Charles E. Bonnell has spent a lifetime helping Bonnell and Bunnell descendants find their ancestors. As editor of the Bonnell-Bunnell Family Newsletter he compiled and shared an incredible amount of information and countless family stories. Yet the amount of research he has done over the years is amazing.
In one of those efforts he tried to identify every Bonnell and Bunnell (and surname variations) in England prior to about 1850. He examined 65 different sources, including register transcripts, wills, archival records, books and articles and online databases.
He identified more than 700 individuals and created excel spreadsheets to track them. The entry for each states the type of event recorded, the date and the source of the information.
People were found in England, Wales, Scotland, the Channel Islands, France, Barbados and the Netherlands.
