The Fripp and Pocock families of Bristol, UK

Notes

John Stuart Ellis (De Vesian)

NOTE: The De Vesian family had a connection to the Fripp family, but any relationship has not yet been discovered. A grandson of Paul Fripp was named Vesian, and Fripp paintings were in the posession of the De Vesian family.

The family name was originally Ellis, but the De Vesian name was added to the family surname between 1881-1891. The reason is presently unknown, but could be an ancestral name of John's mother, Ellen Jane Sinnett, who was born in Hamburg, Germany, although to English parents.

In 1907, John Stuart De Vesian became one of 3 directors of "L G Mouchel & Partners Limited". The company was formed by Louis Gustave Mouchel in 1907, when he learned he was dying of cancer. Louis had spent 11 years building his construction business in th UK, and had become a major force. His solicitor was a brother of John S De Vesian (probably Roland).
