Personal Notes:
Geraldine Georgiana Mary Hervey, Marchioness of Bristol (1843–25 January 1927) was the daughter of Maj.-Gen. Hon. George Anson, who was later Commander-in-Chief, India in 1856.

On 4 March 1862, she married Frederick Hervey, Lord Jermyn (the son and heir of the 2nd Marquess of Bristol) in St. George's Church, Hanover Square, London and they later had two daughters:

Lady Katherine Adine Geraldine, Mrs. Drummond (d. 1 November 1948)
Lady Alice Adeliza (d. 27 August 1962), married Hylton Jolliffe, 3rd Baron Hylton.
Apparently while living at Ickworth she used to collect elaborately decorated fans. for this she was honoured with the freedom of the Worshipful Company of Fanmakers.

When the Marquess died in 1905, she moved into a London house with her unmarried sister-in-law, Mary Hervey.

Death
Lady Bristol died in 25 January 1927 in St George's Hospital on Hyde Park Corner after being knocked down by a motor car in Hyde Park, London and was buried in the grounds of the family home, Ickworth House, two days later.

This public tree has about 60,100 people. Every person in the tree is related by birth or marriage to at least one other person in the tree - no strays. The people in the tree come mainly from four projects.
  1. My family tree. The original project begun about 1998. ID numbers less than about 6,000
  2. Canberra and Queanbeyan Pioneers. The next 30,000 begun about 2004. Sourced almost entirely from HAGSOC's excellent 'Biographical Register of Canberra and Queanbeyan'. The project began when I decided to add siblings, spouses and parents for a relation with an entry in the Register. 12 years work.
  3. Wagga Pioneers. I moved to Wagga and thought I would extend the Queanbeyan project by adding people from Wagga Wagga & District Family History Society's 'Pioneers of Wagga Wagga and District'. About 10,300 people added over about a year.
  4. Tumut Valley Pioneers. During the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020, I decided to extend the above projects by adding pioneers of the Tumut Valley. Initial sources were Snowden's 'Pioneers of the Tumut Valley' and 'Relict of ... Lives of Pioneering Women of Tumut and District'. Excellent references published by Tumut Family History Group. I've also added material from newspapers of the time - especially, death records, obituaries and weddings from 'Tumut and Adelong Times'. This project is in its early stage and might take a few years. I plan to extend to the upper Monaro (Adaminaby, Kiandra, Cooma, Jindabyne).
I upload new information to this website about every 3 months. My motivation for these projects is to provide public information for people seeking to trace ancestors and what became of them. Much of the information I provide can be difficult to find.
If you find errors - anything incorrect (dates, places, wrong parents, wrong children), and you have evidence, I would love to fix them. Or, if you have information that would extend my projects, do not hestiate to contact me on the email link below. I do not publish information on living people - which means I'm not much interested in people born after about 1920, and I usually distrust material from before about 1770 without extremely good sources.
