Sorry, I was away on holiday when this message came through

Thats why I have just found it unanswered on the Sussex Boards

Hope I have made amends since with Borer and Boorer Information

Hi Chris,
You sure have. The gravestone details are of immense value as this family were BOORER in the 1881 and I would not have in all certainty made the connection. I tend to check all spellings but it is nice to know they are suspects for a name variation..  That makes about 25 family groups,that have done it without any help from transcriber's errors.

As you appreciate with a one name ,I already have a great deal of information and I do not want anyone just looking, but I will not be slow in coming forward with more precise requests.

Thanks 
Grandad james.

Hi Grandad James

Whilst searching through the 1841 census of Rotherfield for some other names - I found this:

HO107/ 1117/ Sched 36/ Page 14 - Boars Head Inn, Rotherfield

BOARER Moses, 50, Publican
              Mary, 50
              Matilda, 20

All born in County

Looking at the enumerators return - cant really make my mind up whether it is BOARER or BOORER

Hope it is another one for your One Name Study

Hi Chris,
There were several Moses all of that era and the information regarding the address and his wife and dau will be a definate help to seperate them.

I suspect he is the ancestor of a couple of lads that went out to Australia to the goldfields.

They will always get a good home here.

and I think it was probably BOARER as my suspects  children were Boarer and Boorer.

Still looking for things heraldic but having trouble with the transport.
                     

Cheers Gj.

Glad to be of help

Wish I could help with the transport - but living in Hastings - tis a bit difficult.

Will still keep my eye out for your chosen one name study

Hello, I dont know if you heard but James Ellis sadly died a while  ago  and I have registered for the one name Boorer and variants study at the request of his widow. Ive been trying to reconstruct the trees that people kindly have let me have details of.  I can tell you more offline about what happened go to the ONS and you will see you can email me from there if you wish. Thanks

Hi there
My family line includes the 18th century BOWRAHs of Lingfield and East Grinstead.  I believe the two names (Bowrah & Boorer) to be from the same origins.  I think you will find that there is already a one name study under the Bowrah name.

Thanks for your message. I was in touch years ago  with the other person doing the Bowra one he didnt find any connection with the other variants at that time. So I am doing my best to try carrying on the work of the late James and have much information and some trees  from previous contacts with him and would  welcome any more with the same interests.  My own connection is with one of the Lingfield trees there are at least 4 separate families there with the name so far unconnected.
