We are Ian and Caroline Lycett-King

There are currently seven people with the name of Lycett-King. Us, plus Gavin, Karli, Faith, Hermione and Humphrey, all living in the Melbourne area, Australia.

We have a daughter, Melanie, as well, but she is now a Moorhouse.

Lycett-Kings have been around since the mid 1970s, when we got married and joined our surnames together.

We were both teachers for many years and we’re now semi-retired, making a bit of money out of examination work and living history.

Family History.

Follow this link for more details

Caroline’s parents, and my sister and her husband have done all the hard work for us by researching the two sides of the family.

Caroline’s famous ancestors. Sort of.

Caroline’s grandmother was a De Ratti and there is a family link to Pope Pius XI. Not a direct ancestor for obvious reasons, but interesting.

Randolph Lycett was a well known tennis player in the 1920s.

Joseph Lycett was an artist, transported to Australia for forgery in 1813.

All offsite links open in a new window.

Ian’s famous ancestor.

There isn’t one. Ian’s ancestors seem to have been poor and nondescript. Some of the family tree goes back to the 1500s but no one famous has turned up yet.


No rich ones with a hidden fortune to find either.


Ian and Caroline on MSC Splendida

Finally got trapped by the ship’s photographer.

We’re on MSC Splendida, somewhere off the coast of Spain, celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary.

Ian and Caroline at Slag om Grolle

At the end of Slag om Grolle in October 2010. On our way back to the battlefield after setting off the mine that acted as the grand finale. 4Kg of gunpowder makes a big bang, hence the grins.

It was actually closed that day, but our guide appeared to know everyone in the town and got us in anyway.

A few family pictures and contacts

If you want to find out more about members of the family, you’ll need to visit their own web pages.

Faith has a Facebook page.

You can find Gavin and Karli on Linked-in.

Melanie has pages on Facebook, Linked-in and loads of other social media sites.

Hermione, Humprey and Alexander are minors so you’ll have to go via their parents for them.
