Welcome to GR Sheryl


From a tree on Ancestry........

Roger Bond Luscombe (1853-1925):

Roger Bond Luscombe (born Hendham, Woodleigh 1853, son of Henry Luscombe), married to Susan, emigrated to New Zealand in 1874, had children there and returned to Devon in 1912 to purchase Combe Royal.

He was a builder and horticulturist. Two of his brothers also emigrated - William Lavers Luscombe and Philip Henry Bond Luscombe.

Roger Bond Luscombe's first son was also a Roger and he remained in Devon, farming. The other families all established themselves in New Zealand and did not return to Devon.

Bond Roger Lavers Kingsbridge 5b 321
Edwards Ann Elizabeth Kingsbridge 5b 321
Pepperell Susanna Evans Kingsbridge 5b 321
Sandover George Kingsbridge 5b 321

but I can't see a Bond/Perrin marriage in UK registers

I am a NZ descendant of the above Luscombes. I am looking to see if any other family members have old photos/information/stories to share about the family. (e.g. any information about Roger Bonds wife, Susan Jane Perrin) Anything at all would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
