Hubert Crumpler remembered his father telling him about the finding of the "Bulbury Bull", a small Celtic bronze charm in the shape of a bull. His father was one of the men draining the earthwork at Bulbury Camp, Lytchett Matravers, before it was ploughed in the late 1870s; an iron anchor and chain were found with it, and they are now in the Dorset County Museum. In 1881 antiquarians found the bull nailed over a cottage door as a charm to cure a sick boy. (Shirley Percival, A Dorset Village: Lytchett Matravers, 1982, page 2.) The book does not name his father; in this tree he is George Edwin Osmond Crumpler, born 1846 in Lytchett Matravers. | Crumpler, Hubert (I0940)

It shows that he was born on 11 Nov 1891 in Aberdeen, Washington and died on 26 May 1941 at home (1831 University Street, Eugene, Oregon). The cause of death is shown as "hypertension cardio, duration 9 years; renal disease."
The death certificate indicates Hart was a professor at the University of Oregon. Father: Alfred W. Hart; Mother: Emily McClelland Gears (born Kentucky).

I have just finished reading (on inter library loan ) "The Logbook of John
Gorman" which has been transcribed by FH Broomhall..from the original
manuscript witten aboard the Minden on its voyage to Australia in 1851...
It was interesting that John Gorman conducted a School after his
arrival...(the book is not clear on dates..schooling occured) .
Charges were 6d and I guess that may have been per week,..when we look at
the pension of 1/- per day or thereabouts as most pensioner's were paid.
There were apparently two sessions...Day School 12 students and Night
School...7 students.. (Lookups for this week only..the book must go back at
the weekend)
The seven night school students must have had some sort of work during the
day..which kept them from attending day classes..
John Campbell, (most probably the son of John Campbell EPG of Minden) was a
Night School student In 1851/52 he would have been 13/14 atr the time..
It would be interesting to find out what sort of work these young boys did .
Cheers

