley Son of the before mentioned Jasper and Ellen Hulley departed this life at Glasgow on the twenty first day of January 1849 [of an

attack of Asiatic Cholera which he survived but a few hours] aged twenty four years and ten months, and was buried in the New Necropolis in a grave

purchased for the occasion the title of which we hold.

He may have  been studying at the University but I have no knowledge of why he was living in Glagow at the time of his death.

From the above, the missing section of the inscription is "ONE HOUSE" and the date reads  ON THE 21ST JANUARY 1849.

Several years ago I made enquiries of the cemetery, which confirmed the grave's  existence, and had every intention  of visiting it  sometime in the

future. Your work has meant that I have no need to make such a journey; instead I shall send a donation to  your society.  Thank you once again for

your initiative in  contacting me and for your kindness.

Best wishes, Ray"

JAMES HOOLEY, OF WOODTHORPE, CO. NOTTS

I should be much obliged if any of your correspondents could give me any information as to the ancestors of the above-named Mr. James Hooley,

who was, I believe, a deputy-lieutenant of that county. His only son, Samuel Cutler Hooley, had a daughter, married to Mr. Owen Davies in 1826.

The name Hooley, Hulley, or Howley is that of a family long seated near Macclesfield, and also one at Dukinfield, in Cheshire, and later at

Manchester, and I should be glad to know whether Mr. James Hooley descended from either of these families or not. Replies may be sent to me

Dear Done

I was pleased to hear from you, and note all you tell me.  It may be well I should tell you, that in my last Will my trustees

have set aside a sum from my Estate in  trust for you. Sums have been allocated to your sisters  May & Ellen.  You may

have heard this from your father or Ethel?  I was free to dispose of what My father left to me as I choose. I did however

promise your Father and your Aunt Ellen Hall (Nee Hully) that I would leave Something to you & May & Ellen I know

nothing of your dad’s disposition of his Estate. The One House Estate he sold however. The property had been in

Hulley possession for generations as perhaps you know.

Now, as I have touched 82 and am in good health with a fair memory, I can put you wise as to Hulleys.

Your grandfather Jasper Hulley married for first wife, a Miss Bostock who owned land. There were two children Jasper &

Mary. The former died of some illness unmarried. Later on, your Grandfather married my father’s sister Maria Holland of

Macclesfield Issue Holland, Arderne, Ellen, Maria, Elizabeth & Anne (all own cousins to me) Holland died unmarried.

Ellen married Dr. Henry Broderick of Indian Medical Service who saw Service in the Mutiny prior to his marriage. He and

Ellen spent some time in India. Broderick died in India somewhere about 1868 of sunstroke I think. Ellen came home (no

family).  Later Ellen married General Durham Hall of Central India Horse. On Hall’s retirement they lived in London (no

family). Date of Hall’s passing on I don’t at moment recollect. Ellen  continued to live at Brechin Place S.W. until her death,

when house passed on to Hall’s people.  Ellen was fortunate in enjoying the pensions from two husbands! Also use of

house & furniture, and some income from W.H. for her life.

Maria Hulley married W. Chinner a man of some means. His father was one of the first to make gas fittings shortly after gas

came into use in houses. Maria has presented you with some cousins (men). I have met only one, and have not kept in

touch.  Elizabeth married the Revd. F. Binley Dickinson who was vicar of Ashford (no family). Anne married a parson one

Meurant.  They lived near Derby (no family) both dead. Some 30 years ago I had 13 own cousins. Hollands, Hulleys &

Houghtons latter on my mother’s side whose sister married a Houghton of Chorley Lancashire. All these cousins dead but

three viz. your father, Jean  Macrobin & Major G.F. Holland.

Your father & your Uncle Holland Hulley bought land at the Noodsberg in the  fifties and kept Sheep & cattle; a poor show

as to profit. I went out to see them in Jany. 1865 and staid just a year.  On my  return I continued my chemical studies in

Manchester until death of my father in 1878. He had remarried in 1866 and lived at Windsor. I can’t say when your dad

married and lived at The Wilderness Holland (Hollie) came home and lived with his half sister Mary in various places.

