thank you for your reply, I have some relations that came from there, although for years we have been under the impression it was called Mellick, and not Meelick.

The families are: Patrick Moloney c 1798 and his wife Catherine Walsh  1801

They had 8 chn all born in Meelick and were married 1 May 1815

London and Middlesex / Re: Eighteenth century coffee houses
« on: Saturday 13 November 10 19:46 GMT (UK)  »
Thanks everybody.
Sadly, I seem to have made a mistake in identifying the Samuel Coppock who is my ancestor. His wife died in 1774, according to several of the London papers of the time - my man died about 1772 but his widow survived until at least 1799 and seems to have died 1807. hence the Samuel Coppock ex Grecian coffee house is not mine Mary

London and Middlesex / Eighteenth century coffee houses
« on: Thursday 11 November 10 19:51 GMT (UK)  »
Would anyone be familiar with eighteenth century coffee houses in London?
  I have found that an "ancestor?" Samuel Coppock was master of the Grecian coffee house . In his 1778 will he mentions the wife of Henry Timbrell of Old Slaughters coffee house.
  I need to confirm I have the right Samuel Coppock.
My questions are - would Samuel Coppock have been described as a gentleman after he sold the Grecian coffee house?
Would a coffee house master be known as a vintner?

I am fascinated by John Ruck cheesemonger, provision merchant, gentleman - 3 wives, numerous children, some of whom ended up in Australia. When he died he left  a long will [very hard to read] but apparently he had 2 sisters - names indecipherable

Hi Alan,
Thank you for a succinct summary of the movements of the brothers Duvauchelle. Could I ask you, please, for any additional information you have on their departure from Akaroa.

Thanks Jorose
It was the 1836 marriage witness J A Duvauchelle that led to my search for Duvauchelles.
Then as I searched on I found references to Mr or Mons Duvauchelle in paperspast and NSW shipping - then I found there was more than one man of that name, hence my question to this forum

New Zealand Completed Requests / Duvauchelle
« on: Saturday 20 October 07 09:58 BST (UK)  »
Hello,
I am interested in the brothers Duvauchelle. I understand there were three brothers, all born in France between 1810 and 1820. I am confused as to their names - I think they were Jules , Louis and Edouard. I am not certain of their occupation, though Jules is described as a surveyor, who went to New Zealand from New South Wales as a surveyor. I found a reference which indicated Louis joined him at the French settlement at Akaroa. It  seems that Edouard may have also joined his brother off a whaling ship. It seems that the Duvauchelles did not settle in New Zealand, leaving about 1845.
Can anyone help me identify the movements of these men? Or give me any further information on them, please?
Mary
