    481 A musician, a pianist and an excellent singer Taylor, Mary (I1091)
     
    482 A remarkable Scottish entrepreneur who was an outstanding example of Victorians who built up great businesses from nothing, who then entered politics (Sir Donald became a Liberal M.P. for a Scottish seat in the late 19th century), and who also spread their activities, commercial as well as diplomatic, internationally. Sir Donald founded what became the Union Castle shipping line which ran the mail boat service between England and South Africa.

    A friend of the Cape Prime Minister, John Charles Molteno, he became his brother-in-law when Percy Molteno married Sir Donald’s daughter, Bessie, although in point of fact Sir John had died the year before this marriage. Sir Donald was a friend of the great Liberal leader, Gladstone, but broke with him politically over the question of Home Rule for Ireland. He bought three estates in the Scottish Highlands, including Glen Lyon which he left to his daughter, Bessie Molteno. He also used his great wealth to build up a major collection of Turner paintings, from which his descendants have continued to benefit for four generations.

    484 A violin prodigy, Molteno (1859–1866) was born in St. Kilda and appears to have begun giving concerts in Melbourne in 1865. He went on to perform in Sydney, Geelong and Ballarat before heading to South Australia in August 1866. Soon afterwards, ‘having that delicate and sensitive constitution which so often accompanies extraordinary talents prematurely developed’, he was taken ill with what newspaper reports described as low fever. He died at Norwood in early September. Molteno, Frederick John (I3388)

    486 Abraham Gibbs, Esq., of Palermo, merchant. Died 15 July 1816 at Palermo and buried there.

    In business in Italy and Sicily from 1775 till he died; at Leghorn at least till 1788; later at Palermo where he traded under the style of Gibbs & Co., with a branch at Naples. He was Banker to the Court of the Two Sicilies at Naples, Consul at Palermo for the U.S. of America, Paymaster to the British Forces in the Mediterranean. A friend of Admiral Lord Nelson and agent for the management of his estates at Bronte, Sicily, and after his death to his brother and successor, Earl Nelson, D.D. A letter from Lord Nelson to Abraham which is preserved in the Aldenham collection of Family letters, is printed in 'Antony & Dorothea Gibbs' by J.A. Gibbs and there are more letters from Nelson to him in published collections of Nelson's letters and many references to him in letters from Nelson to others (see Additions of 1927 'Antony & Dorothea Gibbs' by J.A. Gibbs). Abraham died by suicide in his house in Palermo, and his firm, which had hitherto prospered well, was liquidated by his nephew and partner, William H. Gibbs, Portrait, see 'Antony & Dorothea Gibbs' by J.A. Gibbs.

    487 Accident Seibertz, Katharina Franziska (I2650)
     
    488 According to the old editions he was Ensign 97th Regiment of Foot, 14 April 1780; Lieut. 15 June 1781; Lieut. 77th Foot, 25 January 1791; and died in Jamaica unmarried in 1793. A note in the Aldenham Family letters (Vol. I, 16) says he was shot dead at the mouth of a cannon supposed unloaded. The evidence is missing for the dates 1791 and 1793 and they are incompatible with a deed of 25 June 1789 by which George's half-uncle, George Abraham Gibbs, and Antony, son of the latter, sell some property in Topsham as trustees of the marriage settlement of George's mother, and state that her 'only children' are 'Elizabeth, spinster, John and William mariners, Abraham and Lyle merchants, and Thomas, mariner'. George is mentioned in his mother's will dated 29 October 1778. Gibbs, George Lieut. (I3079)
     
    489 According to the story handed down through the family, Gasparo was born in Venice, second son of the Marquis Grimani of the noble and ancient Grimani family. There are two books which contain versions of his flight from Venice, both written some time after his death by his descendants. Research has however failed to confirm this, and other documents suggest that he came instead from Bologna.

    It seems Gasparo had intended to become a priest and studied in Rome, but fell foul of the Church for reasons unknown and fled from Italy (about 1755). In a letter to the Pope (about 1779) he pleads for reconciliation.

    Gasparo married twice. His first wife was Antonia Fabbri, daughter of ... Fabbri of Lyon. They were living in London in 1769, when Gasparo was imprisoned for an unpaid debt of £17 which he claimed he did not owe, and in 1773, when he and Antonia were godparents at an Italian christening. They also lived in Paris, from about 1774. Gasparo taught physics as well as languages. They had two children: a son, Guglielmo or William (b. about 1759), and a daughter, Maria Rosalba (born Livorno 27 June 1763), said to have been kidnapped in Paris and never found. Antonia is said to have fallen ill shortly after this and died in Paris (about 1776). After this Gasparo travelled a lot, for a while making a living from exhibiting a model of Rome he had made. This 'plan-relief' still exists and is at the Museum of National Antiquities of Sainte-Germain-en-Laye near Paris, but is not on display.

