Biography
child artist, was born on 16 August 1845 in Aldridge Lodge, Hobart Town, a son of Joseph and Mary Morton Allport . His mother taught him to draw from infancy and examples of childish flowers dating from about 1850, either sketched from nature or copied from her drawings, were preserved in her Book of Treasures (ALMFA). Gordon Allport drowned on 10 November 1850, aged five. His mother’s small pencil sketch of him is on the same sheet in her album as one of a dead baby called Dudley – possibly another brother.
