Thankyou alviegal! How brilliant, I'm thrilled you have found such interesting articles. Could I ask where you found them or if you have the links to them?
I will have to look into the marriage of Alfred and Hannah and see if they fit on my tree although bosco doesn't seem to be a very common name in England.

After more research I'm not entirely sure that the signor bosco from the articles above is the same so or bad I that came over from Italy in 1845. The signor bosco from the articles is almost an alias name from a man named James Frederick greethead born in England in 1851 mother Mary greethead .Other aliases include leotard bosco.

The articles I have posted are from the 1850s, the dates are posted with them. They are all from findmypast.


Leotard Bosco is this man born in 1850 so he can't be the Signor Bosco I have posted about.
He may be the same person as SAUL BOSCO that I posted. Another alias???
