Alexander Victor Carpendale

Birth: 1837, in Wincanton, Somerset, England

Father: William Carpendale

Mother: Emma (Coulson) Carpendale

Married: Jessie Ann Turner

Children: Death: 20th November 1877, in Grantham, Queensland, Australia

Buried: 21st November 1877, in the Drayton & Toowoomba Cemetery, Toowoomba, Queensland, Australia. Section CE 7-12, block 9, allotment 28. Burial number A1709.

Notes: Alex emigrated to Australia in 1856, on the "Lord Burleigh" from London. His name ("Mr. Alex V. Carpendale") is found on the passenger list of the Lord Burleigh when it docked in Auckland on August 8 1856.

There is some confusion on the man's name. The Ancestral file and the passenger record agree that he is Alexander Victor, while Kathleen's journal has him as Victor Alexander, and the cemetery records have him as Albert Victor!
The cemetery records give the exact death and burial dates (corresponding with Kathleen's death date), and give his age as 40, confirming the birth date from the AF. The cemetery records list his religion as Church of England.

An arm of aid to the weary,
A friendly hand to the friendless,

They may be nothing, but they are all.

Obituary:

OBITUARY

VICE-ADMIRAL SIR C. D.
CARPENDALE

Controller of British Broadcasting
Company


   Vice-Admiral Sir Charles Douglas Carpendale, C.B., who died on Thursday at the age of 93, served in the Royal Navy from 1887 to 1923. Then from 1923 he became associated with broadcasting.
   Only a year previously leading British wireless manufacturers had combined to start the British Broadcasting Company with a regular service, and with about 20,000 licences. Carpendale became controller, and was directly concerned in the phenomenal growth of the new organization. He continued in office when the company's licence expired in December 1926, and the British Broadcasting Corporation was established to maintain the service as a national trust under Government control. Within 12 years of his introduction to broadcasting the number of licences had grown to seven million and the annual income of the B.B.C. to over £2M. The internal economy of the service owed a great deal to the ripe judgement, knowledge of men and affairs, and popular personality of its controller.
   Carpendale, like Sir John Reith, was a son of the manse. His father was the Rev. William Henry Carpendale. He was born on October 18, 1874, and entered Britannia as a naval cadet in January, 1887.
   After the war broke out he was appointed in command of H.M.S. Donegal. This cruiser was one of the West African squadron under Admiral de Robeck until November, 1914, when she was ordered to join the Grand Fleet, which she did in Januaray, 1915, forming part of the Seventh Cruiser Squadron under Admiral A. W. Waymouth, based in Cromarty. In the following August Carpendale became flag captain to Admiral Sir Lewis Bayly at Queenstown, and subsequently commodore in Northern Ireland. He was made C.B. in 1918. After the Armistice he took command of the battleship Benbow, until 1921, in which year he was appointed an aide-de-camp to the King, until his promotion to rear-admiral on July 6, 1921.
   When Carpendale retired from the Navy in 1923 he came in contact with Mr. J. C. W. Reith of the B.B.C., who asked him to become his deputy with the title of controller, a post he held until his retirement in 1938, with latterly a change in title to Deputy Director General. It is recorded that Carpendale had understandable qualms about accepting service in an entirely unfamiliar field. He soon, however, showed his capacity for working with a dynamic managing director and an inexperienced and potentially temperamental staff. On one hand in 1929 he proved an understanding go-between for Sir John Reith in his difficulties with the then chairman of the B.B.C. Board of Governors. On the other he proved invaluable as a steadying factor, with common senseand his feet on the ground, in dealing with an enthusiastic and rapidly expanding staff. Throughout his service he was mainly concerned with administration, but his unofficial influence on programmes was salutarily that of an ordinary though privileged listener ; and in emergencies like the General Strike of 1926 he was always ready and welcome to lend a hand in the studio.
   Carpendale, in the circumstances of his office and the times, had to be boot-faced. In cricket terms he was the long stop both to Sir John Reith above him and to the often very wild bowling from below him. This led to the famous quarter-deck manner (doubtless natural to him), belied as often as not by an ultimate twinkle in his eye and dissolving in a most charming smile. The staff respected and progressively liked him and felt absolute confidence in his integrity, and the women staff adored him. He was well known to them through staff social activities in which he was untiring - dances, sports, swimming, and taking part in plays like Tilly of Bloomsbury.
   In March, 1925, he was elected first chairman of the newly formed Union Internationale de Radiophonie and he did most valuable work from the British as well as B.B.C. point of view in the following 15 years when despite the jealousies and strains of an international body he was reelected annually. His geniality and real friendliness and his wisdom in conference must certainly have contributed to the good will between the B.B.C. and German broadcasters which had its effect in the war years. Carpendale retired in June, 1938 four years after the normal retiring age. But the war saw him working at the Ministry of Information in liason with the Air Ministry and the B.B.C.
   An expert skier, Carpendale was a winter sports enthusiast, and his recreations included riding, mountaineering, and other outdoor sports. He was created K.C.B. in the Birthday honours list in 1932. He married in 1907 Christina, eldest daughter of the late Mr. J. S. Strange, and had one son. His wife died in 1952.

