The census also shows a

Frederic-
Charles-
Frank-
Eliza-
William-
Ann and
Charlotte. ( Mary Ann was I believe, Mary Ann Henning)
In

Frederic aged 35 a Police Constable.
Frank aged 28 a Potters Labourer.

James died on the 10th April, 1871 shortly after the census was taken.
In
1881 census
John aged 66 and
Rachel aged 61 were at the Albion Hotel, Verwood Common.
Also on Verwood Common were
Mary.A.Budden, now widowed, aged 65 and working as a Potter along with
Frank aged 42 and
Lot aged 19.
There is obviously a connection with one of the Verwood Potteries.I have had a great deal of help with my research recently from the Verwood Historical Society.Many thanks to them for their help so far.
In
1881 census at Bargates, Christchurch are:
Henry.A.Budden a Coach Builder aged 25
Sarah Budden his wife aged 27
Florence Budden-Daughter aged 4
Charles Budden (Brother) a Coach Wheeler aged 18.
(Henry married
Sarah Janes on 20/9/1876 at St Clement,Bournemouth)
In
1891 census Henry had moved to 31,Gladstone Road, Boscombe,Bournemouth and had another daughter,
Alice Maud Budden aged 9.
In
1901 census Henry and wife Sarah were in Victoria Road , Bournemouth with grandson, William aged 3.
It now appears that Florence married William John Dwyer in 1899. She died shortly afterwards and her sister Alice then married William in 1900.
Henry, Sarah and grandson William Dwyer emigrated to Canada in 1907 before moving to America and are found in the 1920 census for Saginaw County, Michigan.
The Coach Builder business must I believe also be connected with John's Transport business.
John Budden died aged 82 on 23/11/1896 in Broomhill.Alfred Habgood, his son-in-law was present at his death.Rachel Budden died aged 87 on 5/3/1908 at West Moors. Her daughter, Frances Bartlett was the informant. GEORGE AND JOANNA( Nee: ROLES)Although the IGI have George & Joanna as John's parents, it is by no means a certainty. George & Joanna married 6th March in 1799 in Witchampton.Children found so far are :-
John bap 25/6/1815
Joanne bap 29/7/1800
James bap 27/3/1808
Sarah bap about 10/3/1799
William bap 26/2/1804
If anyone can help me prove who John's parents are I would be most grateful as this is my brick wall !!
I have found a George Budden baptised on 5/7/1778 in Edmondsham, son of William & Sarah. ( A William married a Sarah Hatchett on 10/4/1771 in Horton which could be them.)Possible children besides George are:-
Elizabeth baptised 6/11/1771 in Horton.William baptised 14/3/1773 in Edmondsham.Wlliam baptised 26/5/1776 in Edmondsham.
