Wilbraham Spencer Tollemache was born on 3 October 1807.[1] He was the younger son of Admiral John Richard Delap Halliday (who assumed the surname and arms of Tollemache in 1821)[2] and his wife, Lady Elizabeth Stratford. His eldest brother was John Tollemache.[3][4]
In 1844 Tollemache married Anne Tomkinson of Dorfold Hall, Acton, in Cheshire.[3][9] Four of their children survived to adulthood:
Julia Anne Elizabeth Tollemache (1845 – 28 December 1931). Julia married Charles Savile Roundell in 1874.[10] She was an active historian and wrote a DNB entry for Anthony Browne and a history of Cowdray.[11][12] Roundell inherited Dorfold Hall on Wilbraham's death and Julia, in turn, inherited when widowed in 1909.