also known as "Clarendon Charles Carpendale" and later as "Charlie Carpendale"

Birth: 23 December 1874, at Grantham Station, Queensland, Australia

Father: Alexander Victor Carpendale

Mother: Jessie Ann (Turner) Carpendale

Married: Pung-i  "Jessie" Tonanik in 1905 in East Cape, Siberia, Russia.

Occupation: Fur Trapper and Trader (1914); Hudson Bay Company agent; Poultry Farmer (1951)

Death: 23 June 1951, in New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada, aged 77

Buried: New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada

Notes: Clarendon was an adventurer who left his home in Toowoomba, Australia in 1900 and participated in the Yukon gold rush. He found better fortune trading than prospecting, and landed up in East Cape (Cape Dezhnyov), Siberia where he worked as a fur trapper, trader and agent for the Hudson Bay Company. In his book, Arctic Trader, fellow Siberian trader Charles Madsen notes that "Charlie Carpenter" was an assistant at a trading post in East Cape for John Rosene's Northeast Siberian Trading Company in 1908. Madsen describes Carpendale as "a foot-loose old Autralian ...  who had been attracted to Nome by the gold rush, but had had no luck" and later as "a garrulous old man". In a film shot in Siberia in 1914 by Fred Le Roy Granville entitled "Rescue of the Stefansson Arctic Expedition", a short scene occurs in which "Trader Carpendale displays White Fox skins". Clarendon married a local Chukchi woman, Pung-i Tonanik, and became a Russian citizen which had the added benefit of giving him full legal trading rights in contrast to the murky legal position of many of the American traders in Siberia. In 1921, the Hudson Bay Company extended its operations to eastern Siberia, and Clarendon became an agent for the company. The venture, coming at a time of revolutionary confusion and alternating control between Red and White forces, was not a success, and in 1924, Hudson Bay withdrew from Siberia. The extension of Bolshevik control to Eastern Siberia chafed on Carpendale, and in 1927, he escaped Communist rule with his family by crossing the Bering Strait in kayaks, landing in Alaska. They lived for a period in Nome, Alaska, then Seattle, Washington and eventually moved to Surrey, British Columbia. Canadian Immigration records their arrival in Vancouver, British Columbia on 28 November 1927.

