Samuel MAKEHAMs father was Matthew MAKEHAM [1791 - 1863] but I don't know his mother's name.
Matthew was married to Sarah by 1851 and had a son called John [born 30 Sep 1833]. I know more about Mary TWOs family as her brothers and her father was in Gaol
Mary TWO's sister [Sarah] was my grandmother x 4 and I have a photo of her taken in 1898 when she was very old.
