Hi, I just discovered this thread today

Descended from Giles Rumble etc son Thomas.

I'm interested in Emma Rumble born 1837...did she really have 7 illegitimate children as well as the two by Richard Mills...or was she married to a cousin with the same name?

Wow, thanks.

William looks right.

The marriage is very promising. I'm sure there are some Philips in later census records with my Bull's!

Thank you very much, I'll start on the Philips!

Not direct, Diana Bull is my 4x great grand aunt, as described by family search

Yes. Travellers.

Kezia married two.
Stephen was travelling chimney sweep as were his children
Job was travelling chimney sweep, no children
Luke was travelling chimney sweep, his children marred Gregory, Ayres, Rampton, Hold, Gritt, Doe, Black

Romany and Traveller FHS is worth joining if you want to look further into these.

Diana's father was a traveller in that he was a knife and razor sharpener, but his family were weavers from Bradford on Avon

Hi,

Still digging around and found this so far...

In presence of George Frankum X
                           Kezia Frankum X

Kezia was Diana's sister, George her second husband


Diana was one of 8 children of William and Rosamund Bull, chimney sweep. (Hannah, Stephen, Kezia, Jemima, Job, Luke, Kerenhappach and Diana)

William was son of Stephen and Anne Bull. Born Bradford on Avon about 1752, married Stratfield Saye 1771


Stephen born Bradford on Avon in 1730s, date not yet found, former soldier with Gen Skelton's Regiment of Foot

Razor and knife grinder in 1765 and 1776

Apprenticed to Joshua Woodward of Trowbridge? Or Bradford on Avon, broadloom weaver, but left after 4 years

Married Anne in Ludgate Chapel, City of London 1751

4 known children, William, Elizabeth, Catherine, Sarah


His father, possibly Paul Bull married to Catherine Gray 29 July 1733 in Bradford on Avon

Paul christened 2 June 1712 BOA, sister Miriam 1714 (might have married Jacob Bull, Broughton Giffard Wilts 1735 poss 9 children)

No further info on Paul at present.

Hi, just found your post.

Diana Freeman was a beneficiary of Job Bull's will dated 1845, little bit of confusion as to whether it was Diana wife of Francis, or her daughter.

I have lots of info on Diana Bull's family if you go down that route.
