Fredrick George Whibley (1855–1919) abandoned a career as clerk in a London bank to escape from the constraints and social expectations of respectability in the Victorian era. He ended up as a copra trader on Niutao in the Ellice Islands in the central Pacific Ocean.
Whibley was born in 1855 in Sittingbourne, Kent, England,[1] the youngest son of Ambrose Whibley,[2] silk mercer, and his first wife, Anne Parkes. He was educated at Bristol Grammar School.
After the death of Anne in 1855 Ambrose Whibley married Mary Jean Davy,[3] the daughter of John Davy, an iron merchant of Bristol. Fred Whibley was the half-brother of Charles Whibley, journalist and writer and Leonard Whibley, classical scholar and Fellow of Pembroke College, Cambridge from 1899-1910. Fred’s sister, Eliza Eleanor (Lillie) Whibley, married John T. Arundel, owner of John T Arundel and Company which operated in the Pacific.
