1251
Whether Eleanor is the daughter of this William is uncertain. There is a good chance that Mabel, William's wife, had died in 1683 but we have no sign of another marriage for William.
Eleanor could be the child of William, 1669, but he had not married by that time either. 
MEABOURNE, Eleanor (I5764)
 
1252
Whether this James did live to 1687 and is the one who married Helen Ripplay may be doubted as he does not feature in the Hearth Tax. There is no sign of them having had children, and, of course he may have lived with one of his brothers (Thomas most likely) and worked for him. 
MEWBOURNE, James (I4581)
 
1253
Who his mother was is uncertain. Could have been one of several of Tulip's daughters. He has been attached to Bridget merely to add him into the tree. 
MEWBURN, Joseph (I2981)
 
1254
Will dated 28 Jul 1760 (from Ontario) making daughter Elizabeth Mewburn principal heir with small bequest to daughters Mary and Jane. 
CLARKE, Francis (I5143)
 
1255
William and his family are known only from three wills - his own, one presumed to be for his wife (named similalry in his will) and a third from a presumed daughter also mentioned in the earlier wills.
Since some children are apparently under age (21) at the time of his will we can make a rough judgement about when the first one might have been born, and then come up with an approximation for William's own birth.

COULSON, William (I5528)
 
1257
William is known from the birth of his sons Thomas and John. There is no certainty that the 1630 burial is for him, but it is plausible.

There is however a 1630 will that seems to deal with people in this bit of tree. However, William calls himself Mowbray in this will. There is work that suggests that the name for some of these Plawsworth people changed back again to Mowbray a century and more later but that claim has not been pursued since this is a Mewburn dead-end in any case. 
MEEBURN, William (I4208)
 
1258
William seems to have actively altered his name to Newburn - only 2 children are registered as Mewburn and they all use the Newburn spelling in later life. 
MEWBURN, William Richardson (I1309)
 
1259
William signed up for the AIF on the 19th November 1917, joining the Army Veterinary Corps in the Anzac Mounted Division. He was a farmer; gave father George as next of kin with George's address as Koonwarra, Leongatha, Gippsland, Victoria. The medical report described him as 5ft 10 1/2 inches tall; 140 pounds; blue eyes and black hair. CoE.
Private Mewburn was sent to Egypt, arriving at Suez on the Darwin on 7.6.18. He returned from Port Said aboard the Dorset on 29.4.19, having been invalided out. He had been promoted to Driver but reverted to Trooper, being apparently unfit to drive. He was discharged at Melbourne on 26.6.19, the reason being T.P.E (?).
On arrival back his address was 104 Moreland Road, Brunswick East. In November 1922 he applied for a grant under War Services Homes Act. Also arounf that date he recieved the Victory Medal, the British War medal and the 1914/15 Star. By this time he seems to have been working for the Tramway Board. 
MEWBURN, William Carlisle (I5791)
 
1260
William was Curate at Gloxhall, Lincolnshire when he baptised Emma in 1842. He baptised Arthur and Edith on the same day in the parish of Tiverton of Withley Chapple, where they were living at West Bradley. 
TOMS, Reverend William (I4054)
 
1261
William's first marriage in 1790 describes him as being a 'gentleman' and 21, i.e. born in 1769. However that could mean 'over 21' and so an earlier birth. The only possible burial record we have from Stockton provides no specific identification but gives an age that equates to a birth in 1758. There is a birth of a William in that year at Stockton to a William and his wife from 1753, Mary Mason.

1276 Birth has not been established. The only Hertfordshire baptism is in 1776 at St Albans, parents (a little earlier than expected) to a William and Margaret.
Will suggests he was a significant property owner though 1841 census gives him as an agricultural labourer.

1281 Cannot be sure about John’s parentage, There were four John’s born between 1720 and 1760 in Perth. The baptism on 17 Apr 1731 with Mungo and Margaret Steuart is promising as Mungo is a merchant, The one on 04 Aug 1728 to John and Jean Corrie also would provide a good start in life as that John is “first Doctor of Grammar School”.
There were generations of the John Campbell company selling drinks in Perth and Crieff.

