Default Henry William Bond (or Pond!) MFMF

Date and place of baptism - if applicable

First marriage - unknown

Second marriage

The information I am still missing is as follows:

Where was Henry in 1841?

Do I have the correct man in 1851 (given as William Henry and not Henry William)?

Whom did Henry marry before he married Eliza Jeffcoat/Brewer?
When did his wife die?
Were there any children?

Is John Plowright Pond his brother and have I got the correct parents?

Have you tried London Street directories? Coffee House Keepers are usually listed & that would give you some indication of when he settled in London.
