Married 1827. Amateur Artist. Captain James Stirling allocated Lot 9 at Herne Hill to William Locke Brockman in the first issue of land in the Swan River Colony. William Brockman went on to become a Member of Parliament, Chairman of the Agriculture and Roads Boards, and owned a number of properties including 'Cheriton' at Gingin. He was a farmer and grazier as well as horse breeder selling horses to the Indian Army. Many geographical features in Western Australia were named after the Brockman brothers or their immediate descendants. The Perth suburb 'Beechboro' for example, was the name of the Drake-Brockman and Brockman family estate in Kent from which the brothers emigrated. This estate is within close proximity of the towns of Cheriton and Newington near Folkestone, in the south east of England. The Brockman and Drake-Brockman name has become synonymous with the history of Western Australia and has been associated with many of the major developments and achievements of this State. Descendants have been prominent in exploration, politics, the judiciary, and the military, as well as in commerce. William died at Middle Swan 28 November 1872. Anne Francis died 5 March 1876 whilst visiting England.
