The Bosence family originate from Cornwall, many from Sancreed, Madron, and Paul, although prior to 1066 they may well have come from France. All Bosence's are related, my aim to have all Bosence's and name variants (and there are many) Bossence and Boscence to name but two, in one family tree. There are three pronunciations for the name in use today, in England Bosence has the emphasis on the second syllable, in Australia the "o" is pronounced as in "bolt" by Bossence and as in "both" by Boscence. The name Bosence among the Cornish is said to mean "secluded dwelling". If you can assist me with my dream please feel free to contact me, no matter how small the information is, it all helps. Thank you to all who have helped with contributions of family information in the past. Regards Gavin A Bosence

Further to my message of April 9/03, I have been able to trace my line of the IVES family back to William Ives, who was born in the village of Wilby, Northamptonshire, England around 1607. He arrived in the New England States, USA in 1628 or so. Can anyone help me go back further than 1607?

Doug Ives in Antigonish, Nova Scotia Canada at 21:09:40 Wednesday April 9 2003
I am trying to trace the IVES family that lived in Northamptonshire. Isaac Ives was born in the USA in 1747 and immigrated to Prince Edward Island, Canada. I believe his parents came to the USA from the UK.

Elizabeth Hannaford in Adelaide, South Australia at 23:40:03 Friday March 14 2003
A great site! My Cornish ancestor is John Stephens b. 1854, Germoe. He arrived in South Australia in 1877, along with a brother, Samuel (chr 1856, Germoe) and sister, Sophia (chr. 1862, Germoe). His parents were Thomas Stephens (chr 1831), copper miner and farmer of Germoe/Breage and Eliza Williams. He also had siblings Mary Williams Stephens, Elizabeth Jane Stephens and Thomas James Stephens who we presume remained in Cornwall. Perhaps we may be able to contact long lost Cornish cousins?

I am looking for information on my Quaker WILLIAMS ancestors from Falmouth and Perranarworthal. Michael Williams married Anne ARTHUR in Bodmin in about 1800. Michael was a manager of the Cornish Bank. Their son John Williams 1815-1883 was a manager of the Perran foundry, a manager of the Cornish Bank and a timber agent. He married Eliza LEACH and Elizabeth Emily KRABBE. John and Eliza Williams had two sons, John Michael 1845-1879, the first engineer on an ocean liner, who married Cyllene WILSON and Edwin, a school master, who married Ellen PHILLIPS. John Williams' sister Louisa married Captain Thomas HOSKING, a ship owner. For many years the Williams family lived at Bellevue, 31 Trevethan Road in Falmouth. Does any of this sound familiar?

A First Class site, well done. I am researching the Royal Berkshire Regiment and it is my intention to produce an article for the Regimental Journal about a little known incident. It relates to the deployent of 300 men of the Regiment to Newlyn to assist the local Police during trouble between the local fishermen and boats from Lowestoft in 1896. I have a very limited amount of information from Regimental Records. Can anybody point me in the right direction to obtain more in -depth information. Better still does any photographic record exist ? Many thanks Mac
