Birth: About 1775 Plymouth, Devon, England
Death: 1854
Spouse: Mary Ann Brent

Having trouble finding a birth record for John that fits, however, there is someone on ancestry that is researching this family (descendant of Margaret Bond born 1869 - daughter of John and Ann) and they have the following details:-

Margaret Frances Bond
Birth: 05 Sept 1869
Plymouth, Devon, England
Death: 21 Oct 1944
Plymouth, Devon, England

Parents
John Croad Bond
Ann Elford 1839 –

so if this is correct then Ann's maiden name is Elford, and John had a middle name Croad. As middle names were sometimes the maiden name of wife, it is possible that John's mother was Mary Croad, but that would need to be proven!!!

This is probably John in 1881:-

Name: John Boud
Age: 41
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1840
Gender: Male
Where born: Plymouth, Devon, England

Civil Parish: Vessels
County/Island: Royal Navy
Country: England

Street address: "Woodlark"
Condition as to marriage: Married

Occupation: Leading Seaman

Registration district: Royal Navy
Sub registration district: Royal Navy
ED, institution, or vessel: Woodlark

checked original record and clearly states place of birth as Plympton and Occupation as Leading Stoker, so looks to be correct record.

Being a Stoker in the Navy is very much the same job as an Engine Driver, so all seems to add up!

Possible death of Thomas:-

Deaths Mar 1869
BOND Thomas 54 Plympton 5b 180

So John Bond is missing from the family in 1871 and 1881!

Three possible marriages for John and Ann but this one is most likely:-

Davis Henry Plympton 5b 358
<<<<Elford Ann Plympton 5b 358 ?
<<<<Woods Ann Plympton 5b 358 ?

The district Plympton is an alternative name for Plympton St Mary and it spans the boundaries of the counties of Cornwall and Devon
Registers now in Plymouth district.

edit:- 1891 census says John and Ann born Plympton St. Marys so above marriage seems very likely!!