When you write home keep this information to yourself.  I am the only one alive who can give you the details of your father’s

connections on the Hulley side, and who his sisters married of whom only one had children Mrs Chinner.

Your ‘dad’ began life as a mate in the Green’s ships. His first ship was The Windsor of Port of London. He made voyages to

India, Australia China and possibly Japan and brought home some  curiosities. Your Great Grandfather raised a troop of

soldiers at his own expense at time of threatened invasion by Napoleon I which ” was greatly to his credit”. All sons of

farmers I was told. Napoleon, who had constructed A flotilla of flat boats, Is reported to have said I have fifty plans for the

invasion but not one for getting back. So he never landed a man on our island. The Sawyers are in Switzerland. Nesta

is an exponent on skates and has won medals. I keep wonderfully well save for small ailments, but spend the Winter in the

house and keep busy with chemical research.   Love to all – affectly

Cousin Philip Holland

PS Did you ever meet John Ogilvie Holland, or his son John C. Holland latter is married has a job connected with mine

ventilation at ‘Joburg’. Formerly did assaying at “Knights  Deep”. J.O.H. farmed at Rietsprint, Transvaal, and died there

some 4 years ago.

Your dad is in  a poorly way. I’m told nearly blind. He gets to his club however in the  morning with Ellie’s help, and

chats with his chums.

I much fear these Communists will make for revolution. The Trade Unions sympathetic with them, and are above the law.

They want all mans of production of wealth to belong to the workers – such as mines, Railways, docks, & ships!! You will

read of the wild ideas of  abolishing “the tyranny of Capital” in your newspapers. What is feared is the start of civil war by

means of strikes all over the country.… no coal, no transport, no gas, all the same there will be some killing before all is Ended.

Information from John Powell (06 Feb 2018)

Note: The following information showing the movement of Arderne Hulley/Hully into South Africa in the period 1859 to 1867 is considered a possibility

and not a definite fact at this stage, until further evidence comes to light.

1. Mr HULLEY, Cabin passenger, arrived Durban, 29 Mar 1861 aboard the SS Waldensian, steamer, 285 tons, Captain WA JOSS. Ship sailed from

29 Mar 1861

the Cape on 27 Mar 1861. Returning to Table Bay 9 April.

This is obviously not the Waldensian which was launched in 1861 as the St Andrew and plied the Canada Route for the Allen Line.

"In the year 1861 the mails for Natal were brought from England with the mails for the Cape Colony as they have been since. In those days a

coasting steamer ran between Capetown and Natal named the Waldensian and she did the work as quickly as time and weather permitted."

"The Rennie steamer WALDENSIAN was wrecked in October 1862..."

2. Mr HULLY (sic), passenger, arrived Durban, 22 Nov 1862, aboard the Bri , Lord Clarendon, 273 tons, Captian C. (Chasemoore) Howard. Ship Brig, Lord Clarendon, 273 tons, Captain C

22 Nov 1862

sailed from London on 9 Jul 1862, and from Rio de Janeiro on ?12 Oct. 1862. Onward to Mauritius on 18 Jan 1863.

This was an extremely slow voyage by all accounts. One of the passengers, a Mr Nicolson (apparently the correct spelling), wrote a diary of this

exact voyage, which I read through, hoping he had mentioned Mr HULLY, but he named no names, so I was disappointed. mentioned Mr HULLY, but he named no names, so I was disappointed

Letter from Arderne Hulley to Bobbie

25 March    Nanyman Zululand   (undated)

My dear Bobbie I was very glad to have your bit of a letter and Ellies which, however, you forgot to post and I was wondering why no one wrote to

me. I am glad to hear that Ben? is looking so well, but he is very old now and not able to do much work, he is like his old master in that respect.  I

I am glad to hear that Ben? is looking so well, but he is very old now and not able to do much work, he is like his old master in that respect.  I have

a pony now, and on Saturday I am going to have a  large hunt about 14 miles from here, and will take the pony as I cannot walk as well as I could .

