Are you still looking at your Bond family? I'm checking this family out at the moment, as a lot of Americans think that the name was actually Boud or Bowd. They think that Joseph's (born 1796) elder brother John married as BOND in Cambridge to Mary Ann MODEN. John died before censuses but his widow was always enumerated as BOWD. Their son John William emigrated to the USA c1854 but died in Iowa the same year, presumably as a member of the LDS, as his widow died much later in Salt Lake City. As a consequence there's a load of very iffy entries submitted by members on the IGI. I suspect that all have got it wrong!

Hi Bunny
Actually it's not that far-fetched. An "n" and a "u" can look very similar. Bond is rarely transcribed as Boud, but the more unusual Boud is often transcribed as Bond. And then there is more scope for confusion between Boud and Bowd, but these are more usually merely spelling variations.
The confusion with the Americans comes when John William Boud or Bowd is definitely shown as such in US records, and in the 1841 and 1851 censuses. But he was baptised as what is transcribed as Bond and his parents were married as Bond, as were his assumed ancestors. And his US descendants have rewritten the whole lot as Boud!
I was hoping that your talented Bond researcher would have cracked them, but no such luck! Here's what I've put together, which is different to what you'll find in online trees. Contraryness is my Mastermind specialist subject! It needs checking though
Descendants of Reuben Bond

1. Reuben BOND married Elizabeth Asplin on 27 Apr 1736 at Hardwick, Cambs.1
Children of Reuben Bond and Elizabeth Asplin both born at Hardwick, Cambs, were as follows:

+ 11 vii. John BOND, b. 17 Oct 1790 at St Benedict, Cambridge; m. Mary Ann Moden.
12 viii. James BOND was born on 17 Oct 1790 at St Benedict,
Cambridge.17 Not the James who married Mary
Brown in Isleham in 1806. He was older, and not born
in Cambs (Isle of Ely).

14 x. Joseph BOND was christened on 3 Jul 1796 at St Benedict, Cambridge.18 He married Frances Prigg in 1823 at St Sepulchre, Cambridge.19
It's too big. I'll have to split it

Cambridge.35 He married Mary Ann Moden on 27 Aug 1827 at St Michael, Cambridge.36 He died in 1830 at St Michael,
Cambridge; John BOND, age 40.37
It's odd that the family is always transcribed as Bond until the 1841 census when it is clearly BOWD.
Children of John Bond and Mary Ann Moden both born at Cambridge were as follows:
22 i. John William BOND was born on 24 May 1827; On Cambs FHS baptism index as John W BOND, son of John and Mary A of Market Hill, Holy Trinity, Cambridge.38,39 He married
Rebecca Lock Bailey on 25 Dec 1850 at All Saints, Cambridge: John William BOUD and Rebekah BAILEY.40 He died on 3 Oct 1854 at Keokuk, Lee, Iowa. As the family was disembarking at Keokuk, the ship's boiler exploded and John Bowd was killed.
He appeared on the census of 6 Jun 1841 in the household of Mary Ann Moden at All Saints, Cambridge; Simon Moden 73 Sawyer; Mary Bowd 43 Ind; John Bowd 13. All born in Cambs.41 He appeared on the census of 30 Mar 1851 in the household of Mary Ann Moden at Jesus Lane, All Saints, Cambridge; Mary Ann Bowd head widow 53 dressmaker; John William Bowd son Marr 22 tailor; Rebekah Bowd dau in law marr 24. All born Cambridge.42 He emigrated on 24 Jan 1853 from Liverpool.
23 ii. Mary Ann BOWD was born in 1829; On Cambs FHS baptism index as Mary A BOND, dau of John and Mary A of Market Hill, Holy Trinity, Cambridge.43
13. Reuben BOND was christened on 2 Apr 1792 at St Benedict, Cambridge.44 He married Sophia Bell on 30 Jun 1817 at St Giles, Cambridge.45 He died in Dec 1860 at Chesterton registration district, Cambs; age 70.46,47
He appeared on the census of 6 Jun 1841 at Pound Hill, St Giles, Cambridge; Reuben Bond 40 Tailor; Sophia Bond 35; Joseph Bond 20 Tailor; Lucy Bond 9. All born in Cambs.48 He appeared on the census of 30 Mar 1851 at Victoria Rd, Chesterton, Cambs; Reuben Bond head marr 61 tailor b
Hardwick; Sophia Bond wife 55 laundress b Cambridge; Joseph Bond son (visitor) marr 32 India merchant b Cambridge; Lucy Bond dau unmarr 18 b Cambridge. They were living two doors away from John & Lois Bailey, the parents of Reuben's assumed niece Rebecca, wife of John William Bowd.49
Children of Reuben Bond and Sophia Bell were as follows:
24 i. Eliza BOND was christened in 1818 at St Giles, Cambs; of Pound Hill.50 She died in 1818. She was buried in 1818 at St Giles, Cambs; age 4 mths.51
25 ii. Joseph BOND was christened in 1819 at St Giles, Cambridge; of Pound Hill.52
26 iii. Sarah Lucy BOND was christened in 1833 at St Giles,

