Hi

Hoping someone can help.

My great grandfather was Charles Henry Kingwell who was born in 1844 in Plymouth and arrived in Australia in approximately 1872.

His parents were Richard Bunce Kingwell and Sarah Bulley.

1851 Census
Living at 6 Coxside Green Plymouth
Richard B ---- Age 35
Sarah -------- Age 34
Charles H ---- Age 6
William J ----- Age 6
Ellen J -------- Age 1

Have purchased parish register entries from the DFHS and think i have managed to find the names of Richard's parents and possible siblings.

Richard Bunce KINGWELL Christened 30th August 1816
Parents John and Charlotte

Other children with same parents
Charlotte Christened 27th April 1814
Jane Elizabeth Christened 12th September 1822
Charles Wyngett Christened 13th June 1828
Ellen Christened 1st October 1829

Marriage - John Kingwell and Charlotte Wynggett 11th December 1803

I have Richard's death certificate so am sure that his father's name was John.

Have found a possible entry in the 1881 census for Richard living with a brother Frederick who does not appear in the entries that i have.

Does anyone recognise this possible family group? Can anyone help me find more information?

TIA

Jaki