Clarendon was a friend of the polar explorer Roald Amundsen, and adopted a child, Nita Amundsen who was a "ward" of Roald. The photograph of the Norwegian flag was sent to Clarendon from Roald Amundsen and is of the flag that Roald carried on his voyage through the North East Passage, and flown at both the (magnetic) North and South poles. In a dispatch from Amundsen reported in The Times in 1922, Carpendales' ability to supply Arctic ventures receives praise:

The Times, Saturday, Nov 11, 1922; pg. 9; Issue 43186; col D
Amundsen's Voyage.
In the following dispatch Captain Roald Amundsen describes his journey from Nome, through Bering Straits to Point Barrow, Alaska, whence he intends to attempt to fly across the Polar Basin. Owing to adverse weather conditions, the flight has been postponed till next summer.
(By Captain Roald Amundsen.)
WAINWRIGHT (ALASKA), Aug. 14.
We left Nome on Wednesday, June 28; the town gave us a hearty cheer on our departure.
Twenty-four hours later we dropped our anchors just outside Kengesko (East Cape), in Siberia. Ice covered a distance of about three miles from the shore out to sea. A team of dogs came rushing out over the ice, and within a short time our friend, Charlie Corpendale, was on board. The whole outfit which I had ordered with him last year was ready and it was an outfit, indeed ! The Maud Expedition is, in fact, fitted out with the very best to be had.
We subsequently made for Cape Naspenberg, in Kotzebue Sound...

Later documents (will etc.) have his name as Clarendon Charles Carpendale.

Notes:
Known as "Bessie". A nephew's son remembers her as "a kindly and wonderful person". She was never married.

This poem was written by Bessie in an album belonging to her cousin Henrietta Groome who visited Falkland in 1903. I have not been able to find any other attribution for the poem, so I assume it to be original.

                   A Fragment

Two streams came dancing from their mountain home,
Careless and glad, along the vale to roam.
And meeting 'neath the bending willow's shade
In company they passed the flowery glade.
Till rudely torn asunder, Parted, wide
By some harsh circumstance the streams divide
But seaward still they keep their shining way,
For there they shall mingle in immensity
To Parted Friends who must on earth no more
Shall find a meeting place when life is o'er

George Carpendale

also spelled as George Capendale

Married (1st): to Elizabeth Wright in 1751

Married (2nd): to Catherine Palfreeman

Children: Occupation: Cordwainer

Notes:
George was a cordwainer in Newark-upon-Trent, Nottinghamshire. Kathleen's records indicate that Thomas William's Carpendale's father was a clergyman and schoolmaster in Mansfield, and married to a Mapletoph (Mapletoft?). Denis Capendale's information that Thomas's parents were George and Catherine is taken from Thomas's baptismal certificate held by the Archivist at Cambridge Unversity. Denis has checked the line of the Mapletofts from North Thoreseby from 1600+ and cannot find a marriage to a Carpendale. However, the Mapletofts had property at Claypole, just outside of Newark. Thomas's father was not a schoolmaster or clergyman there. School records have been checked as have the roll of incumbents at Mansfield. The LDS Ancestral File has George as married to "Miss Marletolt", and born 1717 (in Newark), died 1752, and lists him as "Revd. Dr. George Carpendale"; this correlates with his profession as a clergyman and schoolmaster, but if he died in 1752, he cannot be the father of Thomas William who was born in 1754. This inconsistancy occurs in the LDS Ancestral File record, which has led me to ignore the information in the AF on George Carpendale.

Title: Reverend

Birth: 1764/5

Father: George Carpendale

Mother: Catherine Palfreeman

Occupation: George was curate of Harwood Chapel, northeast of Middleton-in-Teesdale, Yorkshire (now Durham), England.

Death: 13 May 1838, in Teesdale district, Durham, England, aged 73

Death reported in The Churchman:
CARPENDALE, Rev. G. of Harwood Chapel, Middleton in Teasdale, England, age 73 on 13 May 1838

A transcription of burials in Middleton-in-Teesdale shows "Carpendale, George, clerk (Rev), aged 72 of Harwood - 20 Apr 1838" which doesn't quite line up with the death date 13 May 1838 (or else it was a long 23 days for poor George!)

