Bosankoe/bosanquets

[jduggan]

Hi
I am tracing my Bosanquet/Bosankoe family history and I know a family lived in St Helier in King Street Jersey and they were cigar makers, can any one fill in any more details, the son was an Edmund Bosanquet and was a muscian.

Thanks for the prompt reply, yes they are the ones, rather unusual trade as the children made cigars too, not sure why they went to Jersey, Elizabeth Jessy Bosankoe was my great nan and they lived in Jersey for a while, then returned to London, she married a James Pemell who was a cabinet maker, are you related to this family Jayne

[suzard]

I am not related - just happy to do look ups

Cigar making wasn't that unusual a trade

1841 John Bosanquet was an apprentice cigar maker - then he became a cigar maker and he must have moved to Jersey between the birth of Joseph and the birth of Edmond and he became a cigar manufacturer with 2 apprentices (I suspect the 2 apprentices were his children :Mary Ann and John)

Is there any parrticular information you are looking for??

to save us looking up info you already have?


Suz

[suzard]

It looks like John had the middle name of Richard??

Do you require his baptism and marriage reg??

Hi I have a lot of the details, but if you are interested in look ups the Pemell side of the family,are very interesting and the Bosankoes in Cornwall  thanks for your time, Jayne

[suzard]

I still am not sure what type of information you are looking for?

You original post asks "can you fill me in on any more details"?

We need to know what information you have already -or any specific details you are looking for??

Where do the Cornwall Bosanquets fit in - I can't find a connection so far?

What is the connection with the "pemell" side
