Kidman family fonds

  • CA UVICARCH SC624
  • Archief
  • 1829- 1930, predominant 1895- 1912

The fonds consists of three family-owned albums. Each album was produced with different degrees of collaboration between Henry Kidman, Lilian Kidman, Ella Kidman, as well as their other family members and friends. The collection includes one art album: a scrapbook consisting mostly of art created by the Kidman family. Additionally, the scrapbook contains original artwork by non-family members, greeting cards, and some family memorabilia—including a letter addressed to Mary Ann Elliot Lines, Henry Kidman’s mother, written on the evening before her wedding. The collection also contains two autograph albums: one owned by Lilian Kidman and one owned by Ella Kidman. Given to the two sisters as Christmas gifts in 1897, the two commercially made albums match aside from the colour of their covers. Both Lilian and Ella Kidman employed their albums to collect autographs, inscriptions, and artwork from their family and friends. The sisters had many mutual friends, and their respective autograph albums contain similar entries from their shared connections.

Kidman family art album

This item is a scrapbook primarily consisting of art created by the Kidman family. The artwork includes pencil drawings, ink drawings, and watercolour paintings with many different subjects: portraits, animals, plants, and a variety of fantasy scenes (including Ella Kidman’s ink illustration of the witches from Shakespeare’s Macbeth). Some of the scrapbook’s contents capture different elements of the Kidman family’s history. One page features a pasted-in ink sketch (1867) by Henry Kidman, depicting Porters End Farm in Kimpton, Hertfordshire—the estate where he lived and worked in the 1850s and 1860s before getting married and having children. Another page includes a pasted-in letter addressed: “To Mary Ann Elliot Lines, the evening before her marriage April 29th 1829.” Lines was Henry Kidman’s mother, and the letter was written by Jane Kingston, Henry Kidman’s grandmother. Other notable features of the scrapbook are four cut-out, decorative address sections of envelopes, addressed to “Miss Kidman, Bateman House, Bateman Street.” These envelope cut-outs are likely from letters sent by Ella Kidman to Lilian Kidman. The scrapbook also contains greeting cards and a variety of loose leaf paintings and drawings.
