Thanks, Chris.

He is the Rev. James Bond who was at Ashford, which is also where his uncle and father-in-law, the Rev. James Andrew, was vicar.

They both came from Probus in Cornwall. James Andrew is my 5x-great-uncle and James Bond my 4x-great-uncle.

I was lying in bed wondering about education in those days. James Bond was one of 11 children. His family were comfortable but not wealthy. He seems to have received a very good education and I wonder if he was educated in nearby Truro.

His uncle James Andrew was one of 8 children and I had the same questions about his education.

This website tells you a lot more about them. I have been checking my findings with it, but I have been doing my own research.
