Hello there, this is my first posting to the list. My BOND family came from St Austell, Cornwall, England. William 1789-1854 and his three sons were all in the Coastguard service and wandered far and wide round the southern and eastern coast of England and I am hoping to find some descendants of his sons - who were: 1. George BOND born 1810 m.1) Harriet MACEY, m.2) Martha --, m. 3) Annie -- of the Isles of Scilly. Known issue: William George bapt 1835, Richard Macey bapt.1837, Elizabeth bapt 1839 died infant & Eliza bapt 1841. George last heard of in Plymouth St Andrew, Devon, ENG in 1881. 2. Richard BOND bapt 1815 m. Rosa --. Known issue: Rosa born 1845, Richard b.1848 and Georgina E. b.1860. Richard last heard of in New Shoreham, Sussex, ENG, in 1861. 3. William BOND bapt 1822 m. Emma --. Known issue: George born 1850 and Fred b.1859. William last heard of in Gorleston, Suffolk, ENG, in 1881. I am descended from their youngest sister Jane Ellen BOND who married Thomas Thomas CHARLES and came to Australia in 1863. Judith
