Hi, I am trying to find a Roger Bunting to get in contact with members of my father’s family. My father, Stanley WRAGG, was born near Loughton, Essex, he had two brothers, Edward and Dennis, and a sister Elsie.
Elsie married a Robert Bunting who, I believe, was in the merchant navy. They lived in Chatham, Kent. Both are now decesaed. They had two children, Roger and Linda. Linda may be married and I have no idea what her married name might be.
There is a chance that I can find some trace of Roger Bunting who would have been born a little before me, probably around 1950, in or near Chatham.
I would appreciate any information that your society and members could provide.
Thank you in anticipation
Gordon Wragg

Good morning, well it must be morning somewhere, and there may be buntings singing, probably in the shower, rather than our small feathered friends outside.
Well hopefully that woke you up!
I would like to introduce myself, the name, well Bunting of course. Oh you wanted to know the other name, ok, so we have John. So to you that’s John Bunting (sounds like as good an alias as John Smith).
To make it easier though, you can call me just John, that means “John” not “Just John”. Well, except you over there he says, whilst pointing finger, your my wife, you can call me for dinner too 🙂
Now once you lot stop rolling around the floor in laughter, we can get back to the matter in hand.
Following on from the recent request from Jerry for someone to take over as webmaster, I threw my hypothetical hat into the ring. and am currently in the process of learning the ropes. In time I hope to be able to fill Jerry’s shoes, I just hope he takes a size 10! Having only recently taking up membership, I am unsure of how many years Jerry has had the privelege to be webmaster, but I am sure you will agree with me that he has done a sterling job of not only maintaining the website, but fighting the spammers that tend to live in the cyber world.
As you may have noticed, I have already started a spring clean of the site, all the menu’s have now been dusted, so you will now be able to find them easier when you want to post, which I am sure you will want to do so, and often.

Posting Articles Guide
If you think you may take some time in creating your article, it is recommended that you create your masterpiece in Notepad, or similar, but not Word. Once you have finished paste into the Body Text area and post.
To do this, position the cursor where you want to paste the text. Then use the Folder icon with T on yellow background which can be seen in the editor’s toolbar.
And don’t forget to select the correct the topic type, or your post may not appear where you thought.
The reason for this is that it has been found that for long articles, it is possible that the webpage may time out and the article be lost!
You may also need to set compatibility mode if you are running Internet Explorer 11, or your posts may not be saved.

I am trying to trace a George Stanley who married in 1924 in Nuneaton aged 24. He was known as George ‘Bunting’ Stanley. I wondered if anyone in the society could shed any light on him. It is believed that he had family connections in Towcester in Northants. An Eli Bunting lived in Towcester with his family I have discovered but can find no family links. To make matters more complicated George is believed to be of a Romany gypsy family background. Any assistance would be much appreciated. Julian

Does anyone have any further information regarding the two Mary Knowles’ in the Matlock 1 tree? In 1845, Mary Knowles from Staffordshire bacame the 2nd wife of Adam Bunting, but it seems that his Grandfather also married a lady of the same name. This is such a strange coincidence and I would like to find out more about the first Mary Knowles if anyone could help me please.
