|
| 2621 | Samuel Brandon inherited the love for market gardening and the wealth that went with it. He was the oldest of Richard and Henrietta's children. He must have been born on, grew up, and worked on the market gardens at Rotherhithe. Samuel's grandson, Ted, said that he remembers his father saying "They used to have hundreds of Irish workmen on the gardens." In 1843 the gardens consisted of a number of paddocks near Deptford Lower Road, and bounded by Paradise Row and Prospect Place. Adjoining his property on the Deptford Lower Road were further paddocks in pasture belonging to William, Samuel's younger brother. At some stage, Samuel moved to Marlow, in Buckinghamshire. He called his house there, 'Suffolk Lodge' a reference to their belief that they were descended from the famous Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk. He moved there because he was on the staff of the royal household at Windsor. In his will he left £16,000. After his death Jane lived on at Suffolk Lodge with her son Samuel. | Brandon, Samuel (I11476)

|
| 2625 | Samuel was a Dairyman, Labourer, Husbandsman, Agricultural Labourer at Aylesbeare, and a Dairyman at Rockbeare. | Bricknell, Samuel Drake (I1970)
|
| 2626 | Samuel was baptised on 20 July 1834 in Randwick, Gloucestershire. He was able to read and write. He worked as a cloth worker and also a farm labourer with his brother George before the family's emigration. After his arrival in Australia, he worked with his family until marrying Elizabeth Jane Anderson on 6 January 1876 at Singleton, New South Wales. Samuel and his family had a leasehold residence at Falbrook for some time, then a residence at Emu Creek during the years of 1878 and 1891. They had five children. Samuel died on 3 Dec 1915 at the age of 81, from senility and diarrhoea. He is buried at the Catholic Cemetery Singleton.

|
| 2627 | Samuel was born on 14 July 1849 at Sydney. Educated at Fort Street School and Camden College, he joined his father's firm at 17 and in 1886 paid £158,252 for Anthony's share, becoming sole proprietor of 'Anthony Hordern and Sons, Universal Providers, Palace Emporium, Haymarket [ONLY]', to distinguish it from five other competing Hordern shops in Sydney. On 10 July 1901 fire destroyed all the Haymarket complex but Samuel leased the Exhibition building and opened there next day. In 1905 he had new premises on Brickfield Hill. He was generous to his staff of over 4000 and provided a cafeteria and other amenities. City and suburban land speculation added to his wealth and his success brought comments on his 'glorified sockselling' and 'insolent monopoly'. Samuel gave privately to many charities. A federalist and imperialist, he gave £10,000 to the Dreadnought Fund. In 1892 he was commodore of the Prince Alfred Yacht Club and an active member of the Royal Sydney Yacht Squadron. His love of the country led him in the 1880s to buy Wilton Park, Picton, and in 1887 to build Retford Park, near Bowral, where he bred Jersey and Ayrshire cattle. After wining the Sydney Cup in 1893 with Realm and the Metropolitan in 1896 with The Skipper, he concentrated on breeding horses. He kept homing pigeons and was vice-president of the Royal Agricultural Society. Samuel died at Darling Point on 13 August 1909 and was buried in the Anglican section of Rookwood cemetery. He was survived by four of his five sons, by four daughters and by his wife Jane Maria, nee Booth, whom he had married on 11 November 1875 at Sydney. In 1910 his estate of £2,925,925 was upheld by the Privy Council after two sons of Anthony had tried to upset the 1878 deed of partnership. Samuel's eldest son, Sir Samuel Hordern (1876-1956), became governing director of Anthony Hordern and Sons when it was made a private company in 1912. | Hordern, Samuel (I14820)

|
| 2629 | Samuel's occupation includes a note which indicates that he was "Pensioned from the Royal Buckhounds" where he held the position of "Huntsman's Valet". [Ed. The Master of the Buckhounds was an officer in the Master of the Horse's department of the British Royal Household. The holder was also His/Her Majesty's Representative at Ascot. It was a political office, so the holder, who was always a nobleman, changed with every change of government. The office was abolished by the Civil List Act 1901. The last post was held by Charles Cavendish, 3rd Baron Chesham on 1 November 1900. (A buckhound is smaller than a staghound and used for coursing the smaller breeds of deer, especially fallow deer.)]. | Edwards, Samuel (I28247)
|
| 2630 | Samuel, never married, he ran the family farm at Nabiac for his father Charles. Sam also, with his brother Ernest Brandon Wooster, ran the butchery at Nabiac which was located on the farm.

