HALKETT, OF HALL HILL, NORTH BRITAIN.

HALKETT-CRAIG1E, CHARLES, esq. of Hall Hill and Dumbamie, in the
county of Fife, formerly an officer in the 93rd regiment or Gordon Highlanders, b.
in December, 1802, m. in 1824, Susan, youngest daughter of Sir John Marjori-
banks, bart. of Lees, in the county of Berwick, and has surviving issue,



Alice-Augusta.
Matilda.



Hmeacje.




The ancient name of Halkett, in the
writs of this family, is promiscuously written
" de Hawkhead" and " de Halkett ;" it is
said to be territorial or local, and to have
been assumed by the proprietors of the
lands and barony of Hawkhead, in Ren-
frewshire, so soon as surnames became here-
ditary in Scotland.

The exact period when the Halketts es-
tablished themselves in Fife cannot at this
distance of time be precisely ascertained,
but we have proofs that they were free
barons, and had large landed possessions
in the western parts of that county six hun-



dred years ago. The first of the family upon
record who distinguished himself by feats
of arms was

David de Halkett, a powerful warrior,
living temp. King David Bruce, and father
of

Phillippus de Halkett, who flourished
in the reigns of Kings Robert II. and
Robert III. In the Chartulary of Dum-
fermline he is designated " Dominus de
Balingall, filius et haeres David de Halkett,
anno Domini 1393." From this Philip de
Halkett we pass over seven generations,
observing the remarkable fact, that the
chiefs of this family have always been in
the military service of their own country,
or that of some allied power.

George Halkett, the ninth in direct
lineal descent and a distinguished officer, es-
poused Isabella, daughter of Sir Patrick
Hepburn, of Waughton, and had three sons
and one daughter, of whom

Sir John Halkett, knt. the third son,
continued the line of the family, and re-
ceived the honor of knighthood from King
James VI. He attached himself to a mili-
tary life, and went into the service of the
states of Holland, where by his bravery and
merit he rose to the rank of general, and
had the command of a Scots regiment. He
was likewise president of the grand Court
Marishall in Holland. Sir John m. Mary

CROKER, (tfribs Councillor.)

CROKER, The Right Honorable JOHN-WILSON, LL.D. F.A.S. b. 20th Decem-
ber, 1780, m. 22nd May, 1806, Rosamond, eldest daughter
of William Pennell, esq. His Majesty's Consul General in
the Brazils, by whom he had a son and a daughter,
who both died young. Upon the decease of his children,
Mr. Croker adopted the sister of Mrs. Croker, and the
young lady then assumed his name. The pencil of Sir
Thomas Lawrence has rendered the person of Miss
Croker familiar to the public in one of his most exquisite
portraits. She has lately espoused Mr. George Barrow,
son of John Barrow, esq. second secretary of the
Admiralty.

Mr. Croker was educated at the University of Dublin,
which he entered as a gentleman commoner in Novem-
ber, 1796, and took his degree in 1800. During his
sojourn at college, he attained very high reputation as a
public speaker, in the celebrated Historical Society, and
as a political writer and poet. He is the presumed author
of two very popular works, published in Dublin about that period — " Familiar Epistles to
Fred. Ed. Jones, esq. upon the Irish Stage," and " A Sketch of the State of Ireland,
past and present." The former, which is in verse, attracted more than ordinary atten-
tion, passing, we believe, through ten editions, in as many months : the latter, as an
adaptation of the style of Tacitus to English composition, is a master-piece. Mr.
Croker was called to the bar in 1802, and offering himself soon after for Downe, in
Ireland, stood a contested election; but not being returned, presented a petition to
parliament. Another dissolution taking place, pending the petition, Mr. Croker
was chosen at the ensuing election, in 1807. From that time he has had a seat in
every succeeding parliament. Upon the promotion of Lord Plunket to the bench,
in 1827, Mr. Croker succeeded that eminent person in the representation of the Uni-
versity of Dublin, wherein he had taken the degree of LL.D. in 1809 : in which year
he was appointed secretary of the admiralty ; an office which he filled until the retire-
ment of his party, in 1830. He had been sworn a member of the most honorable privy
council in 1828.

Mr. Croker, during his long tenure of office, confined his parliamentary exertions to
subjects connected with his own department, which afforded but few occasions of dis-
tinction ; but he has acquired great celebrity as leader of the present opposition (1832)
in the House of Commons, and his abilities have been confessed by all parties. As a
political writer, many articles in the Quarterly Review, and several pamphlets upon
public questions, bear ample testimony to his great powers ; and a late edition of Bos-
well's Life of Johnson is a proof of more literary diligence than might have been
expected from a poet or a politician.

Hmeage.



This family is a branch of the house of
Croker of Lineham, in the county of De-
von ; a name so eminent, that there is an
old proverbial distich, or, as Prince ( Wor-
thies of Devon, p. 274) calls it " old saw,"
recording its antiquity ;

" Croker, Crewys, and Copplestone,

\V hen the Conqueror came, were at home."

