    Other Events:

    • Occupation: Solicitor

    Notes:

    He was Coroner of the county of Northampton for 55 years, and High Steward of the Manor & Borough of Brackley until he retired in 1858.
    He was elected a Burgess in 1858 and in the following year Alderman and subsequently Mayor of Brackley.

    Charles Newton Weston (Robert's great grandson) wrote in his book (relevant chapter in Documents) that he visited Brackley in 1936. He saw a gravestone 'Sacred to the memory of Mary, the beloved wife of Robert Weston of this town, Solicitor, who died on 6th day of January 1876 and of Robert Weston who died on 14th December 1889 aged 64 years.'
    This could not have been the grave of his great grandmother since she died in 1844. Robert's second wife Maria died in 1889. And Robert himself died in 1872. So this gravestone is problematical - could there have been two solicitors in Brackley called Robert Weston?

    Other Events:

    • Occupation: Accountant - Sergeant, A Battery, Royal Artillary.

    Notes:

    In his book (see Documents), Charles Newton Weston (his grandson) says due to financial difficulties John could not go to public school, but was sent to Canada at an early age where the family had some landed interests. When he came home he decided there were no prospects for him in England and enlisted in a regiment to proceed to India. His father begged him to reconsider and offered to buy him out but he refused to consider any change of plans.
    Although Newton (as he was known in the family) got several facts wrong, this sounds like a likely scenario. It would explain why I can't find him in the 1841 census, and his disenchantment with England might be tied in with his father's impending marriage to a much younger woman. The landed interests in Canada are interesting - Edward, John's elder brother, ended up in America.

    In India he was attached to the Royal Horse artillery and served in the Madras Presidency.

    Sources for his passage to India are

    LDS Film Reference L/MIL/9/102
    IOR Reference 1835691
    Source Name Embarkation Lists, EIC Army Recruits

    These were found on the FIBIS site. He is given as 22 years old in 1848 which doesn't quite match up. He is described as a farmer from Northampton, recruited as a gunner in London.

    He retired from the army as a Sergeant Major in 1860, and took up service in the Nizam's Public Works Department - as an accountant - until he died in 1878.

    Newton also says 'My grandfather arrived in India 1856 just before the Mutiny in 1857. Married shortly after he arrived to an anglo indian girl Mary Anne Maine - an old anglo indian family from the Central Provinces.'
    He got the date of arrival in India wrong, but the information on Mary is likely correct.
    Also the family was in Kamptee when Newton's father was born in 1862. 'Later the regiment was stationed at Jalna and then at Secunderabad where the family stayed. When his period of service in the army was completed his Commanding Officer strongly recommended him for a commision in HEH the Nizam's forces, and he stayed there the remains of his active life.'

    NB He could havs enlited for 12 years in 1847. See this site

    This is for the Brotish Army, rather than the East India Company Army, but no doubt, to get recruits, they would have introduced the same short term enlistments.

    John married Mary Anne Maine on 20 Oct 1853 in Jaulnah, India. Mary (daughter of Samuel Maine and Rosannah da Silva) was born on 25 Mar 1833 in Trichinopoly, Madras, India; was christened on 1 Jul 1833 in Trichinopoly, Madras, India. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Other Events:

    • Occupation: Land Surveyor in 1851 census
    • Occupation: Station Agent in 1861 census

    Notes:

    Charles Newton Weston (Robert's great grandson) wrote in his book (relevant chapter in Documents) that he visited Brackley in 1936. He saw a gravestone 'Sacred to the memory of Mary, the beloved wife of Robert Weston of this town, Solicitor, who died on 6th day of January 1876 and of Robert Weston who died on 14th December 1889 aged 64 years.'
    This could not have been the grave of his great grandmother since she died in 1844. Robert's second wife Maria died in 1889. And Robert himself died in 1872. So this gravestone is problematical - could there have been two solicitors in Brackley called Robert Weston? Or perhaps Newton got his dates wrong.
    Note that THIS Robert would have been 64 in 1889, so he could be the one buried here.


    Occupation:
    The term Station Agent became Station Master somewhere around this time on some railways

    Notes:

    In the 1871 census he describes his occupation as "Solicitor & Occupying 230 Chasses(?) of land Employing 6 men & 3 boys"

    The only one of the Weston family still living in Brackley in 1881. Of course the sisters might still be there under married names.
    Widowed by 1881. He lived in the High Street, in Brackley St Peter and was the head of household. Two servants and a relative lived with him, but no children at that time. However the relative, Annie Maria Allen, wife of Roland Allen, is the right age to be a daughter, though she was born in Towcester.

    Look for an Annie Maria Weston born about 1847 in Towcester, parents Arthur and Mary. She would need to have left home before 1871, since she wasn't there for that census.

    Notes:

    The 1881 census entry seems likely as she starts on her career - though the Turks have classified her as a servant, which would be mortifying for a governess. The 1891 census in Gloucestershire has her as a visitor of the right age.
