Dear All, I have been contacted by a lady who is descended from the Bournes, whose g-g-grandfather was Thomas Henry (known as Thomas) Bourne, b 1849 in Warehorne, died 1883 in Ashford, apparently dying a 'mysterious' death. Can anyone help? I have suggested she try local paper at Ashford for possible report of his death. Best wishes, Josie

To add to that last message, the lady's Woodchurch ancestors are James Bourne and Elizabeth Fullagar, so presumably Thomas Henry is a grandson/great-grandson of theirs. Josie -----