George Booth is thought to have ben born in 1826 at Huddersfield in Yorkshire, England. His father's name was John Booth a Blacksmith and it is thought that his mother's name was Hannah.
On the 3rd December in the 12th Year of the rign of Queen Victoria (1848), George Booth, Henry Jackson, George Storey and Thomas Turner in the Borough of Manchester 'feloniously did break and enter" the Warehouse of Thomas Hallam and 'in the said Warehouse feloniously did steal, take, and carry away", -
"Two Coats of the value of one penny each,
Two pairs of trousers to the value of one penny each,
Two yards of woollen cloth to the value of one penny each, and
one yard of cotton cloth to the value of one penny each".
Thomas Turner and George Booth had both been convicted of 'several felonies; at the General Sessions of the Peace at Salford on the 31.05.1846 ans so both were sentenced to seven years transportation. Henry Jackson and George Storey received a sentence of 12 months hard labour at Lancaster Castle.
On 05.04.1849 George was removed from "The House of Correction, Salford, to the County Gaol and House of Correction, Leicester on his way to the Convict Huck "Warrior: anchored in the Woolwich Dockyard on the Thames River.
The ship he was to be transported on was "The Hired Convict Ship Minden" of 916 tons drawing 16ft of water. It was built at Sunderland in 1848 and was chartered on 06.06.1851 for "The Conveyance of 196 Male Convicts to Western Australia".
The ship's Master was Captain R.D. Crawford and the Surgeon Superintendant was John Gibson. The "Minden" was to embark convicts at Woolwich, Portsmouth, Cowes (Parkhurst Boys), Portland and Plumouth, the total number being 302.
On 05.07.1851 late in the afternoon the "Minden" sailed from Woolwich, with a steady fair wind in tow of a steamer which continued with it for three hours". When the breeze freshened the cast off, but about 09:00 o'clock, when the wind died the anchor was cast.
At 09:00 am on 21.07.1851 the "Minden" cleared the breakwater at Plymouth. It was a delightful morning with a light wind.
With the loading of the last convicts at Plymouth, George Booth and his 301 fellow convicts aboard the hired convict ship "Minden" were about to become a part of an era in WA history, an era that many wished to forget and indeed concealed for many years. It was September 1981 before the grandchildren or great grand children of George Booth were to discover his mode of "Transport" t this country.
On the lenghty vouage of the "Minden" a strict routine was maintained by the Surgeon Superintendent, John Gibson, to ensure discipline and the good healt of all aboard the ship.
Each day the convicts awoke before daybreak. On alternate days a division of convicts were, in regular succession, to be on deck at daylight with beds lashed and ready for stowing. When on deck they exercised and washed and were ready for inspection with bare arms and legs. This all had to be completed in time to allow the rest of the prisoners to come on deck, stow their bed, wash their face and hands and comb their hair in good time before breakfast which was as soon as possible after 08:00 am.
Dinner was at 01:00 pm and supper not later than 04:00 pm. Decks were swept after each meal with two convicts from each Mess to attend and see all rations issued.
Water closets were cleaned daily and inspected personally by John Gibson, these convicts were allowed freedom for the day, if the closets met the strict standards required.
Clothes washing days were Tuesdays and Fridays, to wash on other days was forbidden. Special Lines were erected for clothing, "as accidents had occurred by doing so in the rigging".
Wednesdays and Saturdays were shaving days, while Sundays was divine service.
All were to be in bed by 08:30 pm when noise must cease. It was forbidden for convicts to communicate with ships company or guard.
Four deaths occurred on the voyage of 85 days. The total number of the ship when it arrived in Fremantle was 459.
After breakfast each day, half the convicts were at school in the "Prison", while the other half were on the upper deck making up garments and shoemaking. These were reversed in the afternoon, to ensure each person had the benefit of fresh air daily.
Their day concluded after supper at 04:00 and then beds were made up and all convicts were allowed on deck and actively encouraged in "diversions such as dancing, music, leap frogs and the boxing gloves". The roll was called each night.
To combat scurvy lime juice and wine mixed together with water and sugar were regularly served after dinner and each man was personally checked by John Gibson to ensure it was drunk. A bilge water odour caused great discomfort to all, but after pumping dry the bilges and after a liberal application of chloride of zinc down the pumps and air holes it disappeared.
On 14th September with the sun streaming through the stern ports the "Minden" sailed on without motion, but 23rd September as the ship sailed south it became bitterly cold with sleet and occasional squalls. On 30th September the Captain calculated that they were 10-12 days from Fremantle, people were hoping that the voyage would soon end. The cramped conditions and cold were troubling some passengers.
As the voyage was drawing to a slose the weather improved and everyone was experiencing for the first time the pleasant weather associated with that time of the year in the Swan River Colony. By 13th October they were 96 miles from their destination. John Gibson was busy distributing clothing to the convicts. One blue shirt, fustin trousers, jacket and waistcoat, bluecap, two handkerchiefs, one pair of socks and a pair of stockings.
Those aboard the "Minden" showed their appreciation of the attitude of John Gibson to all by drawing up and signing a petition thanking him for his care and assistance during the voyage. His guidance must have been sought by many as to the state of the "Swan River Colony", for his was in charge of the first convicts to arrive d on the "Scindian" in 1850. In sixteen months he had seen the Port of Fremantle altered from a "dead, deserted looking fishing haven, to a busy bustling nucleus of commerce" and he had "no doubt that WA will in the long run become as flourishing as her sister colonies".
On 14th October 1851, George Booth and his fellow convictw were granted a Ticket of Leave. When ashore this would allow them to seek work in an approved district and be free of prison walls and strict discipline, but had to report regularly to the authorities. Prior to leaving a district they had to obtain the permission of the Resident Magistrate and must produce hisTPL to anyone who requested to see it.
The convicts started to make their way ashore on 18th October 1851 and it was to start another era in their lives. A life so contrasting to their previous ways.

INDIA (added 2 Nov 2026). Married Gertrude Verschoyle Rose at St Paul's, Umballa, 20 Nov 1901. Children: a daughter born at Karnal 23 Oct 1902, a daughter at Kasauli 27 Jul 1904 and a son at Meerut 6 Dec 1905 (names not in the notices). In 1902 he was in Punjab Irrigation at Karnal. He died at Tonk, Rajputana, on 2 May 1906, State Engineer, aged 31. The Argus notice calls him the "elder son" of Clement Parker, i.e. the elder of the two sons who survived. George was himself a twin: his twin brother William Charles died in 1876, aged 1 (GRO indexes, see the family note).
FAMILY STORY (Aunt Min's letter, c1977): George was meant to be a teacher. He stowed away on a ship to the West Indies, helped the captain when a mutiny broke out, and did well. He went to Ceylon and India, was first librarian and secretary to a Maharajah, then joined the Indian Civil Service, became an engineer and helped build the canal system in the Punjab. He married, had several children and died young, about 1906; his wife and children went back to her family and contact was lost.
How the records fit: the engineering, the Punjab canals, the marriage, the children and the 1906 death are all CONFIRMED. The stowaway and mutiny are NOT FOUND. "Librarian and secretary to a Maharajah" is NOT FOUND, although he did end up in a princely state's service (Tonk, ruled by a Nawab). His August 1900 photograph (media 502) was taken by a photographer in the Central Provinces. Strictly, an irrigation engineer was in the Public Works service, not the ICS; the letter uses the term loosely. | Parker, George Clement (I513973361)

