Joseph Francis (1829 - 1922) the first son, took Orders and later in life became Rector of Iffley, Oxfordshire.
He had nine children, one of whom, Frank, became Bishop of Grahamstown, South Africa, and finally Archbishop of South Africa. Frank, whom I met a number of times at Aunt Janey’s, was badly deformed and had spent most of his younger years in irons. He was one of the most charming and saintly men I have ever met.
