A Cobbold Communion
A Communion of Cobbolds This is a brief travelogue of two Cobbolds from Canada visiting England on the occasion of the 100th anniversary, and an associated gathering of the Cobbold Clan, to honour Felix Thornley Cobbold in the Ipswich Christchurch Mansion Museum on 16 October 2009. Entrance Hymn Tuesday Off we go…..13 October We, Richard T. C. (Dick) Cobbold and wife Jean (Jeannie) Cobbold (nee Potter), departed Ottawa and Toronto airports at 00dark on 13 October heading for London Heathrow airport. Philippa Burford (nee Cobbold), sister of Dick, met the arriving visitors and successfully navigated the rental car to her home in Wimbledon, accompanied by the dulcet tones of “Sheila” the GPS unit carried over by the visitors. Sheila had her own chosen path for the drive but with Dick, as driver, managing to bounce off only a few curbs with his “other-side North American driving proclivities” and following Philippa’s adroit shortcuts, Sheila’s incessant “recalculating” eventually converged at the chosen destination. At “Stonehenge” (1500 B.C. – Somewhat later) Wednesday…..A quick glass (it was past midnight by now), to bed, rise and breakfast, and it was off to Devon for Dick and Jeannie for an overnight visit with first cousin Constance Hiller (nee Cobbold, daughter of oldest of three Cobbold brothers Reynold, Robert and Temple, Dick’s father, sons all of Christian Chevallier and Olive Cobbold). Along the way the indomitable Sheila steered us through London’s SW outskirts, A3, M3, M25, M3 & A3 again etc onto the plains of Hampshire and Wiltshire, a touristy/photo stopover at Stonehenge, and on to the west of Honiton, the Colestocks home of cousin Constance and George Hiller, Stomorage by name.

A BIOGRAPHY on ELIZABETH COBBOLD January 2020
The Cobbold Family History Trust 14 Moorfields, Moorhaven, Ivybridge Devon, PL21 0XQ, UK Tel: + 44 (0) 1752 894498 www.cobboldfht.com [email protected] Patron: Lord Cobbold DL Ivry, Lady Freyberg AT LAST… A BIOGRAPHY ON ELIZABETH COBBOLD January 2020 As No. 2 in the Cobbold & Kin series the Trust has published Elizabeth Cobbold, Georgian Polymath a biography of one of the most famous Cobbolds of all time, by Adele Mallen. For those who are new to the family Elizabeth Cobbold (1765-1824) #58 on the web family tree was the second wife of ‘Big’ John Cobbold, 3rd generation brewer at The Cliff, Ipswich. John is well nicknamed ‘Big’ not only for his astute growing of the family business for some 60 years but also for his procreation of 15 children with his first wife. His second Elizabeth gave him another 7 making 22 in total! Apart from taking on 15 stepchildren and adding another 7 herself Elizabeth was a remarkable lady as readers of the biography will discover. Dr Kate Kennedy, Writer and Broadcaster, Associate Director of the Oxford Centre for Life-Writing says: This is a sensitively written and meticulously researched biography. Its great affinity with its subject shines through, bringing to life a woman who should be remembered as one of those who set the precedent for women taking an active part in the arts and sciences. Elizabeth Cobbold, contemporary of Jane Austen, proved that women could take the stage in public life, be creative and respected for it. Novelist, poet, artist and scientist, she was also known for her philanthropy.

ELIZABETH COBBOLD GEORGIAN POLYMATH – January 2020 a REVIEW
The Cobbold Family History Trust 14 Moorfields, Moorhaven, Ivybridge Devon, PL21 0XQ, UK Tel: + 44 (0) 1752 894498 www.cobboldfht.com [email protected] Patron: Lord Cobbold DL Ivry, Lady Freyberg ELIZABETH COBBOLD GEORGIAN POLYMATH – January 2020 A REVIEW Here is the first review of Elizabeth Cobbold Georgian Polymath written by Adele Mallen and reviewed by Jane Dismore. To suffer a severe head injury, and then turn the experience into a humorous poem, suggests rare qualities. In 1810, Elizabeth Cobbold, aged 45, second wife of John Cobbold, the Suffolk brewer, fell through an open cellar door in an Ipswich street, causing her family to fear for her life. Details of the operation to ascertain her injuries, carried out without anaesthetic in her parlour at Cliff House by the Orwell, were relayed to her concerned friend and protégé, the artist John Constable, while another artist hoped she would not die because ‘there are few like her, she is an original.’ Indeed she was, as this fascinating and well-researched book makes entertainingly clear. After telling a friend in verse that ‘the wound in my cranium has opened a way/For the muses bright phantoms poetic to stray’, Elizabeth Cobbold picked up once more the many creative and social strands of her life that justify her description in the book’s title, A Georgian Polymath. The energy, talent and determination of this woman, born Elizabeth Knipe in 1765, were remarkable and saw her succeed in areas generally reserved for men. A contemporary of Jane Austen, she was a poet, playwright, scientist and artist, celebrated for the art of paper cutting.

Why would I wish to base my thesis upon such an investigation? Why not examine the life of just one person? Or why not closely consider just one aspect of the colonial experience, rather than a myriad of influences that comprised colonial relations? The answer to such questions is two-fold.