JAMES MORGAN IN PENNSYLVANIA (researched October 2026)
James was the brother of Sarah Ann Morgan (Parker), and so the uncle of Sarah Ann Parker (Wilson) and Ann Louisa Parker. He emigrated to America in 1869 (1910 census) and lived first at Nanticoke, Luzerne County. His obituary says he "conducted the North Branch" for many years (the North Branch Hotel, Main Street, Nanticoke - see the note on the hotels). About 1893 he moved to Lee Park, in Hanover Township just south of Wilkes-Barre, and carried on the same business there. In January 1894 he applied for a licence for a restaurant at the corner of Barney and Division streets, Hanover Township; in February 1910 Judge Garman granted him a retail licence for Denison Street. In the 1910 census he is a hotel keeper and employer at 1 Lee Park Avenue, owning the house free of mortgage.
About 1882 he married Margaret Evans, a widow, born at Beaufort, Monmouthshire, in 1841, who had come to America as a baby. Margaret had borne four children, none living by 1910 (1910 census). James had no surviving children: his obituary names only a brother and a sister in England, and Margaret's names only her husband and two brothers. Margaret died at Lee Park on 4 July 1911 after a series of strokes. James retired about 1912.
THE 1913 VISIT. In April 1913 his widowed niece Sarah Wilson, her son Frank (aged 5) and her unmarried sister Louisa Parker sailed from Liverpool on the Celtic to join him. The manifest says they were going to "Uncle James Morgan, 3 Lee Park Ave, Hanover Township, Wilkes-Barre" and that their passage was paid by the uncle. They were back in England about five weeks later. INFERENCE (not stated in any record): a newly widowed and newly retired uncle invited his nearest family to join him, and the arrangement did not last. No record found so far says why they went home.
He died at 1 Lee Park Avenue on 22 April 1918 of Bright's disease (kidney failure) after several months' illness, and was buried in Hollenback Cemetery, Wilkes-Barre. Funeral from David E. Jones's rooms, 17 Division Street, conducted by Rev. E. J. Morris of the Puritan Congregational Church.
STILL TO FIND: his will and estate papers (Luzerne County Register of Wills, 1918), which should show who inherited the Lee Park property; the Hollenback Cemetery interment record; where Margaret is buried; a photograph of either hotel. | Morgan, James (I513983494)

Known only from the 1880 census (Beulah Township), where John C. G. Crumpler, son, aged 1, is listed with Joshua and Mary A. E. (Bettie).

Florence, born October 1878, should have appeared in 1880 aged 1 but is missing, so this entry may be Florence mis-recorded or mis-transcribed.

Mark had 2 sisters born after his birth that died in infancy (from Lyn Williamson)
EXTRACT FROM "THE VICTORIA EXPRESS". GERALDTON, JAN 29th, 1887 (From the Dongara correspondent).
"Last Thursday, the 20th, a sad misfortune befel one of our oldest townsmen, Mr. M. Fripp. While the family were at dinner that day one of the little boys had gone outside for something, came rushing in with the news that the house was on fire. Mrs. Fripp's mother, who at that time was ill in bed, and the first thought of which was to save her, which was done none too soon. She was kindly taken in by Mr. Johnstone, the schoolmaster.
Several people came running up to render assistance but the place being low, with a thatched roof, very few things were saved. Of clothes they only saved what they had on at the time of the accident. Much sympathy was felt and expressed, not only in kind words but kindlier deeds. Presents of money and clothes were given, sufficient perhaps to meet the bare necessities of present existence."
EXTRACT FROM "THE VICTORIA EXPRESS", GERALDTON, SAT 30th,1887 (from their Dongara correspondent).
"It is often said, troubles never come alone. Some little time ago I reported the burning of Mr. Mark Fripp's cottage and nearly all his household effects. Last Monday, while Mr. Fripp was yoking a young horse in the lead, near Mr, Smith's house, the horse somehow knocked him down. He was conveyed to his home, having, it is feared, sustained some internal injury. The Rev. Dr. Tail was speedily in attendance, but the case appears to be beyond his skill, I understand that Dr. King has been telegraphed for, and will be here today (Wednesday). Mr. Fripp says he cannot move any part of his body below his head, not even a toe or finger and that he cannot feel any sensation when touched
Fears are entertained for his recovery".

"The accident to Mr. Fripp, reported in my last letter has proved badly. On Thursday the 28th April, at 1.30 a.m. he died, leaving a wife and seven children to mourn his loss. He was much respected and a great many attended the funeral on Friday morning, which was conducted by Rev, J.G. Mitchell. A hymn, chosen by Mr. Fripp, was sung around the grave as the body was laid to its last resting place. I would say "Rest in Peace". | Fripp, Mark Kail Robert (I1512)
