Jacob Henry Connop was born on 2nd September 1834, the son of Jacob and Mariana Connop. Jacob Henry Connop was baptised on 2nd December 1834 at the Old Church of St Pancras, London. Mariana Connop (1799-1869) gave birth to three daughters - Mariana Maria (born 1824), Sarah Harriet (born 1826) and Mary Jane (born 1832), but it appears that Jacob Henry Connop was the only son to survive into adulthood. Jacob Connop senior (c1796-1857) was a City of London broker, financier and property speculator who was involved in the development of the Ladbroke Grove area in Notting Hill, London during the 1830s. Unlike his father, Jacob Henry Connop showed no interest in a financial affairs and chose an artistic career instead.
