On 26 March 1884 my 2nd cousin 1 x removed, John Frederick Leopold Kelly, was born in Clerkenwell, London, the eldest son of John Andrew and Georgiana (nee Tyler).  He later became an actor, using the stage name Jack Leopold, and appeared in minor roles in West End shows during the 1930s.  It remains a mystery to me why he and other members of his extended family used the name Leopold, either as a surname or middle name.

I am also descended from Christina Tweedie down through her son Thomas and then on to his daughter Mary Christina Rae ..... to my mother.
It's lovely to find family members.

Philogus Collett was my 10th great Grandfather. My mother was the last Collett in our side of the family. My Grandfather Harry was born and raised in Suffolk but moved to Norfolk when he married. He died in 1970
