101 In the 1851 Census there is only one David Boyton in the right place, with age correct for IGI christening date. And his wife is Sarah (though her birthplace is given as Shoreditch), and son David is the correct age. Boyton, David (I72)
 
102 In the 1871 census he describes his occupation as "Solicitor & Occupying 230 Chasses(?) of land Employing 6 men & 3 boys" Weston, Arthur (I57)
 
103 In the 1891 census all the family is said to have been born in Pembrokeshire but lived in Cardigan. In 1901 her mother Anne was dead, and whoever filled in the form said the children were born in Cardigan. However the two counties seem very flexible - on her birth certificate Sarah is said to have been born in Llantood, Pembrokeshire but registered in Cardigan.  Family F34
 
104 In the 1891 census this couple (Mary Ann Davies parents) are on the same sheet as her husband William Thomas's parents. Family F297
 
105 In the 1891 census this couple (William Thomas's parents) are on the same sheet as his wife Mary Ann Davies' parents. Family F285
 
106 In the 1901 census Herbert is living with his mother, with his children, and there is no sign of Kate. Died or absconded? Family F195
 
107 In the 1901 census, after Evan Thomas's mother Gwenllian died, his sister Mary and her husband Evan Williams moved in and in 1901 Evan Williams was the head of the household. He was a collier and Evan Thomas still farmed the land. Evan Williams spoke both Welsh and English, but Evan Thomas spoke only Welsh, so this might account for the former dealing with official forms like notification of death and census. Thomas, Evan (I849)
 
108 In the 1911 census he said he was married for 52 years, had 11 children of which 2 died.
The census was filled in by A E Thompson(?) because he was blind - but is alone in the household. Ellen had only just died. 
Hughes, Noah (I672)
 
109 In the 1911 census she said she had 14 children in 44 years of marriage, and 3 of them died Family F25
 
110 In the 1911 census the child of the correct age is called Clarence! No doubt they decided Jack was preferable! So that must be why I couldn't find his birth. Boyton, Clarence (I294)

Chamarette, Garnet Mervyn Thompson (I119)
 
112 Inherited 900 acres of land in village Kapsi gram Malkhed, and another 900 acres of land in an adjoining village Saharanpur, both in the district Yavatmal (Yeotmal). The intention was to develop a race horse ranch and sell them in Bombay, Poona, and Hyderabad (About 1900)

He 'died young' - maybe in his 50s since he
had 8 children, the first when he was 34. 
Chamarette, Charles Arthur (I192)
 
113 It was a double wedding with her brother William Andrew Murray. Family F42
 
114 It was a double wedding with her sister Florence Matilda. Note that Winifred married her cousin Whitelaw, and they were both 28 years old Family F37
 
115 It was a double wedding with her sister Winifred Chamarette who married her cousin Whitelaw Chamarette. Family F78
 
116 J W on his son's birth certificate. He is shown on his son's marriage certificate as Thomas William - might just be an error as that is the name of the son. Moore, J W (I2092)
 
117 Joan oldest, then Ian 11 years later, and Bernie 9 years later Family F432
 
118 Kerry Taylor found Florence and the two daughters going from UK to India in 1930 and in the grandmothers will in 1928 she has them living in Belgium Kirschner, Florence Mabel (I774)
 
119 Killed at Arras in the First World War Boyton, Horace (I1598)
 
120 Killed in a jousting tournament. de Warenne, William (I1785)
 
121 Lancaster (Milton Poyntz) also says that W A Thompson's uncle was Major Poyntz, so this would be the origin of that as a middle name. Norman Poyntz Palmer Chamarette has also mentioned a connection to a Major Poyntz. Note also that it makes it likely that W A Thompson's wife was a Poyntz - Major Poyntz being her brother. Family F30
 
122 Lancaster says that W A Thompson was half brother to Sir Richmond Campbell Shakespear (cf). It is difficult to see how this could be, since Sir Richmond's mother Emily started producing children by John Talbot Shakespear in 1806, and died in 1824, a year before her husband. However, Sir Richmond married a Thompson, so possibly W A was his brother-in-law, and family legend had twisted it slightly before it got to Lancaster. Family F30
 
123 Lived at Ladyfield House, Mortimer, Hampshire, England Worrall, Peter Gordon Daisley (I3)
 
124 Look at the printout for her sisters wedding - her wedding is there I think, so enter it here Bowen, Emma Veronica (I1318)
 
125 Marriage date comes from number of years married in 1911 census Family F411
 
126 Miss Davis and Mr John Davis travelled cabin class on the Camden from London to Sydney in 1836.
The ship was advertised to leave Gravesend 10th February, picking up passengers at Portsmouth on 18th February. However, the arrivals list states that she left (the Downs) on the 22nd so there was some delay.It arrived at Port Jackson, Sydney on 2nd June.
The names are not uncommon, but it fits pretty well.  
Family F381
 
127 Montague doesn't seem to have waited long after his wife Mary died before having children by Grace - no marriage found yet. Family F145
 
