Suffolk / Re: Robert BOND 1790-1878
« on: Monday 21 February 11 21:42 GMT (UK)  »
Hello,

I have a Robert Bond (great, great grandfather) who was known as 'Waterloo Bond' due to his involvement in the battle where he sustained a leg injury but then lived to the ripe old age of 88! He died in 1876 on Christmas day (his birthday) He was buried with Military honours in St Mary's Churchyard in Yaxley Suffolk -  There is a report of the funeral in the Ipswich Journal dated 4th January 1879.

Don't know if this will help?

Chars.

Helo Lei,

Just seen your message - I am a descendant of Innocenzo Maspero via the Daniels family ( my great grandfather was Richard Innocenzo Daniels, son of Richard Daniels and Mary King Maspero) I am only a beginner at this geneaology stuff but would love to know more about this side of the family.
I have various reports of the family being in business - cheeesemongers, jewellers and painting and decorating! Not sure how much is true but I believe that they were originally in Stepney?
Would love to hear from you!   

Chars
