Charles Francis Bush

[bkr188]

I am researching Charles Francis Bush born Marylebone 1st quarter of 1902.  Found this info. in Births index which gives the reference Vol.1a Page519.  There is no indication of the parents names.  I am fairly sure his mother is Louise Bush.  In the 1911 Census Charles Francis Bush is living with his mother Louise Thresa Bush and Franz Nickolay.  My main interest is to identify his father and to identify Louise Bush in the 1921 Census which I have been not been able to access.  Any help would be much appreciated.

In the 1901 census Charles Alfred Bush has the occupation of undertaker, aged 29. Really messy 1921 census finds him as a funeral worker aged 50.


His date of birth 17th October 1871, can be found in 1939 and is still an undertakers assistant

He died

Wow. Thank you soo much for your information.  It also confirms the fact that Louise was married as Bush, before becoming the "housekeeper" for Franz Nickolay.  He left his wife Susan sometime between the Census of 1901 and 1911, and he and Louise had the 2 boys, Lawrence and Philip.  The very new information is that of Harris.  Adds some more interest to the Franz Nickolay story.  Louise Bush was named as the beneficiary of his will, and I have not found any evidence of either of them gaining a divorce from their spouses.  Might you know how I can obtain the Census 1921 information?
Once again, thank you for your help.