128 NB He could havs enlited for 12 years in 1847. See this site
http://wapedia.mobi/en/British_Army_during_the_Victorian_Era
This is for the Brotish Army, rather than the East India Company Army, but no doubt, to get recruits, they would have introduced the same short term enlistments.  
Weston, John (I35)
 
129 Newton also says 'My grandfather arrived in India 1856 just before the Mutiny in 1857. Married shortly after he arrived to an anglo indian girl Mary Anne Maine - an old anglo indian family from the Central Provinces.'
He got the date of arrival in India wrong, but the information on Mary is likely correct.
Also the family was in Kamptee when Newton's father was born in 1862. 'Later the regiment was stationed at Jalna and then at Secunderabad where the family stayed. When his period of service in the army was completed his Commanding Officer strongly recommended him for a commision in HEH the Nizam's forces, and he stayed there the remains of his active life.'  
Weston, John (I35)
 
130 Norman Chamarette says (see his letter to Pamela) that his father Arthurs's first wife died at the birth of her second child Flossie (Winifred). Then his aunt Jane looked after Beryl and Flossie for five years until Arthur married Norman's mother Mary Fallon.  Chamarette, Jane Amelia Clara (I326)
 
131 Norman Chamarette says he had a wonderful military funeral at Hyderabad. Chamarette, Arthur John Andrew (I322)
 
132 Norman Chamarette says he was a Colonel, seconded from the Irish Guards to the Sepoy Army of the Nizam of Hyderabad. Fallon, Colonel William (I33)
 
133 Norman Chamarette says that Edwin was the Chief Permanent Way Inspector of the State Railways in Hyderabad. They lived at a Railway House in Darmabad. Later (I'm not sure where this information came from) Edwin's Aunt Emily got him the job in Jamshedpur, as Superintendent of the Railways for Tata Steel. Weston, Edwin Ash (I113)
 
134 Norman remembers that when he was a child - maybe 5 or 6 - his half sister Beryl was like a second mother to him. She made sure he got to school ( on his pony) and supervised his Ayah 'to do all the things children are in need of; such as, how to tie shoe(boot) laces. I wore Eton collars to school and Sunday school. I presume you know what these broad high collars are like and we as children disliked them, often hid them on the very top shelf of the wardrobe.'
He says we (eight of them ) never thought of Beryl as a HALF sister.
'We were a very loving quarrel-free family, with every comfort imaginable, in that day of the 'British Raj' alas now gone for ever. Our garden grew mangoes, pomegranites, custard apples, mulberries, citrus fruits, almond tree, berries of exotic kind and guavas. Needless to say I climbed treea and ate the fruit in the branches! We had pets; dogs, cats, ponies, donkeys, doves, pigeons and more! Even had a rail-track at the back used when 'The Nest' (our home) was in building. My Mum (nee Mary Louise Fallon)was always known as 'Birdie" hence 'The Nest"! We had various carriages and large horses. (No cars) - No telephone - No electric (or gas) lights.'
He goes on to say that despite these lacks it was 'as Shangri La'. 
Chamarette, Norman Palmer Poyntz (I110)

139 Of Steeple Aston, Oxfordshire, England Lampet, Rev Lionel (I2060)
 
140 On the web site for Osmania Medical College in Hyderabad, there is a bit of history. When it was Hyderabad Medical School, teaching in Urdu, in 1888 a Chloroform Commission was set up (with the Nizam's blessing) to study the effect of Chloroform on dogs.They did pioneer work, and one of the commission members was Mr A Chamarette. The leader of the commission was Dr Laurie.The Medical School was set up in 1846 by the Nizam, deliberately using Urdu to encourage native doctors, from the sound of it.
Since Arthur was Assistant Surgeon HH Nizam's service in 1887 when he married, this is almost certain to be him. He would have been 27 years old, so quite junior.
Arthur Mitchell (other researcher) confirms this. 
Chamarette, Arthur John Andrew (I322)
 
141 Peter Breeze found a marriage for her 1905 Southwark Jne Qtr - she'd be 30. Possible, but no way to tell until can consult records. Boyton, Emma E (I303)
 
142 Place name Kammamett
(1) In http://dsal.uchicago.edu/maps/gazetteer/index.html there's an old map showing Khammamet (I think) west of Secunderabad in the province (?) of Warangal.
(2) In http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~poyntz/India/maps.html#area Constables 1893 area maps there's an index of place names which gives a district and town of Kamamet (in Haid.)
In current day India I can find two possibilities -
(3) Kamarhati, but that is a suburb of Calcutta in West Bengal, which seems unlikely;
(4) Kamareddi, which is maybe 70 miles North of Secunderabad.
 
Weston, Edwin Ash (I113)
 
143 Possibly Lucet was her second name not Sweet - difficult to decipher. Also, no second name is given on the marriage entry, though it ties up for age with the death certificate.
Her husband Peter was still alive when she died - retired Civil Engineer. 
Turnbull, Amelia Sweet (I62)
