    Notes:

    Lt.-Gen. Charles Ashe ? Court Repington was baptised with the name of Charles Ashe ? Court

    Married Anna Maria Gibbs (1793-1878), daughter of Abraham Gibbs of Naples and then Palermo (cousin of the English mercantile family of William and Anthony Gibbs) and Mary Elizabeth Douglas, youngest daughter of Sir James Douglas, the British Consul General in Naples. Sir James Douglas died in 1795 and Mary Elizabeth in 1797, leaving the infant Anna Maria as one of the heirs to Sir James Douglas' St Kitts's estates. On their marriage in 1815, Anna Maria assumed her mother's names as Mary Elizabeth Catherine. Abraham Gibbs settled ?30,000 in trust on the couple as part of the marriage settlement, but then went bankrupt and committed suicide in 1816, amid allegations that he had misappropriated revenues due to Nelson's heir. Charles A'Court pressed for the settlement to be honoured, and separated from Mary, settling for ?10,000 in 1818 and returning to England with Mary, remarrying to ensure the legitimacy of their heir (Charles Henry Wyndham A'Court) at Heytesbury 07/07/1819.

    Charles married Mary Elizabeth Catherine Gibbs on 10 May 1815. Mary (daughter of Abraham Gibbs and Mary Elizabeth Douglas) was born in 1793; died on 21 Jan 1878. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
