I am trying to find the full name [and any other details] about Rev Harcourt N. T. Busfield who was Vicar of Saint John's Church, Coley in 1838. I have tried all the usual freebie sites without much progress.
Thanks in advance

This could be him - marriage Sept quarter 1837 Coventry 16 293
HARCOURT NORRIS TORRIANO BUSFIELD
What a fantastic name!
Looking at A******sty records he could have moved to Scotland as there is a Rev Busfield mentioned there.

Says Wife 1) is margaret Hay McLEOD, which is one of the brides in 1837, and she died 1849 in England.
Wife 2) Was Catherine MORGAN married 1850 but no marriage details (I wonder if they married in Scotland)
Apparently he may have died in New Brunswick.

Hi Ambly
That Catherine threw me so I'm glad you solved that. The strange thing is the date and place of birth of daughter Catherine who is given as being born in 1849 in Scotland. Was she the daughter of first wife Margaret I wonder who perhaps died in childbirth? If so why was she born in Scotland and mother died in England? That's what makes this hobby so interesting all the hows and whys!!

Thanks to you both. All I knew about him was that he was Vicar of Coley. Now he has emerged as a real person and no longer just a dead name.
Thanks again

Hi Malcolm
I know you posted this some time ago but have just came across it.
Catherine Morgan b26 Apr 1815 Canterbury, Kent, England.
She married Rev Harcourt 5 Jan 1850, at the parish Church of Killinkere, Co Cavan, Ireland.
Re the IGI + records of their marriage in Dec 1849, they may have had both a civil and religious ceremony????
Catherine was the daughter of John and Mary Morgan nee Glancy. John was from Bailieborough, Co Cavan, Ireland, and joined the British army in 1807. He was stationed at various posts throughout Europe (incl Canada) in his 30 yr service, and their children were born at various places. At this stage I have no information of Mary's birthplace.
Information sourced from John's service record, as well as research by family members.
Catherine's youngest brother Richard was my gggrandfather, who migrated to Australia in 1853.

Hi Ashe,
I'm heading out on a limb here, as the research I'm doing for Captain John Morgan (1785) - gr888 grandfather. I've been attempting to source his Army Service Record - mostly from FindMyPast, without success. I'm happy to pay for the records, but I am struggling to narrow down the births of his children with Mary Glancy - descending from:
John Morgan 1805 (Born in Canada, in the Navy) m. Sara Gibbin
Richard Francis Morgan 1830 (migrated to Aust. 1853) m. Jane Burns
Richard Francis Morgan 1869 m. Mary Ann Bowman
John Morgan 1902 (migrated back to England 1920's) m. Jane Weir Clark, and
Richard Francis Morgan 1933 (England)
Just wondering if you might point me in the right direction - as I'm doing my research from Australia, and unable to find anything concrete.
Thanks - in advance,
regards
Meg
(nb. researching the Morgan family line for a friend)
