Bull-Strangways

Bull-Strangways Family

This family has a strong connection with Shapwick in Somerset from the time of the marriage of Thomas Strangways to Elizabeth Bull [Coat of Arms]

As with the York families they are well connected members of the “landed gentry” - and link back to the family that also has descendants that formed the Fox-Strangways family; Earls of Ilchester.

This family line can trace its origins back through the medieval families to the earliest generations. It also includes a significant branch of the Strangways family that moved to Canada. Some members of the Canadian families had a belief that they were directly descended from the Earls of Ilchester - even though, as yet, no one has succeeding in showing that to be the case. This tree will need major changes if some evidence of that emerges.

“Henry Bull Templer Strangways (1832-1920) of Shapwick went to South Australia in 1857 (probably arriving in Victoria on the vessel Simla in May 1857). In addition to working as a solicitor, he was elected to the South Australian Lower House as the member for Encounter Bay in 1858. Throughout the 1860's he held a number of important ministerial positions including Commissioner of Crown Lands and Immigration under the Premierships of Waterhouse, Dutton, and Ayers. In October 1868 with the defeat of Ayers' third ministry, Strangways formed a ministry of his own and became Premier of South Australia on 31-Nov-1868. A post he held until 30-May-1870. He later returned to England as a practicing barrister and J P for Somerset.”
