And now it's really confusing.

1841 England Census
Name: Ann Buxton
Age: 48
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1793
Gender: Female

Civil Parish: Skegby
Hundred: Broxtow (North Division)
County/Island: Nottinghamshire
Country: England

Street address:

Occupation:

Registration district: Mansfield
Sub-registration district: Sutton in Ashfield
Neighbors: View others on page
Household Members: Name Age
John Buxton 49 - collier
Ann Buxton 48
Jarman Buxton 22 - collier
John Buxton 24 - collier
William Buxton 18 - collier
Ann Buxton 16
Mary Buxton 14
Tryfena Buxton 11
Jarman Marsh 1
John Beastall 26 - collier
Jarman Beastall 16 - collier
William Smith 19 - servant


I'm not sure whether this is the wrong set of brothers altogether, or it's the right brothers for the mine partnership but the family stories have become confused through the mists of time.

Thinking aloud now .....

So there's a possibility the original German Buxton died in NSW but had a son who had/made a fortune in Australia & returned to England.

................

It's interesting how the brothers found in the 1841 census, John & German, have humble origins - colliers. In later censuses they both have businesses & their father is a farmer of 72 acres. Do you think they may have inherited the original German's fortune? I wonder if there's a will?

.................

I have a big hunch that German & John are the ones referred to as having a partnership in a coal mine, & German is the one who had the shop. However where the original German fits in is a mystery.

Ozi.
