2013 The second eldest daughter of John Charles Molteno. Caroline was an exceptionally beautiful and strongminded woman. She married a Royal Navy surgeon, Dr C F K Murray, over the initial opposition of her father. In addition to their having a large family, Caroline and her husband turned their home, Kenilworth House, into a leading focus for the family after her father’s death in 1886. Caroline involved herself in various public activities, including opposition to Britain going to war against the Boer Republics (1899-1902) and her espousal of the franchise for women at the Cape.

When her elder daughter, May, started the Chronicle of the Family in 1913, Caroline wrote her Reminiscences which give a wonderful picture of the family and the way of life on the Karoo and at the Cape generally during the 1860s. She died at Palace Court, the London home of her beloved and much admired younger brother, Percy, just a few weeks after he himself had passed away. She kept a journal at various times in her life, some of which hopefully will be transcribed. And you can read Reminiscences of the Old Cape (pdf).

Harry, like his brother, Ted, never married. Both brothers set up charitable trusts and left most of their wealth to them. In addition, Harry made several major bequests during his lifetime to universities and at least one school. Educated at Cambridge, he was musical. For many years, he and Ted had their cousin, Dr Ernest Anderson, also a bachelor, living with them. After Harry died, the Molteno Brothers Trust ran the farms and became a very large donor to various educational projects, notably the Molteno Project which concentrated on improving literacy and the teaching of English in Black schools in South Africa during the last decades of the apartheid era.

2022 There are 13 men at the beginning of this Gibbs Family Tree: John Gibbe, Henry Gibbe, Richard Gybbe, Thomas Gybbe, John Gybbe, Rev. William Gybbe, Geroge Gybbe, Walter Gybbe, Andrew Gybbe, George Gibb, Richard Gibbe, Robert Gibbe and Thomas Gibbs who are set down as the first three generations. The connection between these 13 men is conjectural. In the 1903 edition of the 'Gibbs Pedigree' there were only two conjecturally arranged generations but they embraced the same men, except that Richard and John Gibbe were not brought in, though the latter was mentioned under John the buyer of Pytte. The new arrangement follows Appendix XIII of Lord Hunsdon's 'Gibbs of Fenton'. His Chapter III must be read to appreciate the full force of the arguments for relationship between these persons and between them and the Gibbs family of Fenton, but the following short - though incomplete - statement may be useful.

It is not very likely that among these 13 men living in the contiguous parishes of Clyst St. George and Woodbury there would be any of an unrelated family of the same surname, and there is actual evidence of relationship in some cases. Thus, John Gibbe renting Pytte and John Gybbe succeeding him (first as a renter, afterwards as owner) declares them to be relations and with little doubt father and son, while George Gibb, who is known to be father of John of Pytte must also have owned Pytte and have succeeded John as his son as shown in the Chart, or perhaps as his nephew. Again, there is evidence pointing to relationship between Henry of Woodbury, William, the rector and George of Claypitt, and between the last named and John of Pytte.

The name, not having been found in the parishes concerned at a period earlier than that of the first generation suggests that the family had recently come from outside to settle there. This is consistent with the tradition that the family was an offshoot from that of Fenton in Dartington (near Totnes and under 30 miles from Clyst St. George), a tradition till recently mainly only supported by an unofficial Ordinary of Arms of about 1689 in the College of Arms which quoted the Dartington family's arms as belonging to both families, and to the actual use of those arms by members of the Clyst family from at least 1691 onwards. Now, however, that Lord Hunsdon has produced other evidence for the connection, and especially evidence that William, the rector, was some relation of that family (and if he, then all the Clyst family), little doubt remains of the truth of the tradition. The pedigree of Gibbs of Fenton, embodying Lord Hunsdon's surmise that John Gybbe of Pytte was a son of William Gibbs of Fenton who died before October, 1487, is therefore inserted before Chart 1.
In the Lay Subsidy Roll of 15 Henry VIII, quoted on p. 80 of 'Gibbs of Fenton', he appears as 'John Gybbe at Pytte asessed for his goods at 100s tax 2s.6d.' Pytte, the cradle of our Clyst St. George family, is the house, 300 yards north of the church, which remained in the family till 1790, was restored to it in 1839. John probably died before 1543, the year of the next subsidy ('Gibbs of Fenton', p.54).

