Salvin family of Sunderland Bridge, Co. Durham, and London

A cadet branch of the Salvin family of Croxdale, Co. Durham, called by Robert Surtees Salvin of Sunderland Bridge (see Surtees, The history and antiquities of the County Palatine of Durham ... (1816-40) vol. IV, pt. 2, p. 120 for pedigree) descended from Anthony Salvin (d. 1709), the eighth son of Gerard Salvin of Croxdale (d. 1663). His descendant Lieut.-General Anthony Salvin, resident in London, was the father of Anthony Salvin the architect (1799-1881), who married his cousin Ann, daughter of the Rev. William Nesfield, rector of Brancepeth (d. 1828) and sister of the architect William Andrews Nesfield. Their elder son Anthony, also an architect, predeceased his father, and their second son was Osbert Salvin F.R.S. the naturalist (1835-1898), whose eldest daughter Sybil married Edmund Calverley in 1893.
