John Deprose   26 May 1867   Cranbrook, Kent

Do you have her first or second m/c?

Is father Oscar named on either?

Oscar does seem to be pretty elusive  ::)

1852 Plomsgate Stephen Rombold Lushington

There is another Stephen Rumbold Lushington. He died 1868. Was born Wales 1776, son of James a Stephen Lushington.  His  Estate passed to William Lushington Wildman  And I have a feeling, (am on iPad so hard to check) that the Wildman part of his name was added as a condition of another significant inheritance.

Long entry in National Dictionary of Biography.   There are other Lushington entries
