[Researcher]

Looking for descendants of Samuel Duesbury (1822-1909) Brisbane, in regards to his eldest son Horace W. Duesbury (1851-1904) Artist San Francisco. I'm working on his biography.

Sorry, but I'm not a descendant nor in touch with any.

I noticed you have posted in past threads, were you doing research on Duesbury or were you helping someone? Samuel arrived in Brisbane in 1865 with his family and opened two photography studios.

 

[Researcher]

Ok thanks. It seems it was 1865 or 1866. I've not yet checked the full date for the 1866 birth.

I could say second coming because son Frank was a minister - yes yet another one in my tree.

:biggrin: Daveham9 I guess when you stated "another one in my tree" you did not mean family tree correct?

Yes, the Duesbury family is in my tree but I am remotely connected. Another member of this site who also posted at times is more closely related.

I have Horace in the 1861 census in England. No arrival for the family. Nothing more for Horace in my tree. My tree follows Frank (to Perdriau) and Lewis (to Fisher then Whiteman).

The Sydney Morning Herald - Thu 8 Oct 1936 p.20
Heard Here and There.
By Mayfair.
...
I WAS interested yesterday to meet Miss Effie Duesbury, of Killara, the great-great-granddaughter of the founder of the Crown Derby potteries, which she visited during a recent trip abroad.
Miss Duesbury not only has a link with old England, but also a link with early Australla. The descendants of the founder of the Derby potteries-her grandfather, grand mother, and their six children-came to Australla in 1864, the voyage taking five and a half months. Two of those children survive Mr. Lewis Duesbury, of Camden, and Mr. Fred Duesbury, of Brisbane. Miss Duesbury's father, the Rev. Frank Duesbury, of Sydney died in 1924.
Miss Duesbury's maternal grandfather Henry Carter Perdriau, was also one of the early settlers, and the owner of the first ferries which ran on Sydney Harbour.

The late Mr. Samuel Duesbury, who died at his residence, 107 Quay-street, North Quay, on Thursday afternoon, was well known in Brisbane since 1865, when he landed with his family and set up a photographic business in the Valley. ...
