Alfred Osmond/Sarah Bishop from Greenspond, NL.

Looking for info on Alfred Osmond & Sarah Bishop. Were married in 1867 in Greenspond, lived in Lethbridge, NL. from 1869-1910. Children were Janet born Apr. 7, 1869, Mary Jane Margaret born Nov. 5,1878, Pharoah & Israel. Would like to know their birthdates, where they lived after, any info appreciated. Did find at archives that a Alfred Osmond died in Brooklyn, Nl. on March 24, 1910 at age 71 and a Sarah Osmond, born in Greenspond died in Badger on Oct 26, 1920 at age 71.
In Sept. 2000 a Tom Groves posted request on this family as well on NGB Research Forum, looking for info on the two sons he had listed as Pharoah and Isaac. If anyone knows Tom Groves and connection to Alfred and Sarah would appreciate hearing from them.

I dont know which line that Alfred comes down but there was a family of 7 that came to the Greenspond area in the late 1700's. All starts with Richard and his wife Elizabeth. Richard came from England and ran a shipping company. His children

James marries Siborah Beatrice Hiscock. Had 4 boys in James b1818m(wife Sylvia) Johnb1821(wife Ann Wells), Thomas Francisb1828(wife Selina Wells), Jonasb1833(married Emma). Plus 4 daughters

Joseph marries Anne Flood but there children start in 1831 and probably not Alfreds parents unless he married real early, Maybe Johnb1831m Jane Amelia House. Next one is 1835

George marries Mary Ann Windsor. 1st boy b 1842 so no way

Richard marries Margaret Burry Oldford. 1st boy b1833 of Horatio. 2nd Arthur b 1836

I really believe your chasing the first line of James. Of course I could be missing a child for Richard. Hope this gives you some ways to go as I dont have an Alfred in my tree.

I have all the information on Pharoah Osmond and Sarah Osmond's children and granchildren as I am Pharoah's grand daughter. I am not able to find the birth record of Pharoah's father and mother, Alfred Osmond and Sarah Bishop. I did find their marriage record at the archives indicating they were married in Greenspond, NL. and born there. A Tom Groves was also looking for info on them in 2000 as apparently he is descendant of them as well. I also found the death record of both. Wondering if there are any descendants of them that would know of their birth record.

Yes, thanks, found that online and at the archives. Found that Sarah Bishop died at age 71 in 1920 at Badger, NL. Indicated on that record she was born in Greenspond, so I am assuming it is the one I am looking for. Are you related to this family?
