Thanks, Bev!
William Edward Jones must have been a first cousin as he was 84 when he died 24 May 1895. He was in Whitchurch, so had never moved.

I think it is so sad that families lost touch, particularly following emigration.
Given that one brother died under 15, returning from Bengal (had he been intended for the East India Company, but was unable to cope with the climate?) and another emigrates to Australia, I suppose it was possible that John William Horseman himself emigrated to start a new life, and died abroad. Or, since I have him in London, Cambridgeshire, Worcester, Bedfordshire, and his presumed widow in Manchester, he could have died anywhere, and the burial is not online.

Best Mate is over the moon with this.
It suddenly starts to make sense of some of the tangled stories we heard as children. Thank you, everyone!