Taxed 1524, 1543 and 1546; bought Peytt in Clyst St. George 1560, buried at Clyst St. George 24 May 1573.

His birth in 1510 is established in 'Gibbs of Fenton', pp. 54-5.

His purchase of Pytte is recorded as follows in Rev. Dr. G. Oliver's 'Ecclesiastical Antiquities in Devon' (pub. 1839-42), Vol. I, p. 151: 'On 1 May (2 Elizabeth) 1560 John Gybb or Gybbs of St. George's Clyst purchased of Thomas Lord Wentworth for £110 the Fee Simple of all that messuage .... called Peytt of which the said John Gybb was the tenant and occupier'. The agreement for this purchase (abstracted in 'Gibbs of Fenton', pp. 140-1) shows that the property bought was '1 messuage, 1 guarden, 40 acres of land and 2 acres of meadow'. See also entry for Rev. William Gybbe who acted for John in the agreement.

2033 Though it looks like a mistake, in two consecutive generations, a Thomas Crawley-Boevey married a Susannah Lloyd

This THOMAS, eldest surviving son of THOMAS CRAWLEY was baptized 3 May, 1680, at St. Dunstan's in the East. He succeeded Mrs. Catherine Boevey (Bovey) on her death at Flaxley Abbey, 21 January, 1726, in accordance with the will of William Boevey, proved 22 October, 1692, by which he was required to take the name Boevey, and to "write himself" Crawley alias Boevey. He was buried at Flaxley 7 February, 1741. -- from the Perverse Widow


THE ORIGINS OF THE FAMILY OF CRAWLEY-BOEVEY

Thomas Crawley was a merchant in London. He assumed the surname of Boevey, as a requirement to inherit the estate of Flaxley Abbey, given to him by the will of William Boevey, Esq. He became known as Thomas Crawley-Boevey. Until the 1800s, the eldest son inherited the estate and adopted the Crawley-Boevey surname. Younger sons and daughters used only the name Crawley.

He married Susanna Lloyd. His oldest son Thomas also married a Susanna Lloyd. So there are two generations of Thomas Crawley-Boevey and Susannah Lloyd.

Pedigree of Crawley-Boevey by A.C. Crawley-Boevey shows his birthdate as 1680.

Excerpt from "A Bedfordshire Family" by William Austin:

Thomas, eldest eldest surviving son of Thomas Crawley, was baptized 3rd May 1680, at St Dunstan's in the East. He married by licence (Vicar-General), on the 2nd February 1702, at Great St Bartholomew's, London, Susanna, daughter of John Lloyd and Susanna Hollier.

We have mentioned that· his father, Thomas Crawley was the friend of William Boevey, Esq., of Flaxley Abbey, and that two of his children, namely, David and John, were beneficiaries of William Boevey and his sister, Mrs Cornelia Bateman.

This Thomas Crawley lived to be a recipient of still greater favours from the family. The Boevey family came from Courtral in Flanders in 1573, and settled in St Dunstan's in the East. They acquired considerable wealth, and the above-named William Boevey purchased the estate of Flaxley Abbey, in the county of Gloucester, and married Catherine, daughter of John Riches.

Catherine Boevey was a famous beauty, but was still more famous for her great benevolence and numerous benefactions. She also became interesting to later generations as the subject of Sir Richard Steele's essays, wherein he alludes to the relations between the more or less fictitious character, Sir Roger de Coverley, and the "Perverse Widow" (see 'Mr CrawleyBoevey's The Perverse Widow for an account of this lady), the widow being, it is said, Calherine Boevey, the widow of William Boevey.

Mr Boevey died at the early age of thirty-five, leaving his estate and much wealth to his beautiful widow, who survived him till the 21st January 1726. Thomas Crawley was William Boevey's executor, and by the terms of Mr Boevey's will he succeeded to the estate of Flaxley Abbey upon the condition that he took the name of Boevey.

By the will of Mrs Boevey he also received a pecuniary legacy of £500, her coach-horses, etc., and books which she gave to "my kind friend Thomas Crawley-Boevey."

Thomas Crawley-Boevey was buried at Flaxley on 7th February 1741. His will was proved in the P.c.~. in February 1742 (46 Trenley). His wife predeceased him on the 17th July 1739. They had issue:-
