Biographies

LOCHÉE, FRANCIS (1811-1893), lawyer, editor and banker, was born on 8 March 1811 in London, one of identical twin sons of John Lockée, barrister, and his wife Louisa, née King. He was a descendant of a Huguenot family. His great-grandfather, naturalized by an Act which received royal assent on 8 May 1780, established the Royal Military Academy, Little Chelsea, London, about 1770. After the early death of their parents the boys and an elder sister were left in the care of a guardian. It was their father's wish that the boys should enter a university and then train for a profession. Francis chose law, his brother Alfred medicine. Their vacations spent on the Continent added a mastery of French and Italian and some knowledge of Spanish to their formal classical training. In the 1830s Francis Lochée became interested in colonial affairs and particularly in the settlement at Swan River.