Let me know what you think.
I still can't work out why the spelling of John William should have changed from BOND to BOUD!

I had assumed that you had the children of Joseph and Frances, but if not, 10 mins hard labour from free sites on the internet from someone stuck in France:
1. Joseph BOND was christened on 3 Jul 1796 at St Benedict, Cambridge.1 He married Frances Prigg in 1823 at St Sepulchre, Cambridge.2 He appeared on the census of 6 Jun 1841 at Market Hill, St Mary the Great, Cambridge; Joseph Bond 40 Grocer, Frances Bond 35. Both born Cambs. The kids seem to be living at St Edwards Passage, St Edwards Cambridge; Frederick Bond 15; Mary Bond 7; Frances Bond 5; Caroline Bond 4; Joseph Bond 1. All born Cambs.3 He appeared on the census of 30 Mar 1851 at 32 Market Hill, Cambridge; Joseph Bowd head marr 54 Grocer emp 8 men b St Benedict Cambridge; Frances Bond wife 47 b All Saints Cambridge; Frederick Bowd son unmarr 26 Journeyman grocer b St Clements Cambridge; M A Bowd dau unmarr 17 At home, b St Mary the Great Cambridge; Frances A Bowd dau 15 b St Mary the Great Cambridge.4
Children of Joseph Bond and Frances Prigg were as follows:
2 i. Frances BOND was christened in 1823 at Holy Trinity,
Cambridge; of Bridge St. The name is enumerated as
Francis, but I have assumed it was a daughter as the
mother is also shown as Francis.5 She died in 1829
at St Sepulchre, 3; of Bridge St, age 3.6
3 ii. Frederic BOND was christened in 1825 at Holy Trinity,
Cambridge; of Bridge St.7
4 iii. Emma BOND was christened on 16 Dec 1827 at Holy
Trinity, Cambridge; of Bridge St.10,11 She died in
1840 at Cambridge.12
5 iv. Elizabeth BOND was christened on 17 Jan 1830 at St
Clement, Cambridge.13,14
6 v. William H BOND was christened in 1831 at Holy
Trinity, Cambridge; age 1 month, of Market Hill.15
7 vi. Mary Ann BOND was born on 15 Sep 1833 at Market
Hill, Cambridge.16,17 She was christened on 13 Oct
1833 at St Mary the Great, Cambridge; of Market
Hill, aged 28 days.18,19
8 vii. Frances Ann BOND was christened on 14 Jun 1835 at

mth.26 She died in 1847 at Cambridge.27
10 ix. Joseph BOND was born in 1840 at Cambridge; Pure
assumption from the 1841 census that he was a son
of Joseph and Frances Bond.29

I wonder just how that gem of an error occurred and then who the heck decided to perpetuate it. (throw hands in air in exasperation). Personally I'm looking forward to when time travel becomes part of public transport so I can go back and see all this for myself and sort it out.
Anyone's guess I suppose. Anything from not wanting the family to find them to some official mistranscribing or mispronouncing it and then it just had to stick. Who knows?
