| Note |
Although not conclusive, I believe Anthony was distantly related to the current UK Welbanks.
His mother appears to be the daughter of Richard Thomas Welbank, who was in the Madras Army before resigning and living in France. His father Christopher Welbank lived in St Vincent and was a slave owner. Christopher had two fairly distinguished brothers, John, who was a surgeon, and Richard, who was a civil servant and lived in the Tower of London.
Christopher was born in Boroughbridge, Yorkshire. His father, grandfather, and great-grandfather Robert all worked in the shoemaking trade. The UK Welbanks are descended from a younger son of Robert's. |

| Appears his mother's maiden name was Welbank, and her father was Welbank, thought by his neighbours to be an English Field Marshal. I wonder if he was Richard Thomas Welbank, who left the Madras Army in 1834 and died in France in 1855; Natalie was born in 1838 in Saxony. Have now found Nathalie's baptism in Dresden; her father's name is given as Richard Welbank. I have also found Richard Thomas' death notice in the Pau Archives; his wife was called Hermine Siebec; they married in Vienna in 1838, the same year Natalie was born; Natalie's middle name is Hermine which is supportive but not conclusive. |
