Bosley Family


By nick - Posted on 26 April 2009

Dear Sir,

I wonder if you can help me in any way, I am tracing my family tree and I have gone back to about 1800 my ancestors were all born lived and died in Thatcham but I cannot find any graves of my ancestors though I did find 2 on the Thatcham war memorial. Is there any way you could point me in the right direction.

Many Thanks
Paul Bosley

Dear Paul,

I can add your enquiry to out website and next newsletter if that is okay. It may generate more answers. I have heard of the Bosleys before. There are several in our grave records, the ones that are the closest match to the date you gave are:

  • Thatcham Cemetary
  • B5 I / EL / and / ARO / HENRY / fifth son of / DAVID JOHN and RACHEL BOSLEY / who died Aug 18th 1894 / aged 30 years / My sun went down while it was yet day.
  • B73 IELMO / ESTHER / the beloved wife of / GEORGE BOSLEY / born January 19th 1843 / fell asleep January 14th 1902 / Sleep on beloved sleep and take / thy rest / Lay down thy head upon thy / Saviour's breast / We love thee well but Jesus loves / thee best / Good night, Good night / also of GEORGE BOSLEY / husband of the above / who died Sep 8th 1929 / aged 87 years / God is Love

 

  • Churchyard
  • F36 [more here] I / ARO / CLARA / daughter of WILLIAM & ELIZABETH ANN WEBB / who died May 21st 1875 / also / CATHERINE MATILDA / wife of WILLIAM BOSLEY / daughter of JOHN EDWARD / & MATILDA MARY HAWKINS / died March 17th 1896 / aged 31 years.

Hope this helps, Nick
