Hi Phil,
I am researching the Hepburn's of London and have amassed a substantial database of people, mostly centered on Clerkenwell and Islington but with Limehouse & Guildford connections. This includes your John Frankland and his children/grandchildren many of whom include Frankland in their names. It is in Excel format but I am happy to share it with you off list.
It is surprising how large the Hepburn clan is in London and because of the recurring themes and a regular naming pattern, of John, William and Henry, I am convinced that they have some common ancestry but I haven't established any obvious links to your John William. There is also another person actively searching; we discovered each other through a common gg grandfather John Hepburn, who had sons William, Charles and Henry.
You don't say where your John William was born but there are Hepburn's in a place called Frankland, Co Durham (William Hepburn,1871 census, b1820/21 in Frankland Colliery Houses Frankland Framwellgate). Your branch may have a connection, bearing in mind the constant use of the name Frankland through the generations.

Hi Phil
Welcome to Rootschat
You have posted on the London and Middlesex resources board. You need to post requests on either a county main board or the lookup board (not in lookup offers either).
Each county has these 4 main boards as well as one for completed requests.
I will move your request to the main London and Middlesex board.
Regards
Valda

Hello Phil,
I have been helping a member at our family history assoc (Max)who's G,G,G,Grandfather is William Henry Hepburn b abt 1784 Westminster, Middlesex, his wife was Sally Ann.
William died 12 Dec 1855 12 Bayst Terrace, Bethnal Green, London and Sally 8 Jun 1842 St Edmund the King, City of London, England.
We have found 7 children, one being a Convict Henry James Hepburn who was sent to Tasmania, Max descends from this line. Most of the family were Law Stationers
Max's grandfather was John Frankland Herbert Hepburn born 1884 at Yarram, Victoria, Australia
There ia another lady Rosemary researching this family in Australia.
Would like to hear form you, maybe we can share some information.
Regards Snowflake

Hi all, this is my first post so I hope I get this right!
It appears I am also a descendant of William Henry Hepburn. His son, Henry James Hepburn who was sent to Tasmania as a convict, had an illegitimate child whilst he was married to his first wife. This child, Henry George Hepburn (born 1851) was always known by his stepfathers name Thompson. So I can help anyone wanting details of the convict side of things! I would love more details on William Hepburn though - I only have his parents names John and Mary.
Cheers,
crumpet
