My husband's grandmother was a Bumford (Myrtle). Her father was Thomas Bumford, a Civil War veteran. Thomas was born 7/22/1843, the son of Richard and Anne Bumford. He married Ann Humphreys (daughter of William & Mary Humphreys) on 11/7/1867. They had 8 children, and just after the birth of their youngest, Annie (6/5/1891), Ann(his wife) died. Thomas remarried on July 3,1895, to Jennie A. Walters (she had never been married before). There were no children to this marriage. Thomas died 1/28/1928. His first wife Ann died 6/24/1891 at the age of 42. (She was born 4/13/1849). They lived in "Cambria" and in Ebensburg, PA (Cambria County). Thomas' and Ann's children were William (8/9/1868 - 8/8/1945), Ida (1871-1886), George (1873-1957), Cora (1875-?), Myrtle (1883-1977), Webster (1885-?), Burley (1888-?) and Annie (6/5/1891-3/17/1922). All birthdates for the first 5 siblings were obtained from a family Bible, as was the wedding date for Thomas Bumford and Ann (Humphreys) Bumford; also the marriage date for Thomas and Jennie, except for the year, which appears to be 1895. Thomas, Ann and Jennie are all buried in Lloyd Cemetery in Ebensburg, PA, along with many of the Humphreys. Myrtle married William Stormer and they lived just outside of Ebensburg most of their lives. They had 9 children, all deceased now. Dolly, the oldest daughter, just died in 2009, just weeks before turning 100 yrs. old.

We have written a mass amount of informo about our Bomford family from Eire. Would very much like to know why for many centuries I see your Bumford name as bomford? Also if anyone has done a family tree? I am interested to know who this Oliver Bomford is who married a Catherine Bomford in the sixteenth century.

Joseph Bumford

I am looking for Joseph BUMFORD, poss. from Darlaston, stafford, or English Combe, Somerset. He married Mary PERRINS 27 Dec 1804, St Lawrence's Church, Darlaston. They were very wealthy even owning a pew in the church.

They had two children, Sarah Perrins BUMFORD, chr 6 Aug 1806, Darlaston, and Marianne Parker BUMFORD, chr 1 Nov 1812, Darlaston.

Joseph died sometime after 1817 in a mining accident, he wasn't actually a miner he was helping out because of the shortage of workers during the war.

Sarah married John TAYLOR, 3 June 1833 at Tipton, Stafford, they had at least four sons. Sarah was very wealthy and owned much property. Mary Ann married Aaron BEECH 1 July 1832 at Walsall, Stafford, they had 10 children.

Does any of this sound familiar to any one?

Thanks

Cindy
