    Histories
    Samuel and Jane Charlotte Brandon (nee Wooster)
    Samuel and Jane Charlotte Brandon (nee Wooster)
    From Rev. Brian Brandon:

    Samuel Brandon, my great-great grandfather, the oldest of Richard and Henrietta's children, was born in 1800 at Rotherhithe. He must have grown up and probably worked on the market gardens at Rotherhithe. He is also named as a valuer. Samuel's grandson, Ted, said that he remembers his father saying "they used to have hundred's of Irish workmen on the gardens."

    He married Jane Charlotte Wooster on the 15th of August 1935 at Holy Trinity Church, Newington. They had four children, born in Rotherhithe, Samuel, Jane, Richard and Liversidge. We know that in 1843 Samuel was on the market garden at Rotherhithe. His gardens consisted of a number of paddocks, near Deptford Lower Road, and bounded by Paradise Row and Prospect Place. There was a house on the market garden at 2 Paradise Row, where they lived. Adjoining his property on the Deptford Lower Road were further paddocks in pasture belonging to William, Samuel's younger brother.

    The 1851 census shows both brothers still in the area. At this time Samuel is recorded as having 50 acres and 30 labourers on his property. As well as Samuel and Jane at home, there were Richard (8yrs) and Liversidge (1yr), and two nieces, Amy (12yrs) and Sarah (10yrs). There is no mention of the oldest children Samuel, and Jane.

    At some stage he moved to Marlow, a posh place on the Thames, and called his house there, `Suffolk Lodge' a reference to their belief that they were descended from the famous Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk. He moved there because he was on the staff of the royal household at Windsor.
