Sammy - I know it was late last night, but where do you get other Bunyan's next door from? From the top of the page it's Govier (4) Chisholm (5) Bunyon (7) Sweeney (7) Ewins (5). Jools

I know where I saw more Bunyan's now..... In the list below I looked at the image for Emily S, being a similar age to the Sophia that we're after, the neighbours are transcribed as BANGON, but they look like more Bunyon's/Bunyan's. Sorry to confuse :-\ Bangon, Alice 8 St James, London Daughter St Anne London Bangon, Annie 12 Lambeth, Surrey Daughter St Anne London Bangon, Beatrice 6 St. Anne, London Daughter St Anne London Bangon, John 15 St. Anne, London Son St Anne London Bangon, John G 54 St Martins, London Head St Anne London Bangon, Louisa 31 St James, London Wife St Anne London Bangon, Louisa 14 Lambeth, Surrey Daughter St Anne London Bangon, William 2 St. Anne, London Son St Anne London Bunyon, Annie 52 Greenwich, Kent Wife St Anne London *Bunyon, Emily S 19 Middlesex Daughter St Anne London* Bunyon, Florence 16 Middlesex Daughter St Anne London Bunyon, John 56 Middlesex Head St Anne London

ANOTHER QUESTION FOR SHAN....... Any idea who the elder daughter's married? They may have had the younger children to stay. I think we will find these two children through the names of the adults they are presumably with, I'm sure between us, we have tried all combinations for Sophia & James, so we could do with locating Emily or John's parents, or Emma & Emily the eldest daughter's, who may or may not be married.

Possible birth for John Bunyan Snr. (emily's father in law) Births Dec 1846 Bunyan John Richard St Pancras 1 253 Births Mar 1847 Bunyan John Thomas Clerkenwell 3 107 I'm inclined to favour the St Pancras one. Off to see if I can find him on 1871 census. UPDATE - Why am I not surprised??? Can't find him on 1871. Only one Bun??n I can see of roughly the right age and he's born Brighton. AAAAAAAAAAAAGH

Jools.....don't know if you've given up, if you have never mind. If not, the birth you have for Emily's FIL is not early enough, Emily's husband John was 45 in 1891, so that's HIS birth you have. I'm looking at MALKIN now, there are lots!
