[behindthefrogs]

The following children all born in Desborough are missing from their father Richard Buswell's home in 1841 I need help in finding them.

Thomas Buswell 18
John Buswell 16
George Buswell 15
Mary Buswell 13 she probably died as her sister Maryanne 11 is with her father.
Charlotte Buswell 9
Esme Buswell 3 a boy

Many thanks
David

I know that John and I am fairly sure that George and Charlotte were alive in 1841.

Looks like most of them died

Desborough burials from BTs:

George Buswell, infant, bur 6 April 1826
Mary Ann Buswell, infant, bur 8 May 1828
Esme Buswell, 1 (small pox), bur 27 jun 1837
Charlotte Buswell, 6, bur 24 May 1838
Thomas Buswell, 17, bur 15 May 1839
Esme Buswell, 1, bur 3 Dec 1839
Elizabeth Buswell, 41, bur 25 Sep 1840

That just leaves John...

Thank you Byron.

Its always very disappointing to find that most of a family that you are looking for has in fact died but I suppose it was a fact of life in those days.  I know John was alive I just haven't located him in 1841.  He later marries his deceased brother's wife which besides being illegal in those days caused all sorts of problems tracing the family as the children were very confused as to who was their father.