We shall have tents and remain there for three days.

I wonder whether Mother would like me to send her a panther skin and a lot of rhinoceros sjamboks and a rhinoceros head and some horns. I

have them all here as I brought them with me from UBombo? - there is a fine pair of buffalo horns and a pair of Nyala horns, but they are not very

pretty to look at, and the sjamboks are in the rough and want paring down and polishing and then they will make nice riding whips - M Corbel

must have some of the sjamboks, and perhaps Mother could have the horns and head made nice and get a chance of sending them to Uncle

Durham in London -  You never say how you are doing at school, and I am so anxious to know.

Give my love to Mother, May, & Ellen and I am always

Your affect. Father

Arderne Hulley

Notes on the above letter

1. The letter is undated but there are a few clues in it to narrow down the period in which it was written.

2.  I presume that the author is Arderne Hulley (1836-1927) who calls himself ‘Father’. ‘Mother’ will be his  wife Fanny C A who died in 1899.

3.  I'm not sure who the recipient ‘Bobbie’ is.  The only Bobbie in the family appears to be Jasper Robert Arderne who was born in 1910, after the

death of Arderne’s wife Fanny, so he would not fit in. The only remaining possibilities are Jasper Done Clarence Hulley, his eldest living son

born 1877 or Arthur Henry Booth Hulley his youngest son born 1883. The letter implies that he is at school so I would speculate that he is

writing to his eldest son Jasper.

4. ‘Uncle Durham’ is the second husband of Ellen his sister born 1837.  She married John Durham Hall in 1874. He died in 1898 so the period

in question is between 1887 and 1898.

5. May is probably Mary Arderne born 1874 and Ellie is Ellie Gorton born before 1878, both his children.

Higher Moor are cut by an inexpert hand the letters and date A H XXVII MAY 1911 – Arderne Hulley, May 27 1911. It is as if the sun had set and

the shades of night were closing in about the One House when Arderne Hulley took his stand on Hooley Moor and looked down upon the home

of his fathers and the parcel of land lying in Rainow  that had been theirs for four hundred and twenty years.

Dear Done

I was pleased to hear from you, and note all you tell me.  It may be well I should tell you, that in my last Will my trustees

have set aside a sum from my Estate in  trust for you. Sums have been allocated to your sisters  May & Ellen.  You may

have heard this from your father or Ethel?  I was free to dispose of what My father left to me as I choose. I did however

promise your Father and your Aunt Ellen Hall (Nee Hully) that I would leave Something to you & May & Ellen I know

nothing of your dad’s disposition of his Estate. The One House Estate he sold however. The property had been in

Hulley possession for generations as perhaps you know.

Now, as I have touched 82 and am in good health with a fair memory, I can put you wise as to Hulleys.

Your grandfather Jasper Hulley married for first wife, a Miss Bostock who owned land. There were two children Jasper &

Mary. The former died of some illness unmarried. Later on, your Grandfather married my father’s sister Maria Holland of

Macclesfield Issue Holland, Arderne, Ellen, Maria, Elizabeth & Anne (all own cousins to me) Holland died unmarried.

Ellen married Dr. Henry Broderick of Indian Medical Service who saw Service in the Mutiny prior to his marriage. He and

Ellen spent some time in India. Broderick died in India somewhere about 1868 of sunstroke I think. Ellen came home (no

family).  Later Ellen married General Durham Hall of Central India Horse. On Hall’s retirement they lived in London (no

family). Date of Hall’s passing on I don’t at moment recollect. Ellen  continued to live at Brechin Place S.W. until her death,

when house passed on to Hall’s people.  Ellen was fortunate in enjoying the pensions from two husbands! Also use of

house & furniture, and some income from W.H. for her life.

