A death in 1871 in Athlone for a Richard Wensley Bond - Age 50
I can't find a death 1865 - 1875 with an age anywhere near 50.

Sophia died 18 Sept 1867 at North Richmond Street, aged 68 Sophia relict of Richard Wensley Bond Esq., County Roscommon.

Group Registration ID N/R
SR District/Reg Area Dublin North
Deceased Age at Death 68
Returns Year 1867
Returns Quarter 3
Returns Volume No 12
Returns Page No 338

The following one married Sophia in 1820.

Richard Wensley BOND
Birth: Abt 1783 in Ross, County Cork, Ireland
Death: 3 Oct 1860 ?

Moreton Bay on the 'Flying Cloud' on 19th February 1864 with the 5 Bond children.

Elizabeth Rose b. abt 1851
Robert b. abt 1855
William Henry b. abt 1856
John Thomas b. abt 1858
Ann Maria b. ??

I don't believe Richard born abt 1783 is the father. Must be the one born abt 1821.

Thanks Geoff.

There are some who believe the one born abt 1783 is the father with a Bridget Farrell of the five children listed in post #2 and who all arrived in 1864.

Death 17 Jan 1938/B38307 Bond William Henry - Richard Winsley - Bridget Farrell

I've only traced that one connected to my tree. I don't know if the father is listed as Wensley Richard or Richard Wensley in the death reg of the other four.

There weren't many trees, from what I recall info is as your info in post #1.

I'll have another look at the trees.

Marriage to Bridget did not take place. The question is which Richard is the father of the five children who arrived with Bridget?

I can't find a death in Qld. for John Thomas.

Thanks Geoff.

Seems to be solved now. I have previously been given that as Richard Wensley hence my question as to who was the father of the youngest five.

Ireland, Civil Registration Deaths Index, 1864-1958:
Wensley Richard Bond
Date of Registration: 1871
Death Age: 50
Registration District: Athlone
Volume: 18, Page: 12
FHL Film 101585

A bachelor.
