CONSTANTINE PHIPPS HENVILLE

Constantine Phipps HENVILLE and Ann BROWN are my maternal 5^th Great Grandparents.

Their daughter, Mary Benedicta HENVILLE, is my 4^th Great Grandmother who married Thomas William MILLER.

CONSTANTINE PHIPPS HENVILLE

Constantine Phipps HENVILLE was born in 1807 at Chideock, Dorsetshire, England to Richard John HENVILLE & Mary SMITH.

I have the HENVILLE pedigree going back to Matthew HENVILL born c1603 in the Dorsetshire area in England.

Constantine married Ann BROWN on the 11^th February 1930 at Chideock, Dorsetshire, England (source: Dorset Marriage Bishop transcripts).

Ann BROWN was born before 25^th February 1810 (date she was baptised) in Chideock, Dorsetshire, England to William & Ann BROWN. Ann died or left sometime between 1841 (the birth of her last child) and 1846 in England when Constantine remarried.

Constantine HENVILLE remarried Mary Anne KNIGHT around the quarter of September 1846 in Bridport, Dorsetshire, England. Mary Anne was born in 1801 in Dorsetshire to George & Mary Ann KNIGHT.

The 1851 Chideock, Dorsetshire, England census has:

Constantine & Mary Anne HENVILLE came out to Australia aboard the ship "Bolton" arriving in Sydney on the 23^rd June 1853.

Constantine had brought out his three children from his marriage to Ann Brown - Mary Benedicta; Anne Brune; and Charles Brune. The fourth child, William Brune HENVILLE, had died as a baby in Chideock, Dorsetshire, England.

The ship had originated in Plymouth, England on the 22^nd February 1853.

During the journey in 1853 the "Bolton" ran aground on the north-west part of Margaret Sand on the night of the 29th January, but came off. Next morning, she ran aground again, on the north-east section and was assisted off. She had been in the Channel, where she slipped from her anchor and chain. She did not appear to have been damaged, as she wasn't taking on any water.

Passed on 5^th Mayv1853 via Cape of Good Hope

Dr Roberts - surgeon superintendent on board the "Bolton". The ship had 271 emigrants aboard.

Constantine Phipps & Mary Ann HENVILLE moved to the Braidwood area in NSW.

Braidwood is a small rural village 1 hour east of Canberra ACT, approx 3 1/2 hours south of Sydney on the East Coast of NSW, Australia.

Constantine’s various occupations are listed as - Baker, Grazier; Flour miller; and Farmer.

Constantine Phipps HENVILLE died on the 14^th October 1884 at Boro, Braidwood NSW Australia, aged 75years.

The cause of Death was Bronchitis (Source: NSW Death Reg.7288/1884 )

He is buried at Braidwood NSW, but no gravesite found as yet as not registered as being buried in Braidwood cemetery.

Mary Anne HENVILLE (nee KNIGHT) died on the 14^th July 1891 in Braidwood NSW Australia. (source: NSW Death Reg. 3877/1891)

I don't believe Constantine & Mary Anne had any children together.

Constantine & Ann HENVILLE had 4 children:

- Mary Benedicta born before 7^th Feb 1831 at Chideock, Dorsetshire, England. She is my 4^th Great Grandmother. Mary had come out to Australia with her father & step-mother.
