Other Events:

• Birth: 1849, Hamburg

Notes:

Procuration 2 January 1873: living at 16 Great Winchester Street, London, merchant. Named John Francis Giffard and Josue de Carteret jointly or separately.

Procuration 24 October 1881: living at 3 Rue Vivienne, Paris. Named sister Louisa Ellen Bosdet of St Helier.

Given as merchant at his wedding living in Kensington. His father (James) was dead at this time.

At his death, his place of residence was 80 Lenthall Road, Dalston, given as retired East Indian Merchant, age 81 and apparently living with his son Charles Gifford William Bosdet who was also the informant.

When his wife Mary died 3 weeks after the birth of their son Vernon, Charles departed at once for the East Indies (where he claimed to be a financial agent) and few letters arrived for the next 10 years. A Jersey nurse-maid kept the two boys and herself by letting rooms in their Ealing Villa until young Charles went to work as a clerk at the age of15. She married one of the lodgers who disliked both boys and insisted they lived elsewhere. Charles went to live with another clerk. Vernon boarded with the Chapman family at the age of 5, then the Hughes at 7, the Chalmers at 8 for a few months and finally with the Clarks at Richmond. At this point, father reappeared and insisted that his son Charles provide a home for him! With some reluctance Mrs Millie Gunthorpe (aunt) was persuaded to give a home to Vernon.