Maria Hulley married W. Chinner a man of some means. His father was one of the first to make gas fittings shortly after gas

came into use in houses. Maria has presented you with some cousins (men). I have met only one, and have not kept in

touch.  Elizabeth married the Revd. F. Binley Dickinson who was vicar of Ashford (no family). Anne married a parson one

Meurant.  They lived near Derby (no family) both dead. Some 30 years ago I had 13 own cousins. Hollands, Hulleys &

Houghtons latter on my mother’s side whose sister married a Houghton of Chorley Lancashire. All these cousins dead but

three viz. your father, Jean  Macrobin & Major G.F. Holland.

Your father & your Uncle Holland Hulley bought land at the Noodsberg in the  fifties and kept Sheep & cattle; a poor show

as to profit. I went out to see them in Jany. 1865 and staid just a year.  On my  return I continued my chemical studies in

Manchester until death of my father in 1878. He had remarried in 1866 and lived at Windsor. I can’t say when your dad

married and lived at The Wilderness Holland (Hollie) came home and lived with his half sister Mary in various places.

When you write home keep this information to yourself.  I am the only one alive who can give you the details of your father’s

connections on the Hulley side, and who his sisters married of whom only one had children Mrs Chinner.

Your ‘dad’ began life as a mate in the Green’s ships. His first ship was The Windsor of Port of London. He made voyages to

India, Australia China and possibly Japan and brought home some  curiosities. Your Great Grandfather raised a troop of

soldiers at his own expense at time of threatened invasion by Napoleon I which ” was greatly to his credit”. All sons of

farmers I was told. Napoleon, who had constructed A flotilla of flat boats, Is reported to have said I have fifty plans for the

invasion but not one for getting back. So he never landed a man on our island. The Sawyers are in Switzerland. Nesta

is an exponent on skates and has won medals. I keep wonderfully well save for small ailments, but spend the Winter in the

house and keep busy with chemical research.   Love to all – affectly

Cousin Philip Holland

PS Did you ever meet John Ogilvie Holland, or his son John C. Holland latter is married has a job connected with mine

ventilation at ‘Joburg’. Formerly did assaying at “Knights  Deep”. J.O.H. farmed at Rietsprint, Transvaal, and died there

some 4 years ago.

Your dad is in  a poorly way. I’m told nearly blind. He gets to his club however in the  morning with Ellie’s help, and

chats with his chums.

I much fear these Communists will make for revolution. The Trade Unions sympathetic with them, and are above the law.

They want all mans of production of wealth to belong to the workers – such as mines, Railways, docks, & ships!! You will

read of the wild ideas of  abolishing “the tyranny of Capital” in your newspapers. What is feared is the start of civil war by

means of strikes all over the country.… no coal, no transport, no gas, all the same there will be some killing before all is Ended.

nothing of your dad’s disposition of his Estate. The One House Estate he sold however. The property had been in

Hulley possession for generations as perhaps you know.

Now, as I have touched 82 and am in good health with a fair memory, I can put you wise as to Hulleys.

Your grandfather Jasper Hulley married for first wife, a Miss Bostock who owned land. There were two children Jasper &

Mary. The former died of some illness unmarried. Later on, your Grandfather married my father’s sister Maria Holland of

Maria Hulley married W. Chinner a man of some means. His father was one of the first to make gas fittings shortly after gas

came into use in houses. Maria has presented you with some cousins (men). I have met only one, and have not kept in

touch.  Elizabeth married the Revd. F. Binley Dickinson who was vicar of Ashford (no family). Anne married a parson one

three viz. your father, Jean  Macrobin & Major G.F. Holland.

I much fear these Communists will make for revolution. The Trade Unions sympathetic with them, and are above the law.

They want all mans of production of wealth to belong to the workers – such as mines, Railways, docks, & ships!! You will

means of strikes all over the country.… no coal, no transport, no gas, all the same there will be some killing before all is Ended.

Letter from Mr. Howard Chinner

May 1999

Mr Howard Chinner has written to advise me that he has come into the possession of a diary written by a Mrs Brodrick (or Broderick) of

Macclesfield which describes a sea journey to India made by herself and her husband Dr Henry Brodrick (Broderick)  who was a member of the

English Army stationed in India.  The voyage took place took from 14 Oct 1868 to 22 Jan 1869 and the diary goes on until 5 Nov 1869.    Henry

Brodrick died in Madras in May 1869 and his wife returned to England shortly afterwards.   Research has  identified the wife as Ellen Brodrick

nee Hulley of the One House.