He travelled extensively, delighted in sport, and was distinguished in the exercise of his profession, in which he rose to be Solicitor to the Government of India.
Thomas Everard Tichborne Upton was born to the late Thomas Everard Upton, J.P., of Ashburton, Canterbury, N.Z., in October, 1871. His grandfather was the Rev. Thomas Upton, of Moreton Say, Shropshire. After being at Christ College. Canterbury, N.Z., he joined the Law Society, London, and was admitted to the solicitors' roll in this country in 1897. Five years later he went out to Calcutta as a member of the old-established firm of Orr, Dignam, and Co., and was admitted to the roll of the High Court, Bengal. He was a member of the executive committee and trustee of the Victoria Memorial, Calcutta, from 1919 to 1924. His prominent place in "Ditcher" society was shown by his being president of the Bengal Club in 1920 and his stewardship of the Calcutta Turf Club from 1923. His holiday travels took him to Tibet and Sikkim as well as to all parts of India and Ceylon ; to Africa from the Cape to Cairo, Algeria and Tunis ; to Australia, Canada, and South America. He was a director of numerous companies concerned with Indian commercial and industrial development. He left Calcutta in 1924, but was recalled three years later to take up the appointment of Solicitor to the Government of India.

(article on the wedding of Hazel Carpendale and Thomas Upton)
?Mr. Upton, supported by Mr. Given Wilson as best man arrived very punctually.
  The bride walking up the aisle on the arm of her father and preceded by the choir singing ?the Voice that breathed o?er Eden,? looked perfectly charming in a very simple white satin frock. The skirt was trimmed round the edge with three satin straps cut on the cross, continuing right up the front and giving a panel effect. The bodice had a net yoke and a berth of lovely lace fell over the full puffed sleeves, which were finished at the elbow wit ha strap of white satin matching the skirt. The white tulle veil was prettily arranged on the dark hair and caught up with orange blossom. She carried a pretty white bouquet. The two grown up bridesmaids, Miss Carpendale and Miss Dobson wore sweet frocks of white muslin, the bodice trimmed with cross-over braids of broderie Anglaise and frills of the same on the skirts With this they wore fancy straw hats trimmed with white chiffon and white flowers. They carried white bouquets, and wore charming brooches of brilliants of a fancy bow design with a sapphire centre, the gift of the bridegroom. The little bridesmaid Miss Toynbee enjoyed herself immensely and looked like a big doll, dressed in a short white silk frock with a white hat trimmed with pink La France roses. When the ceremony was over the bridal party repaired to the vestry, and ?O? perfect Love? was sung by the choir and congregation. The bride then walked down the aisle on the arm of her husband, to the strains of Mendlessohn?s Wedding March, greeting her many friends with a happy smile. The bride?s mother wore a lovely dress of a small green check taffetas, trimmed with bands of a deeper shade of green velvet. With this she wore a toque of shades of blue and green.
  The reception was held on the tennis courts near by. Two large shamianas were erected, under one of which stood the cake, and in the other were the many lovely presents. The bridegroom?s present to the bride consisted of a silver fitted dressing case and the bride?s to the bridegroom a silver fitted suit case. Mr. Sparkes proposed the health of the bride and bridegroom, and the band of the 63rd Palamcottahs played various selections. The bride?s going-away dress was of pale blue with a lace yoke and a white hat caught up with pink roses. The honeymoon is to be spent in Darjiling.
  Among the numerous guests present I noticed Mrs. Copleston in grey silk trimmed with lace, and touches of black, the Misses Copleston in white muslin frocks and white lace hats, Mrs. Barrow in blue, Mrs. Harris in a shot oyster coloured taffetas. Miss Harris in white. Mrs. Ormiston in a beautiful gown of French grey cloth, Mrs. And Miss Porter in white?

I feel sincere pleasure in giving my testimony to the excellent conduct of Master John Carpendale.
Whilst he was under my care -
  He was at Dungannon School for three years, the greater proportion of which he lived as a boarder in my house ; I had therefore
every opportunity of knowing his character ; and I can say with truth that he was always distinguished for propriety of conduct, diligence in study and improvement in the various branches of his education.
  He is a good classical scholar and has read Virgil, Lucien etc etc. He has also read a good deal of Euclid, some algebra, trigonometry, arithmetic etc etc.