    491 Activities
    My passion is campaigning on climate change which is the issue which will determine the quality of life of our children and grandchildren, and indeed the future of the planet as a habitable and wonderful place.

    I am also researching and writing the story of the Molteno, Murray and related families whose members, starting from Milan in the middle of the 18th century, spread to England and Scotland, South Africa and Kenya, Hawaii in the Pacific, Australia and New Zealand, and the United States. What happened to these families across the past 8 generations holds up a fascinating mirror to the extraordinary changes the world has gone through since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.

    What I love most, apart from friends, is the English countryside – walking in it, lunching in its pubs, just being there; it is what brings me peace of mind.

    Other memorable activities and moments over past 50 years
    The excitement of living in Zambia, and being part of the process, in the early years of its independence when optimism about creating a better world still reigned!
    Two months in solitary confinement (apart from the interrogations) spent in Mukobeko Maximum Security Prison, which gave me a lifelong conviction about the inhumanity of all incarceration.
    The friendships, energy and togetherness that came during the time when, as Chair of the Wandsworth Association of School Parents, we campaigned locally to save our state schools in Inner London.
    The long slog over quarter of a century when Zed Books tried to give effective voice to the courageous and free-spirited social campaigners and engaged intellectuals who, against enormous odds throughout the ‘developing’ world, struggled to make their countries more democratic, more confident and independent, less poor, and with hope and strategies for a better future.

    Philosophical comments
    My years at Bishops were not the best time of my life. My hopelessness at all sports didn’t help build my confidence! But the last two years at College were wonderful intellectually. And I took away from the school some lifelong friends; the knowledge that one must never be intimidated; the wonderful diversionary power of humour; as well as some values that I hope have infused the way I have tried to live my life. At the risk of sounding pompous, we live in this world to enjoy it; to understand it; and to make it a better place for all of us.

    495 Admiral Sir Richard Hussey Bickerton, 2nd Baronet, KCB, (11 October 1759 – 9 February 1832) was a British naval officer. He was born in Southampton, the son of Vice-admiral Sir Richard Bickerton and first served aboard HMS Medway in June 1774, in the Mediterranean. His first command came in March 1779 when he was given HM Sloop Swallow as a reward for his part in an engagement with a much larger opponent. Bickerton later joined Rodney's squadron in the West Indies where he took part in the capture of Sint Eustatius in 1781. Making post captain on 8 February 1781, he took temporary command of HMS Invincible and fought in her at the Battle of Fort Royal on 29 April 1781.

    497 After an apprenticeship in a Spanish business in Exeter he was from 1778 to 1789 a merchant there exporting woollen cloth to Spain and elsewhere; also from 1785 to 1789 a partner in a firm styled Gibbs Granger & Banfill, working a cloth factory at Exwick in the outskirts of Exeter. His father financed him and was also in the Exwick partnership. He was a member 1778 - 1789 of the Incorporation of Tuckers Hall, Exeter; head warden 1782, master 1783.

    Bankrupt in 1789 (alike with his father), he went to Madrid and for the next 18 years was engaged in business which centred in Spain. Mainly working as agent for British manufacturers he was at times (from 1783) also exporting Spanish produce as partner in a firm at Malaga styled Juan Pomar Gibbs y Compania. Driven out of Spain by war in 1797 he conducted his business from 1798 to 1801 in Lisbon, but in 1802 became regularly established in Cadiz as a merchant there, till war again forced him away. His last visit to Spain was in 1807.

    In 1808 he became one of the Commissioners in London for dealing with Portuguese property sent to England in the war, and in September that year founded, in partnership with his son George Henry, the firm of Antony Gibbs & Son, London, with a branch in Cadiz. The firm became Antony Gibbs & Sons in 1813 on admission of his second son William to the partnership.

    He was author of a pamphlet signed "A Merchant," An Appeal to Common Sense on the Bullion Question, published 1810.

    After his marriage he and his wife lived in Exeter 1784-6, at Exwick House 1786-9, in Madrid 1789-92. From 1792 to 1808 their home was in Exeter or its neighbourhood (at Cowley 1803-8), but in that period he made ten trips to the Peninsula of an average duration of 12 months each. The family moved to London in 1808 and lived in Great Russell Street, Bloomsbury, 1808-9; Denmark Hill, Camberwell, 1809-10; Dulwich Common, 1810-12; 2 Powis Place in the parish of St George the Martyr, Bloomsbury, 1812 onwards.
