Biographies

MANIFOLD FAMILY: THOMAS (1809-1875), JOHN (1811-1877) and PETER (1817-1885), were the fourth, fifth and sixth sons of William Manifold and Mary, née Barnes, of Courthouse Farm, Bromborough, Cheshire, England. When the family decided to emigrate to Van Diemen's Land, Thomas was sent ahead. He arrived in Hobart Town on 23 January 1828 with £1500 and a letter of recommendation from the Colonial Office. On condition that he appoint a respectable free overseer, he obtained 1280 acres (518 ha) on the west bank of the Tamar River. John and Peter, with their parents and three sisters, arrived on 8 July 1831. Land grants had then finished, but William bought ninety acres (36 ha) next to his son's land, and on the combined properties the family built Kelso House.
