The Ricketts family were associated with the Winchester area in Hampshire, and through marriage to the Mildmay family, Shawford House at Twyford. They also had a deep connection with Bengal in British India, with family members in administrative positions around Chittagong, Dhaka and Calcutta. In 1845 Mary Ann Ricketts married Charles Thomas Buckland (1824–1894), a high-ranking official of the Bengal Civil Service at Chittagong.