| 2646 | Selina had 8 Wooster children but what happened to her husband after the 1891 census is unclear. In the 1901 census, Selina is living with her children in Harrw Weald. Although she gives her marital status as "Married", there is no sign of husband Edward. In the 1911 census, her 2 yougest children are living under the roof of John Bass where they are defined as "Boarders". John claims to be married to "Ina" and to have had 2 daughters. On the actual census return, there is a conveniently large ink-blot over the first name of his wife and after very close examination, the name underneath appears to be "**lina". Although they claim to be married, there is no record of John Bass marrying at the time he says. In fact, John Bass and Selina Wooster didnt marry until 1931. | Milton, Selina (I23935)

Although unspecific, the word "Rash" appears on his record; perhaps this might refer to the effects of gas? Louis was released from hospital on 1 April 1917 and returned to his unit. Louis was charged with being Absent Without Leave on 6 October 1917 when he failed to return to his unit after being given leave in Paris. He was absent for 4 days.

Dvr WITHAM, although himself wounded, immediately picked himself up and went to the assistance of the other drivers. Although the shell fire was particularly heavy and concentrated on this one point, this Dvr with utter disregard of personal danger, extricated from amongst the dying mules, one of the other drivers who was badly wounded, and still under heavy shell fire carried him 200 yds. to a sap where his wound could be dressed. His coolness under fire and his disregard of personal danger, although wounded, set a very high example of courage and devotion to duty."

| 2678 | Shortly after arrival in New South Wales, on 25 December 1841 with his cousin Samuel, Simeon founded the town of Randwick in memory of his home town in Gloucestershire, England. During his residence there of nearly forty-two years, he filled several important Government positions, one of which was Commissioner for Crown Lands. Simeon was also one of the oldest magistrates of the colony. As a result of Simeons work, the municipality or Randwick was formed and gazetted. He for several years acted as Mayor, and afterwards as an Alderman. He was also a director of the Randwick Asylum for nearly thirty years, as well as being vice-president. Information about him can be found in the pages of Randwick City Council's website. For Randwick, see this Wikipedia article St Judes Church in Randwick, was designed under the direction of Simeon to resemble as close as possible, the old church of his birthplace. His residence he called after that of his minister in England, Blenheim House. He was followed to the grave in St. Jude's burying ground by 500 persons. Four ministers officiated at the burial service. A tablet to his memory is placed in the Asylum for Destitute Children there, on which is the following inscription:-- "In memory of Simeon Henry Pearce, Esq., J.P., Vice-President of this institution. Born at Randwick, Gloucestershire England, Jan. 27th, 1821. Died .Jan. 18th, 1886.

| 2687 | Sometime following the 1891 census, Arthur, who was recorded as a Labourer, started a coal merchant's business in the railway sidings at Harrow and Wealdstone Station. By 1914, the business, known as Arthur Wooster and Sons, had relocated to offices nearby as a result of the rebuilding of the area around the station. In 1901, alongside his business, Arthur was a Carman Contractor (this was the term used for removals, deliveries and taxis at this time). By 1919, he had branched out and started his own Removals business at 106 Canning Road, Wealdstone. This was in addition to the Coal Merchant's business in the High Street. The removals business must have been very successful, as Arthur employed many men at the yard which was next door to his house. Also next door were stables and a dairy. Arthur kept cows on land in Headstone Drive and had to cross Wealdstone High Street to take them for milking in Canning Road. After 1920, Arthur continued to go from strength to strength by becoming a property landlord; buying and letting property in the area. After his death, Arthur's widow Emma inherited the Garraway Cab Company which Arthur had run. She turned the site into a market but because of the cobblestones, it failed to attract enough custom for the traders and part of it became an amusement and special displays area. | Wooster, Arthur (I3435)