Addressed to: D. Hulley Esq. The Residency Stanger Natal  22 Taviton St.    W.C. Gordon Sq. Dear Done

Dear Done

I was pleased to hear from you, and note all you tell me.  It may be well I should tell you, that in my last Will my trustees

have set aside a sum from my Estate in  trust for you. Sums have been allocated to your sisters  May & Ellen.  You may

have heard this from your father or Ethel?  I was free to dispose of what My father left to me as I choose. I did however

promise your Father and your Aunt Ellen Hall (Nee Hully) that I would leave Something to you & May & Ellen I know

nothing of your dad’s disposition of his Estate. The One House Estate he sold however. The property had been in

Hulley possession for generations as perhaps you know.

Now, as I have touched 82 and am in good health with a fair memory, I can put you wise as to Hulleys.

Your grandfather Jasper Hulley married for first wife, a Miss Bostock who owned land. There were two children Jasper &

Mary. The former died of some illness unmarried. Later on, your Grandfather married my father’s sister Maria Holland of

Macclesfield Issue Holland, Arderne, Ellen, Maria, Elizabeth & Anne (all own cousins to me) Holland died unmarried.

Ellen married Dr. Henry Broderick of Indian Medical Service who saw Service in the Mutiny prior to his marriage. He and

Ellen spent some time in India. Broderick died in India somewhere about 1868 of sunstroke I think. Ellen came home (no

family).  Later Ellen married General Durham Hall of Central India Horse. On Hall’s retirement they lived in London (no

family). Date of Hall’s passing on I don’t at moment recollect. Ellen  continued to live at Brechin Place S.W. until her death,

when house passed on to Hall’s people.  Ellen was fortunate in enjoying the pensions from two husbands! Also use of

house & furniture, and some income from W.H. for her life.

Maria Hulley married W. Chinner a man of some means. His father was one of the first to make gas fittings shortly after gas

came into use in houses. Maria has presented you with some cousins (men). I have met only one, and have not kept in

touch.  Elizabeth married the Revd. F. Binley Dickinson who was vicar of Ashford (no family). Anne married a parson one

Meurant.  They lived near Derby (no family) both dead. Some 30 years ago I had 13 own cousins. Hollands, Hulleys &

Houghtons latter on my mother’s side whose sister married a Houghton of Chorley Lancashire. All these cousins dead but

three viz. your father, Jean  Macrobin & Major G.F. Holland.

Your father & your Uncle Holland Hulley bought land at the Noodsberg in the  fifties and kept Sheep & cattle; a poor show

as to profit. I went out to see them in Jany. 1865 and staid just a year.  On my  return I continued my chemical studies in

Manchester until death of my father in 1878. He had remarried in 1866 and lived at Windsor. I can’t say when your dad

married and lived at The Wilderness Holland (Hollie) came home and lived with his half sister Mary in various places.

When you write home keep this information to yourself.  I am the only one alive who can give you the details of your father’s

connections on the Hulley side, and who his sisters married of whom only one had children Mrs Chinner.

Your ‘dad’ began life as a mate in the Green’s ships. His first ship was The Windsor of Port of London. He made voyages to

India, Australia China and possibly Japan and brought home some  curiosities. Your Great Grandfather raised a troop of

soldiers at his own expense at time of threatened invasion by Napoleon I which ” was greatly to his credit”. All sons of

farmers I was told. Napoleon, who had constructed A flotilla of flat boats, Is reported to have said I have fifty plans for the

invasion but not one for getting back. So he never landed a man on our island. The Sawyers are in Switzerland. Nesta

is an exponent on skates and has won medals. I keep wonderfully well save for small ailments, but spend the Winter in the

house and keep busy with chemical research.   Love to all – affectly

Cousin Philip Holland

PS Did you ever meet John Ogilvie Holland, or his son John C. Holland latter is married has a job connected with mine

ventilation at ‘Joburg’. Formerly did assaying at “Knights  Deep”. J.O.H. farmed at Rietsprint, Transvaal, and died there

some 4 years ago.