The Crokcrs, who were originally seated



at Croker's Hele and Crokern Tor in Devon-
shire, became possessed, in the reign of
Henry IV., of Lineham by marriage with
the heiress of Churchill of that place ; the
younger male branch of which family was
the ancestor of the Duke of Marlborough.

The genealogy of Croker of Lineham
is preserved with singular accuracy by
Prince, Risdon, Pole, and the other Devon-
shire historians, as well as by numerous

pedigrees and documents. There were no
less than eleven John Crokers in almost
uninterrupted succession, hut the last male
of the elder branch was Courteney Croker,
esq. whose only daughter and heiress, Mary,
carried the estate of Lineham into the fa-
mily of Bulteel, and her grandson John
Bulteel, esq. of Fleet, is now the owner of
Lineham ; which is in the occupation of his
eldest son John Croker Bulteel, esq. who
is thus the representative by the female
line of the eldest branch of Croker of Line-
ham. This gentleman married in 1826,
the Lady Elizabeth Grey, third daughter of
Charles, present Earl Grey, K.G. and has
been lately elected M.P. for South Devon.
We must now return to a junior, but at
present the eldest male branch.

Thomas Croker, of Trevillas in Corn-
wall, second son of the eighth John Croker,
of Lineham, obtained, about 1600, the estate
of Ballyanker, in the county of Waterford,
and while his eldest son remained at Trevil-
las, (where his branch is supposed to be ex-
tinct,) his younger sons, to the number of
three or four, migrated to Ireland. They
were all probably soldiers ; two of them, at
least, were so, and distinguished themselves
by the extraordinary and almost romantic
capture of the city of Waterford in 1650,
(see Smith's History of Waterford, p. 147,
ed. 1774.^ One of the brothers was killed
in the assault, the other (Hugh) after a long
course of military service settled at Bally-
anker, and died in January, 1663 : from him
the subject of this notice is descended.
His youngest brother, Edward, (who was
murdered in the Irish Rebellion, 1641) was
ancestor of the respectable and wealthy
family of Croker, of Ballynagard, in the
county of Limerick, and of a numerous
branch settled in Dublin, to which belong,
Anne, daughter and heiress of Thomas
Croker, and wife of Sir Ed. Crofton, bart.
created in 1797, baroness Crofton, in her
own right ; and Thomas Crofton Croker,
esq. known by many literary works.

Walter Croker, esq. of Tallow, the
grandson of Hugh, the captor of Waterford,
had by the daughter of Reginald Bray, an
only son,

John Croker, esq. of Tallow, who was
born in 1695, and died in 1743, leaving three
sons, — Walter, of Tallow, — John, of Airhill,
— and William, of Johnstown. — John left
male issue, but William left an only daugh-
ter and heiress, who married the Honorable
Frederick Mullins, son of the first Lord
Ventry, and by him has issue, Frederick-
William, M.P. for Kerry, in the present
and two last parliaments.

Walter Croker, esq. the eldest son of
John, of Tallow, was born in 1728, and d.



in 1789, leaving by his wife, Sarah, daugh-
ter of Edward Devereux, esq. one son,

John Croker, esq. surveyor-general of
Ireland, who was horn in 1743, and died
29th April, 1814. He was a man of great
abilities and most amiable manners, an able
and upright public servant, and in private
life universally respected and beloved. He
m. first, Catherine Welstead, by whom he
had surviving issue,

Walter, who d. in 1807, leaving two
daughters, Catherine, the wife of
William Pennell, jun. esq. and Mar-
garet, the wife of Lovell Pen-
nell, esq. These ladies both have
issue.
Catherine, m. to William Miller, esq.
of Londonderry, and has issue.
Mr. Croker espoused secondly, Hester, only
daughter of the Rev. Richard Rathborne,
and grandaughter of Admiral Wilson,* by
whom he had two surviving children, the
present Right Honorable John Wilson
Croker, and Sarah, who m. in 1815, the
very Rev. J. T. Bond, dean of Ross. Mrs.
Bond died in 1820, leaving an only son, who
died in 1828.

Arms — Arg. a chevron engrailed gu. be-
tween three ravens, ppr. quartering the arms

Crest— A drinking cup or, with three fleurs
de lis ppr. above it, and on the centre a
rose ; granted by Edward IV. to Sir John
Croker, who accompanied him as cup and
standard bearer in his expedition to France
in 1475. The addition of the fleurs de lis
was one of those attentions on the part of
the French monarch Louis XL by which
he sought to flatter the vanity, and gain the
good will of the English gentry. On minis-
ters, says Hume, he lavished pensions and
pecuniary bribes. To less influential per-
sons such lighter but more honorable favors
as this to Sir John Croker. The tomb of
this Sir John Croker, " Signifer Regis Ed-
vardi Quarti," with his effigy in brass, is in
perfect preservation in the church of Yeal-
hampton, near Lineham.
