I was contacted recently by someone who turns out to be distantly related. He has posed as question that I'm still scratching my head over and I would welcome any suggestions. William BUSHELL b 1864 married Sarah DICKENSON b.abt 1765. They had numerous children, the last in March 1802. I have William on the 1851 census living with his daughter and her family with his occupation shown as Milkman. I can't find him on an 1841 census but there is a William Bushell b abt 1765 also shown as a Milkman but married to the wonderfully named Pleasant Bushell. If Susannah is reading this: as you know, William BUSHELL is the brother of Margaret BUSHELL (later FOAD) I believe that Sarah died in 1840 so if its "my" William then he would have had to married Pleasant within a year of her death; a bit unusual for a 75 year old but, equally, how many elderly Milkmen called William Bushell could there be in one small town? The answer, of course, is in Pleasant & William's marriage record and that's where I have drawn a total blank. There were two women of the right age called Pleasant and one married a Henry Bushell (who I do not have listed as a relative of William) in 1808 but the is no trace of the other one getting married. Did William marry Henry's widow? Help! Chris
