Hi Hallmark ... been a while .. yes I did contact AirB&B but a dead end ... I will still be going to Ireland in a year or two but will tour in a motorhome instead .. there's so much for us to explore both in Ireland and other links into Dorset UK ... Still sourcing William's mother and Maj Denis link ... have memoranda land gifts from Maj Denis Bingham and Arthur Houston upon William Bingham marriage to Maria Houston but that is the only proof of a rather type link... kind regards Bob
Hi Bob – I appear to have lost the Australian branch of the family…sorry about that!!!
My records are from some newspaper cuttings (obituaries etc) and notes my parents made when they were trying to interest us in the family history some years ago. I wonder if Mother didn’t realise there were two Robert Johns?
I have Arthur Shean Bingham family as follows:
Annie – My parents new her decendents
Ellen - Unmarried
Dennis -Married Ursula, no family
Susan Maria* b.1864 – Married John Hinchliff, moved to Yorkshire.
Jane – Married John Claxton (As a small boy I knew their son also Arthur - see photo)
Arthur – Married Margaret Bury (As a small boy I met their son Bev Bingham)
Robert John – Died at 2 months.
Samuel – Chicago
Robert John – Your branch – I have no record of at all.
*Susan Maria Bingham b. 8th March1856 / married 21st October 1879 / died 7th April 1932
