 Generation Three


     11.  John BOND was christened on 17 Oct 1790 at St Benedict,
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,
                 Cambridge; of Mount Pleasant Rd.53

I still can't work out why the spelling of John William should have changed from BOND to BOUD!

Holy Forest, BB!  Look at all dem trees!!!!  How you do dat? ;D

Wow!  Thanks so much!  That's amazing to see that maybe there's some hope for my Bonds.  I notice you don't have the kids for Joseph and Frances but that's probably where I sort of come in.  They have not been easy to find (just because I'm stuck over here in NZ), nor have the Prigg family who all decided to die before the 1841 Census (typical).  However I shall gratefully accept the information and chew on it.

I have no idea why the name changed! ???  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?

Still...you rock, man!!! ;D

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

                 1840 at Cambridge.12

                 Clement, Cambridge.13,14

                  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
                  St Mary the Great, Cambridge; of Market Hill,
                  Cambridge.22,23
         9 viii. Caroline BOND was christened in 1837 at St Mary the
                  Great, Cambridge; of Market Hill, Cambridge, aged 1
                  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

Evening, Just come across your post from back in 2008 re George Prague/Prange LEACH.  Hope you can help me.

George is my Grt, Grt, Grt Grandfather on my Dads side, his Daughter Eva is my Grt GrandMother.

I know he married Sophia in India in 1853 but know little else about him.

Do you know if he served in the military?  I would love to know what you have on him.....  :)

Best wishes

Dear, dear CPH,

CUZ!!!!!!!!  Hugs to you cousin of mine!  Wonderful to see you pop up  ;D !

I'm SO excited to 'meet' you!  You have to tell me if you are from a Niblett or a Thurston.  I have been trying to follow them all over the place from Eva but it hasn't been easy.

Sorry to say that George is still my main mystery man.  Supposedly born in 1808 and supposedly with that surname.  Yes he was definitely in the army but I need to find his army file first before cracking that nut.  My notes have him dying on 26 July 1859 and being buried the same day at Fort William, India.  Sophia lived until 21 Nov 1901 and she was buried at Fort William the next day.

Seriously I have no concrete evidence of George's existence other than family notes on dates.  I don't know for sure about his parentage or where he was born as nothing as been proven.  As already noted on this post there is every possibility that George was a Prigg instead of a Leach and this has somehow morphed into the Prague Leach thing.  I'm not giving up but it's going to take time to sort him out....only been 10 years so who's counting? ;D

One story I have been told is that the family were well off and that when Eva's sister Mary Ann married my great great grandfather she was said to be marrying beneath her station and she was cut off  :(.  Do you have any passed down stories??

Please keep posting.  When you get to three posts you can contact me directly using the little green scroll which sits under your user name and have private conversations.

I have three Niblett kids and five Thurston kids.  No death for Robert Rump Thurston and have no deaths for the original kids except for three of the Thurston's.  Have some second and third generation offshoots for Thurstons and Donlans and the odd Niblett.  And definitely no photos of George or Sophia.

Feel free to ask any questions or add anything you wish!

Cheers

Evening Bunny, Thanks for getting back to me.  I come from the Robert Rump Thurston/Eva Leach side.   :)

My Nana (Winifred Donlan) was the Daughter of Francies Thurston (Robert & Evas child) & Frederick Donlan.
George P Leach is turing into a bit of a challenge !!  Would love to know more about him...so mysterious! ???

My Dad was born in India and the family came to live in the UK in 1949 when my Dad was 12 years old.

Hi Catherine,

Just one more post from you and our private line (the green scroll thing) will be open for action  ;D !

Aw, so lovely to know where you fit in the scheme of things.  I've worked out that we are fourth cousins (giggle).  It's fantastic that you are working on the tree and tickling your dad's memory buds.  I really love hearing snippets from my dad and uncle when I ring to tell them the latest tree stuff.

Never fear - we will get to the bottom of George!  Somehow.

Maybe you can help me.  Do you know where Robert Rump Thurston died?  I don't have any data for him on his death.  I have Eva's but not his.  I have to assume it was in India as the whole family seemed to stick around there for a while but there is no record I can find.

Does your Dad remember anything about the Nibletts?

Squeak if you need any help on any family members.  I'm very nosey!   ;D ;D

Cheers and hugs

Evening Bunny.....here we go with my 3rd post!!

I too have not found Roberts death certificate yet, he has to be out there somewhere!!!

My Dad remembers the Nibletts and playing with the 2 boys, funny but he had forgotten about them until I mentioned the name and you could see the lightbulb switch on !!! :D

Hope to message you again soon with more info, hope you will do the same

Night night!!

Dear Catherine.

PM coming your way!  That means a 'personal message' and that's when you use the green scroll.  You'll get a slightly different email notifying you of the message.  Just click on it like usual and it will take you to your personal message centre.  Just use it like any other email system as it is private.

Keep pressing your Dad's buried memory buttons!!!  He just may have the key to us at least finding Robert Thurston's resting place.  I have to assume that he would have died in India.  It might be a big ask to see if your Dad remembers the country Robert would have died in.

Another person I can't trace is Gertrude Mabel Vere Thurston.  Have birth and then christening and then POOF!  Into thin air she goes!  Don't know if your Dad remembers much about his uncles and aunts.  I do have some data but when you are a genealogist one of the satisfying things is being able to hatch, match and dispatch people.  Feel like one is being gruesomely tidy or something. ;D

Alrighty,  I have a PM to send you.

Cheers
