Family

Francis Howson (1794 – 13 April 1863) was an English pianist, arranger and voice coach. He married Sarah Sophie Tanner (1796 – 5 November 1839). Their children were given instruction in music and singing, with satisfactory results, particularly their daughter Emma and sons Frank and John. In 1841 his sons Frank, John, and Henry were recruited by theatre manager Anne Clarke, who needed talent for her theatre in Hobart, Tasmania, and together with Frank's wife Emma and child, left on the ship Sydney, arriving in Hobart on 28 January 1842. [1] They were joined on 21 August 1843 by "W. Howson" and "A. Howson" on the bark Eamont [2] The first has been identified as William Edwin and the second as Alfred, [3] about whom nothing has been found. On 2 March 1844 they were joined by their father Francis, two youngest brothers Frederick and Walter, also a Miss (perhaps C.) Howson, yet to be identified. They travelled by the ship Alfred from London to Sydney and Louisa for the last leg of the journey.

In September 1857 Frank Howson, John Howson and Sarah Clelia Howson [lower-alpha 1] performed a concert of sacred music in a choir led by Anna Bishop at the Prince of Wales Theatre, Sydney [4]

Francis settled in Launceston, [5] where, known as "Frank Howson, senior", he gave singing lessons. His advertisements made much of the success achieved by his daughter Emma, known as Madame Albertazzi. He later became insolvent, clearing his debts in 1859. He took part in the family's presentation of Handel's Messiah at the Theatre Royal, Castlemaine, Victoria in March 1863, [6] died from exposure in Parramatta, New South Wales, a month later. [7]

[13] He produced opera in conjunction with Catherine Hayes, Anna Bishop, and Lady Don. [14] In 1866 he left with his wife and family for America, where he formed the "Howson Family Troupe", later styled "Howson English and Italian Opera Troupe", with daughters Emma and Clelia, and son Frank A. Howson.

It is likely he was the Frank Howson who wrote incidental music for the American premiere of Pinero's Trelawney of the 'Wells' in November 1898.

There is no reason to include John Michael Howson, whose paternal grandparents were William Howson (1886 – 7 May 1937), [60] and Gertrude Eileen Howson, née Stack; he was a son of John Francis Howson (1853 – 2 June 1902), [61] and Charlotte Howson, née Finch. The same argument applies to his cousin, the 20th-century Australian actor and filmmaker Frank Michael Howson.
