Buntings of Shropshire

Have you written to the other two Society Members researching Bunting/Bunton in Shropshire to see if they have further information? Their addresses are in the recently issued Members' Interest booklet.
A new issue of the Genealogical Research Directory (GRD) for 2005 is imminent. This book shows which researchers, world wide are looking for Buntings and other names. People don't submit their interests each year so to discover someone looking for the Shropshire family you may have to scan several editions. County family history societies, Local Studies Libraries & Archives usually have them too. Has Mary Rix printed you a copy of the Society held Shropshire tree? Let me know how you get on. Michael.

I'm in contact with one member who has Shropshire Bunting connections and have written to the other. I don't have a copy of the Society held Shropshire tree, no. A further problem I've discovered is that my Buntings appear to be nowhere on the 1851 and 1861 censuses. I've accessed the 1861 census via Ancestry - no Buntings. I have a copy of the Shropshire 1851 census and also the 1851 Montgomeryshire census, but again, no Buntings! It's very frustrating.
