James Henry Bosanquet died 1941 Adelaide

[CHERAN]

Hitting a brick wall with

South Australia:
James Henry Bosanquet......  From his death certificate
78 years old died 10th March 1941.....115 Payneham Road St Peters
born in Cornwall and had been in the commonwealth for 62 years was a widower
one living son

I believe his burial = West Terrace cemetery as Henry Bosanquet...

I then have  a Frances James Bosanquet who on Trove records for his marriage ( have this date) "only son of late Mr & Mrs. J. H. Bosanquet Late of Melbourne" and his death was in 1989

I have seen a James Henry Bosanquet on 1891 census  and "seaman" Birth Date:   10 Feb 1868
Birth Place:   Gwennap, Cornwall
First Service Date:   15 Mar 1883
First Ship Served On:   Ganges
Last Service Date:   17 Mar 1900

 but this record doesn't seem to fit as  the death record would say he came to Aus if I do the   maths correctly  in 1879...

I can't locate a Marriage, or an electoral roll or a birth of  Son Frances James Bosanequet

I have looked at other "Roots" forums re the Bosanquet name but these don't seem to lead anywhere....

Any info would be much appreciated on both James Henry (alias Henry) and Francis James

Can you clarify please, do you do you, or not have a marriage date for Frances James BOSANQUET?

Thanks Sue for looking but I did have that so sorry for the confusion as it is the engagement notice that records the Late Bosanquets.   I appreciate that you took the time to have another look at the trove record..   

this the engagement record

The Advertiser (Adelaide, SA : 1931 - 1954)  Thu 24 Dec 1942  Page 8  Family Notices

HOOKINGS—BOSANQUET.—The engagement is announced ot Laurel M, only daughter Mr. & Mrs. W J. Hookings. Barker rd., Prospect, to Francis J., only son of late Mr & Mrs. J. H. Bosanquet Late of Melbourne.

Not totally relevant, but there is a Bosanquet Avenue in Prospect.

I think in honour of Sth Aust 16th Governor

Sir Day Hort Bosanquet (1843-1923), admiral and governor

thanks anyway!

No connection? Bosanquet is not exactly a common name.
