There are quite a few people on Ancestry following Rose's family- but most of them have the wrong parents for Alfred- it looks as though they've all copied each other.

Alfred was living with his family in 1881 in Lower Lamb Street- so I think this article refers to him:

Bristol Mercury - Monday 11 April 1881

A NARROW ESCAPE
Whilst PC Lear was on duty at the river police station, Price Street Bridge, he heard the cries of a child. On going to the spot he discovered that a boy, named Alfred Bush, aged three years, living in Lamb Street, St Augustine's, had accidentally fallen into the water from a landing stage. The constable went down to the stage and dragged the child out of the water as he was sinking. He was apparently uninjured by the immersion.

oh thank you Austin this is great news you have helped me so much

every thing is falling in to place now only thing I don't understand is on the 1911 census it shows ALBERT HENRY BUSH AGE 2 not sure who he is or where he fits in to ROSES tree is this her brother?? did he die young like violets twin ??

Albert Henry 31/12/1908 christened 20/1/1909 died 1981.
He married 1938 Annis louisa Burley

Annis l Burley born 1914 mum nee ( Hale) she died 2001.

Maryb.

Hi Mary this Albert Henry can not be the same as I have on the census 1911 because he was born 1909 not 1908 if if was a mistake in dates on the census he would born the same year as his sister Florence as she was born in 1908

marriage of Sara father ???
