Samuel Wensley Blackall (1 May 1809 – 2 January 1871) was an Irish soldier and politician, who was the second Governor of Queensland from 1868 until he died in office in 1871.[1][2]
^Note: Blackall was not the same Samuel Blackall who was linked with Jane Austen as a potential suitor. The latter was a Fellow of Emmanuel College, Cambridge, of whom Jane commented in letters to her sister Cassandra, 'There is less love and more sense in it than sometimes appeared before, and I am very satisfied. It will all go on exceedingly well and decline away in a very reasonable manner". See: Marghanita Laski (1977) Jane Austen and her world, Thames and Hudson London. p. 46
