Thomas BASHFORD
  1. 1817 Reigate, Surrey
  2. 1823, Reigate, Surrey
    1841 Earlswood, Reigate, Surrey. No Eliza living with him, only children Jane, Eliza, Sarah and William, no Caroline. Living with them was William KNIGHT (20) Ag Lab born Surrey. Living next to a Thomas and Mary DENMAN
    1851 Not found
    We are not sure whether John married either Ruth PEAT or Eliza ONGLEY. He cannot have married both, one on 1823 and the other in 1824 because the Ruth PEAT's children's births are from 1821-1833 and Eliza ONGLEY's chldren's births are from 1825-1835. We are not sure if we will ever find a solution to this problem so information about both families have been included showing the two possibilities.
    If this John POWELL married Ruth PEAT he died before 1841, probably before September 1837
    If this John POWELL married Eliza ONGLEY he was alive for the 1841 census but has not been found on the 1851 census and no death between 1841 and1851 in the Reigate District, Surrey has been found. The only probable John POWELL death in the Reigate District, Surrey was in the March quarter of 1865. So where was the John who died then in 1851 and 1861?
  3. 1823 Reigate, Surrey (a widow)
    1841 Flax? Shop, Charlwood, Surrey. Living with her were Hannah (10) and Elizabeth (8). Also in the same property was Samuel NEWMAN (50) Age Lab born Surrey
    1851 Page Wood, Charlwood, Surrey. Living with her was son William (30) Bricklayer's Labourer born Reigate, Surrey and daughter Elizabeth (18) born Charlwood, Surrey
    1861 Not found
  4. 1881 Rosemary Lane Cottages, Charlwood, Surrey as a widower. Age given as 65 so born 1816 Redhill, Surrey. Lodging with James NIGHTINGALE (61) Ag Lab, his wife Esther (47) and children Hannah (15), Maria (11) Scholar, Harry (9) Scholar, William (6) Scholar and Harriett (3) all born 
    Charlwood, Surrey.
    We think that perhaps this William died young as Ruth called another of her sons William.
    On the other hand, the second William did not seem to know when he was born, either 1821, or 1816, the same year as this William. Perhaps they were the same man? See William born 1821 son of Ruth and John POWELL for other details.

  7. 1841 Crutchfield, Horley, Surrey. Age as 20 so born 1821 Surrey. Living in the same property as John FRANCIS (65) Farmer, Sarah (90), John (25) and Mary (25), together with Rebecca FOSTER (40) Independent, Jane FLINT (15) Female Servant,  Thomas FARABLE? (20) Male Servant, David LADD (15) Male Servant and Richard BONE  (15) Male Servant all born Surrey
    1851 Page Wood, Charlwood, Surrey. Living with her was son William (30) Bricklayer's Labourer born Reigate, Surrey and daughter Elizabeth (18) born Charlwood, Surrey 
    1861 Page Wood, Charlwood, Surrey. Age given as 46 so born 1815 Charlwood, Surrey. Living next door to a DENMAN family
    Details of Marriage not found
    1871 Not found
    1881 Rosemary Lane Cottages, Charlwood, Surrey as a widower. Age given as 65 so born 1816 Redhill, Surrey. Lodging with James NIGHTINGALE (61) Ag Lab, his wife Esther (47) and children Hannah (15), Maria (11) Scholar, Harry (9) Scholar, William (6) Scholar and Harriett (3) all born 
    Charlwood, Surrey
    The information about the Williams in this family, and that of Ruth PEAT and her first husband, William POWELL, is confusing.
    William and Ruth had a son William baptised 1816. We have no other information for him.
    Ruth shows she has a son William on the 1851 census when he is living with her age 30 born in Reigate. This makes him born in 1821 after first husband William had died and before she married second husband John. 
    Ages and addresses for this second William are shown as:
    In 1841 he is in Horley born 1821
    In 1851 he is definitely in Charlwood, with his mother, born 1821
    In 1861 he is in Charlwood at a similar address to that of 1851 but is born in 1815
    In 1871 – not found
    In 1881 he is in Charlwood (as POWEL) born 1816
    We could obviously have collected the wrong information, but, for example, the details for the address in 1851 and 1861 suggest that the two entries are for the same William, however, although the 1851 shows him as the son of Ruth, the birth date and place of birth are different to that on the 1861 census
    Help needed!

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
