I was just wondering how, if at all, he was related to Timothy James Hanbury, the father of the Marchioness of Cholmondeley.

Thanks.

For the common ancestor, see this thread about his granddaughter (Rhoda) Willow b 2020. G. Willis found the link


HANBURY, (Rhoda) Willow b 2020

The common ancestor is one Osgood Hanbury (1765-1852) City banker, and his wife (md 1789) Susannah Willet (1769-1818) nee Barclay.

Christopher Hanbury is descended from the fifth son Philip Hanbury  (1802-1878) and his wife (md 1843) Elizabeth Christina Collot d'Escury.


 Their daughter Clotilda Agatha was mother of Hanbury Pawle, father of Rosemary Pawle (first wife of Group Captain Peter Townshend, then of John de Laszlo, and lastly wife  of the 5th Marquess Camden). 
 

Philip's fifth son Ernest Osgood Hanbury (1852-1927) was grandfather of Christopher's father Osgood "Pedro" Philip Villiers Hanbury (1917-1943). This from G. Willis


Tim Hanbury is descended from the second son Robert Hanbury (1796-1884) and his wife Emily Willet Hall (1801-1847), possibly a cousin maternallty given Robert's mother was Susannah Willet Barclay.


Robert Hanbury (1796-1884). His wife is listed as Emily Willet Hall but G.Willis has her as Eleanor.


His eldest son Robert Culling Hanbury (1823-1867) MP 1857-1867 for Middlesex, md firstly 1849 Caroline Smith (1828-1863)
http://www.thepeerage.com/p50521.htm#i505203 (Caroline Smith) great granddaughter of Abel Smith and Mary Bird

Timothy's great grandfather
Evan Hanbury (1804-?) md 1886  Gwendoline Harret Finch (1866-?) dau of Rt Hon George Henry Finch and Emily Eglantine Balfour




Grandfather:  Evan Robert Hanbury (1857-1918)


Tim's father James Robert Hanbury (1914-1971)


Timothy James Hanbury (b 1952)

 The ancestry can be found for each individual mentioned.

I am typing on my phone and cannot type in the actual names generation by generation.