Your dad is in  a poorly way. I’m told nearly blind. He gets to his club however in the  morning with Ellie’s help, and

chats with his chums.

I much fear these Communists will make for revolution. The Trade Unions sympathetic with them, and are above the law.

They want all mans of production of wealth to belong to the workers – such as mines, Railways, docks, & ships!! You will

read of the wild ideas of  abolishing “the tyranny of Capital” in your newspapers. What is feared is the start of civil war by

means of strikes all over the country.… no coal, no transport, no gas, all the same there will be some killing before all is Ended.

Maria Hulley married W. Chinner a man of some means. His father was one of the first to make gas fittings shortly after gas

came into use in houses. Maria has presented you with some cousins (men). I have met only one, and have not kept in

touch.  Elizabeth married the Revd. F. Binley Dickinson who was vicar of Ashford (no family). Anne married a parson one

Meurant.  They lived near Derby (no family) both dead. Some 30 years ago I had 13 own cousins. Hollands, Hulleys &

Houghtons latter on my mother’s side whose sister married a Houghton of Chorley Lancashire. All these cousins dead but

three viz. your father, Jean  Macrobin & Major G.F. Holland.

Your father & your Uncle Holland Hulley bought land at the Noodsberg in the  fifties and kept Sheep & cattle; a poor show

as to profit. I went out to see them in Jany. 1865 and staid just a year.  On my  return I continued my chemical studies in

Manchester until death of my father in 1878. He had remarried in 1866 and lived at Windsor. I can’t say when your dad

married and lived at The Wilderness Holland (Hollie) came home and lived with his half sister Mary in various places.

When you write home keep this information to yourself.  I am the only one alive who can give you the details of your father’s

connections on the Hulley side, and who his sisters married of whom only one had children Mrs Chinner.

Your ‘dad’ began life as a mate in the Green’s ships. His first ship was The Windsor of Port of London. He made voyages to

India, Australia China and possibly Japan and brought home some  curiosities. Your Great Grandfather raised a troop of

soldiers at his own expense at time of threatened invasion by Napoleon I which ” was greatly to his credit”. All sons of

farmers I was told. Napoleon, who had constructed A flotilla of flat boats, Is reported to have said I have fifty plans for the

invasion but not one for getting back. So he never landed a man on our island. The Sawyers are in Switzerland. Nesta

is an exponent on skates and has won medals. I keep wonderfully well save for small ailments, but spend the Winter in the

house and keep busy with chemical research.   Love to all – affectly

Cousin Philip Holland

PS Did you ever meet John Ogilvie Holland, or his son John C. Holland latter is married has a job connected with mine

ventilation at ‘Joburg’. Formerly did assaying at “Knights  Deep”. J.O.H. farmed at Rietsprint, Transvaal, and died there

some 4 years ago.

Your dad is in  a poorly way. I’m told nearly blind. He gets to his club however in the  morning with Ellie’s help, and

chats with his chums.

I much fear these Communists will make for revolution. The Trade Unions sympathetic with them, and are above the law.

They want all mans of production of wealth to belong to the workers – such as mines, Railways, docks, & ships!! You will

read of the wild ideas of  abolishing “the tyranny of Capital” in your newspapers. What is feared is the start of civil war by

means of strikes all over the country.… no coal, no transport, no gas, all the same there will be some killing before all is Ended.

Hello Ray,

Here is what I have so far, about the Rev. Arthur Richardson Meurant :

He was born in Dublin on 18th June, 1821, first child of Edward & Anne Meurant. His siblings were -- Elizabeth, Anne, Frances, Edward & William.

His grandfather was Ferdinand Charles Meurant, an engraver/jeweller/silversmith/watchmaker, who had come from France in the late 1780s, and who

was tried on forgery charges in Kilmainham, Dublin, inMarch 1798, and sentenced to death, which sentence was subsequently commuted to 'transport-

-ation for life' to Australia.

