  2. 1891 Census - 2 Lordship Land? (Lane), Tottenham, Middlesex (Job finding this as Ancestry.com had MUNSON down as MUNTON and birth place as Tebslian, instead of Felstead. Both are quite clear on the Census return as MUNSON and Felstead. This gives me the correct name for the first wife.
  3. 1881 Census - Newland Street, Witham, Essex. 
    1891 Census - Eagle Yard, Witham, Essex. Flora BUSHELL, aged 1, born Witham, Essex, was with her Grandparents, Allen COLYER aged 69 a Watchmaker and Jeweller born Dover, Kent and his wife Elizabeth A, aged 60, born Folkstone, Kent. Flora' mother, Mary Ann BUSHELL was also with her parents, a Widow, aged 29, a Milliner, born Witham, Essex.

  4. 1881 Census - Newfoundland Cottage, Bexley, Kent. There is a Charles H BUSHELL aged 24 born Warrington, Lancashire. The children of this family were born in different places suggesting that the family moved around. Charles's father, George was also a Stone Mason. As the marriage between Charles and Mary COLYER took place in Dartford, Kent and her family came from Kent, I think this is the most likely candidate for the Charles H BUSHELL we are looking for. I will however add no further details as I cannot prove in any way that this is the correct person.
    On 6th January 2007 Heather Zibell contacted me with the following information for Charles Henry BUSHELL which she found in some old newspaper achives on the internet.
    Death: 28 November 1888 - Charles Henry Bushell - Age 31 Mason - Late of Bexley Heath Kent - Accidentally drowned whilst bathing at Bulimba Brisbane. - It was in the The Queenslander Newspaper. Sadly he wife Mary Ann returned to England and gave birth to their daughter in 1889. Flora Bushell never knew her father

There was a Flora L BUSHELL Step Daughters aged 11 born Witham, Essex with the family. 
    Valerie Dust on GenesReunited says that Edith married and lived in Chesterfield.
    On the BMD on the September quarter 1911 (the first to show the mothers maiden name) there is an Oscar R. WHEATCROFT (MUNSON) Chesterfield 7b1745 (On note 13 Valerie Dust says that this family lived in Chesterfield) I will put a chart on for this family
    On the BMD on the September quarter 1914 there is an Harold B. WHEATCROFT (MUNSON) Chesterfield 7b1541 (On note 13 Valerie Dust says that this family lived in Chesterfield) I will put a chart on for this family.
    I am fairly certain that brothers married sisters and that Harold was this brother of Thomas. I do not have any children for Harold and Emma at present so the chart just takes you to the Munson Chart with Emma on it, whereas I found two children for Thomas, OR I think I had done so, but of course Harold the second child could be and is possibly more than likely because of the name the child of Harold and Emma. Without purchasing the certificate I have no way of proving this one way or the other.

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.
