Buswell
« on: Tuesday 28 July 09 20:23 BST (UK) »
My great grandfather Robert Buswell was born in Pimlico around 1840. I have his army records from the National Archives . also from the 1851 and 1861 census . My problem is that I cannot find a birth marriage or death certificte for him. He was married in Edinburgh around 19870 and died between the 1891 and 1901 census in Scotland. No sign of him in either the English records or on Scotland's peopl. Any advice would be gratefully received.
cheers

Hi Les

How do you know that he was born in Pimlico?

There is a Robert Buswell in the births index, Jul-Sep 1839 Brixworth 15 222, but Brixworth is in Northamptonshire.

All the best

The 1881 census (Glasgow) shows that Robert and Jessie/Janet had a daughter before they had Robert, namely Mary Ann (10 b England in 1881).

Her likely birth:

Birth Sep qtr 1870  
 
Buswell  Mary Ann J    
Farnham  2a 90

Have you got "Jennet" and Mary Ann in Aldershot in the 1871 census? RG10/817/44/23.

Does the information as to the date/place of the marriage (1870, Edinburgh) come from one of the children's birth certificates?

And what is the source of the information that he died in Scotland?

No did not have that but that would be logical as he was still in the army - have these children later in the 1881 census in Glasgow. Thank you will check that out

Childrens birth places came from the census - wedding date and place is family folklore - he is said to have been married in Edinburgh castle by his commanding ofiicer before leaving with his regiment