1292 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stewart Ranken Douglas FRS (12 February 1871,[1] Caterham – 20 January 1936) was a British pathologist, bacteriologist and immunologist.
After education at Haileybury College, Douglas studied medicine at St Bartholomew's Hospital and received there in 1896 M.R.C.S., L.R.C.P. (Lond.). He joined the Indian Medical Service on 28 January 1898 with the rank of second-lieutenant. All Indian Medical Service officers at that time were required to complete a course in pathology at Netley Hospital under Dr (later Sir) Almroth Wright. In 1899 Wright requested that Douglas accompany him to India for the investigative research of the first Plague Commission. On 31 March 1899 Douglas and H. J. Walton (at that time a lieutenant) were sent to investigate plague in the Garhwal District and other areas of the Kumaon Division of the United Provinces of Agra and Oudh.[2] Their investigation lasted about 5 months, during which Douglas suffered from recurring episodes of malaria. After completing this investigation, Douglas was sent in 1900 to China as part of the medical staff for the Gaselee Expedition in connection with the Boxer Rebellion. In China he was promoted to the rank of captain on 28 January 1901. However, in China he became infected with amoebic dysentery and developed a liver abscess. (From 1901 to the end of his life he suffered serious health problems.) He was given a medical discharge from the Indian Medical Service. Douglas returned to the UK and joined Almroth Wright at St Mary's Hospital to do research on vaccine therapy. For a pension from the Indian Medical Service, Douglas was put on temporary half pay on 15 September 1905 and was put on permanent half pay on 15 September 1907. In 1909 he was appointed a lecturer at St Mary's Hospital Medical School.[1]
When World War I started, the supply of peptones from Germany was cut off. Peptones were used by British bacteriologists in nutrient media for growing Salmonella typhi as part of the programme for preparing vaccines against typhoid fever. Within a few days, Douglas produced a new and superior peptone medium for bacterial culture. He joined Wright in Boulogne-sur-Mer but developed sciatica and returned to the UK for treatment. In 1915 he returned to work at St Mary's on vaccines against typhoid and other bacterial infections. Douglas also did research on dysentery. In 1916 he worked in St Mary Hospital's special wards for wounded soldiers and developed a successful method of autologous skin-grafting.
In 1921 Douglas was appointed director of the Department of Bacteriology and Experimental Pathology in the National Institute for Medical Research under the direction of Sir Henry Dale at Mount Vernon Hospital in Hampstead and also deputy director for the NIMR under the director Dale.[3] As head of his department, Douglas organised the research of Laidlaw, Dobell, William E. Gye (who worked on the Rous sarcoma virus), Ian A. Galloway (who worked on foot-and-mouth disease) and other researchers. Much of the research dealt with immunology and virology, especially viruses that cause dysentery. Douglas worked on the extraction of bacteria by acetone. This extraction method led to Georges Dreyer's 'diaplyte'[4] and Dreyer's synthetic medium for the growth of tubercle bacilli; Dreyer's advances lead to a more effective form of tuberculin skin test.[5]
It was a newspaper report suggesting that German secret agents had infiltrated the London Underground in order to carry out experiments with bacteria that prompted the British government to seek expert advice on the potential of biological warfare from a small number of civilian scientists consulted in secret. The most influential were Professor John Ledingham, Director of the Lister Institute; the epidemiologist and bacteriologist Professor William Topley of the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine; and Captain Stewart Ranken Douglas, Deputy Director of the National Institute for Medical Research. Their 1934 'Memorandum on Bacteriological Warfare' became a benchmark for the deliberations of the Committee of Imperial Defence's Sub-Committee on Bacteriological Warfare.[6]
In Kensington in 1920 Douglas married Frances Miriam Clare Nias née Dayrell. She was born in 1872 and married in 1896 the physician Joseph Baldwin Nias (1856–1919), whose father was Admiral Sir Joseph Nias (1793–1879). By his marriage, S. R. Douglas acquired a step-daughter.

1300 In Hertfordshire there are two possible baptisms for Mary:
11 May 1739 at Rickmansworth to Henry and Sarah
13 Dec 1742 at Watford also to Henry and Sarah.
There is only one marriage in FamilySearch for a Henry Wankford - at Abbots Langley, Herts 18 Feb 1741. A Wakeford marriage in 09 Oct 1739 is a little early for the 1939 baptism and was in Sussex.
The original record for the 1939 baptism would need to be examined to determine whether the transcript is accurate. Meanwhile the 1741 marriage and 1742 birth seem more likely.
A likely death date of 1833 follows from a death duties register entry for a Mary at Rickmansworth with Eleanor as executor. 
WANKFORD, Mary (I5593)
