Hi there

I'm looking for the marriage details of Frances Sarah WILSON to Francis Charles A'COURT who apparently married in Bound Brook, Somerset, New Jersey 27th April, 1870. Information sourced in a newspaper item relating to their golden wedding anniversary.

Many thanks   :)

I have Jane's death printout - copy of original death entry - which gives maiden name and number and gender of children alive at time of death

Thanks for confirming William's birth  :). Interesting that he wasn't born in Guernsey. I don't have any birth certificates for any of the other children

Hi there

Definitely him in Guernsey in 1851. I have him living in Ilchester, Somerset in 1841 with his first wife, Susan COATE.

Yes three more children were born in NZ after their arrival.

Yes you are correct about the information on the obituary. And that was really confusing because the only BISHOP on the passenger list was Thomas, his wife, three sons and two daughters which complete threw me. Other people have Thomas Bishop senior dying in Somerset. But anyway...

I had my brother's DNA done and and found the connection to the second family. Few people have made this link. Unfortunately the Balclutha cemetery records were lost in a fire in 1911.

I've got all children but the missing daughter who came out on the Chili in 1860.

I am looking for the marriage and baptisms relating to this couple in Guernsey from 1851 through to 1860.

Thomas Bishop (wheelwright and widower) can be found living in St Martin, Guernsey in the 1851 census with his daughter, Caroline and two sons, Thomas and James. All are born in Somerset. Also in the residence is a Mary Ann Webb and her son, William.

According to someone else and not substantiated, Thomas married a Cornish girl, Jane Curnow on the 21st July, 1853 in St Andrews Church, St Peter Port. The couple then went on to have at least three children - Amelia Jane (1854 and on FamilySearch), William (1858, no record) and one other daughter (no record) and whose name I cannot find.

Thomas and his family, including his two sons, Thomas and James from an earlier marriage, then came to New Zealand in 1860.

I would vey much appreciate any help that anyone can give with regards to this couple and their children.

Regards
Robyn from New Zealand

Hi

No he's not a Cherry. Mary Cherry came from Ireland in the 1800s to NZ and married a man called Chatfield. My father-in-law's mother was a Chatfield.

His name is Cedric Taylor