Arthur went to sea as a midshipman in 1837 (aged 16), and, on the 18th October, 1847, Arthur (then calling himself “de Meurant”, and living at Tower

Hill, London) was in the Mercantile Navy, and received a 2nd class certificate as Master from the examining board of  Trinity House, London.  On 20th

October, 1848, in London, he was ‘ticketed’ (became a merchant seaman) in capacity as mate, in the Merchant Navy (register ticket no. 434329.

On 19th February, 1849, Arthur (now calling himself Captain de Meurant, of the East India Service), married Julia Browne (nee Kelly), sister of

Isabella Kelly, wife of William Vincent Wallace, composer, in Melbourne. On 20th May 1850 a daughter, Sarah Anne (Annie), was born to Julia & Arthur

at Sea View Cottage, Paddington.

His wife, Julia, died on 10th September 1861, in Sydney (death registered under ‘Demurent’) ; she left nothing to her husband Arthur, which might

indicate that they were not on good terms, or had separated. Strangely, she refers to herself as a widow in her will ; however, the death notice in the

press referred to Arthur as her husband.

After Julia’s death, Arthur returned to Ireland. Around 1862, he married a girl called Alice, in Dublin. They had 2 daughters there – Amy, in 1863 &

Alice, in 1865.

Around 1865, the family moved to Birkenhead, Chesire, where Arthur began his religious studies at St Aidan’s College, and where, in January, 1871,

Alice had a son, Arthur R.

It would seem that Arthur & Alice spent much time apart over the next 10 years (or had separated), because he was not living with the family in 1871,

1881 or 1891 (and, of course, he married Sarah Hulley in 1880).

His religious life was as follows :

·         He studied at St. Aidan’s Theological College, Birkenhead, from 1864/65 to 1866/67, and was made a Deacon in 1867 by the

·        Bishop of Chester for the Bishop of Lichfield. He was appointed curate of Northwood, Stoke-upon Trent, Staffordshire, in 1867.

·        He was admitted into holy orders as a priest on 12th January, 1868 by Dr. Selwyn, Bishop of Lichfield, and, in that year, appoint-

·        -ed curate of Oakham (diocese of Peterborough), living at Melton Road, Oakham.    In 1869 he became senior curate of St. Barn

·         On 11th October 1870 he was appointed senior curate in Wakefield parish church, and lived at 130 Rodney Yard, Wakefield ; he

·         Sometime in 1871 he was appointed curate in the parish of Soham, East Cambridgeshire.

·         In November 1872, he was in Chester, Macclesfield County, Chesire ; he was still in Chester in June 1874. Also in 1874, he was

·         In 1876 he was curate of North Wingfield, Chesterfield, Derbyshire (diocese of Lichfield). In 1878, he lived at 27 Eyre Street,

·         In mid-August 1880, Arthur was appointed perpetual curate of Stanley, Derbyshire.

Then, on 24th August, in All Saint’s Church, Windsor, Arthur, then aged 59, married 37 year old Sarah Ann (Annie) Hulley, of

“The One House”, Rainow, Macclesfield, Cheshire ; they settled in Stanley.

·         In June 1888, Arthur received a General License to Curacy from the Bishop of Lichfield.

In 1891 Arthur & Sarah were living at ‘The Elms’ in Seisdon, Trysull, Staffordshire, and he had retired from religious orders ;

Sarah’s sister, Maria Chinner (wife/widow of William Chinner of the Foxhills near Wolverhampton) was visiting them.

Arthur died at ‘Sunnyside’ vicarage, Seisdon, Trysull, near Wolverhampton, on 4th March 1894, aged 72 (his brother-in-law, Holland Hulley, aged 59,

was present at death) ; cause of death was Paralysis & Asthenia. His executors were his brother, Edward Meurant, and John Somerville, surgeon.

Had he separated from Sarah?

Arthur had a varied life, and I am currently on the trail of his wife & children (whom he seems to have abandoned prior to his marriage to Sarah Anne

Hulley).
