Hi Lyn, nice to find another cousin. I believe my great grandfather George was a brother to Emma, his daughter Elizabeth was my grandmother. I did attend a Bromhead reunion some years ago but have had little contact with the family since.

Hi Lyn
Emma Bromhead was a sister to my great grandmother Charlotte Bromhead. While I know a lot about the Bromheads I am always looking for extra info about them in Maitland and Calais and Nottingham. What did they do? Where did they live in Maitland? Do you know about the Lacemakers Society for descendants of the lacemakers who came to Australia in 1848?
I am very happy to exchange info with you. You can contact me directly on email ozgen@tpg.com.au

Does anyone know if the Bromheads who originated in East Leake, Nottingam, and who migrated to Australia with the
Calais lacemakers in 1848, are connected to the Gonville
Bromhead line of Thurlby, Lincolnshire. Thanks in advance.

My Bromheads were from East Leake/Nottingham. Joseph Bromhead born abt 1799 married Sarah Greensmith in Oct 1818. Son was John born Jun 1820, married Jane Swift in 1845. They came to Australia in 1848.
Joseph's father was Joseph born abt 1771 married Ann Burrows born 1769. Possible Joseph's father was Benjamin died abt 1806. Before coming to Australia they were lace makers and worked in Calais for some time.

Any help much appreciated.

No, sorry, Stephen. However, if you supply dates, it might help find the right family.

Does your tree contain a Joseph Bromhead or John Bromhead born in East Leake and migrated to Australia after some time in Calais?

Lt Gonville Bromhead VC - Rorke's Drift

PeterChard — 2007-02-27 01:54:26Z

To Bromhead Family members
The Defence of Rorke’s Drift on the 22nd and 23rd of January 1879, was an epic battle in the British struggle for southern Africa. 155 ordinary men displayed extraordinary gallantry. Over two summer days a fearsome and overwhelming force mercilessly pinned them down. Yet the defenders, who were ill prepared by their political and military masters for the engagement, tirelessly repelled the onslaught. Every man, friend and foe, fought for life and honour. Every man was a hero.
Lieutenants Chard, Royal Engineers, and Bromhead, 24th Regiment, led with intelligence and tenacity. They, along with nine other soldiers, were awarded the highest honour in the British Empire, the Victoria Cross. Five other soldiers were awarded the Distinguished Conduct Medal. The British Roll of Honour deserves 155 names.

I have reproduced in oil, the painting from 1880 by Alphonse de Neuville.

Was your Edward Burton Bromhead the son of Edward Burton Bromhead and Helen, possibly Smith? I found their names in the 1930 Federal Census of Santa Monica, California. It is possible that he could be my grandfather's cousin. Gfather is Robert Smith, son of Albert Smith and Gladys Hughes, Helen is possibly Albert's brother.

Thanks,

I have a Bromhead family tree dating from the 1700s.

The original researcher was Thomas J. Bromhead (1896-1981). His daughter, Betty Webster, updated the tree in his memory and in the hope that futre generations would carry on researching and recording.
