Hi I have just joined the site in the hopes that someone can help me with information about a son of Benjamin John Bunt married to Catherine Ann Pope or Apps.
The Son I am looking for is William Pope Bunt who left Cornwall for South Africa, I would like to know more about his family in South Africa specially the children born to him by Ethel Mary Hick. I have their marriage as 1900 Truro Cornwall I think William Pope Bunt was born in 1880 in Gwennap in the Methodist church.
Thanks

I can see 2 male children born in Redruth 1903. MMN Hick
BUNT, WILFRID ARTHUR 1903 M Quarter in REDRUTH Volume 05C Page 162
BUNT, WILLIAM JERALD 1903 M Quarter in REDRUTH Volume 05C Page 162
1905 Mary travelled to the Cape in 1905 with 1 child - Master Hick.
Looks as though they were twins and 1 child dies aged 1yr.

Thanks Pam for info. Now my next question is what happened to William Jerald Bunt in South Africa ? I have a man by the name of Gerald Bunt same birth date and place as William Jerald Bunt. Did William Jerald Bunt change his name to Gerald Bunt? And what happened to him in South Africa?

My post #3 should have read Master Bunt not Hick.
