The Dockrill Family


  • From the 17th century to the mid-19th century, Dockrill family members lived in Great Shelford, Little Shelford, Melbourn and Stapleford, villages in the south-east of Cambridgshire.

    William Dockrill (1803 - 1892) had 10 children (by two different wives), two of whom emigrated to Australia:
  • his second son William (1830 - 1913) who emigrated in 1851 aboard the Argyle
  •  his third daughter Sophia who emigrated in 1863 aboard the Flying Cloud with husband Lewis James Eversden and their four children.
