Aunty Esther's Family

I first met Aunty Esther when we met at Impiana KLCC in Kuala Lumpur. Jeffrey brought his mother and family. I was walking straight ahead into a 'big man' and he turned out to be my cousin Jeffrey. A good thing I didn't ask him, "You Mat Salleh ke?" That was my first time meeting him even though my siblings have met him before.

Aunty Esther looked just like my mother. I could not believe my eyes when I first saw her, and I had thought my mother was 'really alive and walking again'. I sat close to her to see if she was my real mother! How weird! LOL.

We went through my book (draft), affectionately called 'the purple book'. All my kids and my husband know which book I'm referring to if I mention 'buku  purple'.

Aunty Esther married to Uncle Aelian Cantlay Schokman on 5 September 1959. They celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in 2009.

They have 2 children, Jeffrey and Veronica.

Frederick William Bulner

Frederick William Bulner (Lawrence Peter John, Jacob IV, III, II, I) (born 16 Jan 1872)


Sixth generation:
(6) FREDERICK WILLIAM BULNER (1872-1961)

Frederick William Bulner was a German Burgher born on 16 January 1872 in (Kandy) Ceylon. He worked in Ceylon and managed the firm Bulner Brothers. He married a Dutch Burgher named Emma Frances Krasse and they had 6 children. His children are therefore German-Dutch Burghers.

1. The family emigrated from Ceylon to Malaya, after their first child was born in 1911.
2. Their exact date of migration to Malaya is unknown. Passenger list will have three names - FW Bulner, Emma F Krasse and Katherine Daisy Decoursey Bulner.
3. They probably emigrated between 1911 and 1916. Their next child was possibly born in 1916.
4. Frederick Joseph Bulner (FJ Bulner) @ Freddie was born in Malaya, possibly in 1916.
5. Penelope Bulner was born in Malaya, possibly in 1918.
6. Sheila Bulner @ Isabel was born in Malaya on 18 May 1920.
7. From NvD: Isabel @ Sheila Bulner was born on 18 May 1920 (based on register at St Mary's Church in Kuala Lumpur. Father: Frederick William Bulner; Mother: Eva.)
8. The family migrated after 1911 - after their eldest child Catherine Daisy Decoursey Bulner was born in 1911 in Ceylon, and before the rest of the children were born in Malaya; before 1916 - before Guy & Eulie married in 1916 in KL; before 1920 - before Isabel @ Sheila was born in 1920 in KL; before 1930 - before Catherine married to Dr Che Lah in 1931 in KL.
9. However, according to my mother Tulip, the family migrated when their eldest daughter Catherine Daisy was a teenager, and before the last 2 children (Maurice Bulner and Humphrey Bulner) were born - they were born in Malaya. This is misleading because it indicates a later date of emigration. Catherine Daisy was born in 1911 and she would be 13 in 1924, ie teenager after 1924, but Sheila was born in 1920 in Malaya. So my mother's statement conflicted with current evidence.
10. An undated family photo from Jeffrey Schokman showed the couple with 4 of their elder children - Katherine Daisy, Penelope, Frederick Joseph @ Freddie and Sheila @ Isabel (then a baby). Where was this photo taken? Was this photo taken on 6 August 1921 at Sheila's baptism at St Mary's Church in KL, Malaya? 
11. If this photo was taken on 6 August 1921, then FW Bulner was 49 years old, Emma was in her late 30s, Daisy Katherine was 10 years old, Penelope was about 5 years old, Freddie was about 3 years old, and baby Sheila was 1 year old. Emma would be less than 39 years old as she had 2 more babies after Sheila - Maurice and Humphrey. Emma would be about 42-4 = 38 years old; meaning she was probably born circa 1921-38 = 1883. Then need to check her family tree to see if her birth date fits her age and birth order.

• Born 16 January 1872
• Birthplace: (Kandy) Ceylon
• Died: 1961. He was still alive in 1952 at Tulip's send-off to Kirkby, England. He probably died shortly after since there were no photographs of him after Tulip's send-off in 1952. He went to live in Singapore after World War 2.
• Burial: Bukit Timah Cemetery, Singapore (info from Danny Aruna, from his father Humphrey)
• Parents: father - Lawrence Peter Bulner (L P Bulner); mother - Jane Catherine Davies
• Sibs: 11 (7 boys + 4 girls) 
• Birth order: He was #2/11 siblings
• Occupation: He worked at 2 places, first in Ceylon, and then in Malaya.

1. He managed Bulner Brothers, a firm in Ceylon. 
2. He was a British clerk at Sungai Renggam Estate in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, Malaya (1920). Danny Aruna Burns wrote that Mr FW Bulner was manager of a rubber plantation. Sungai Renggam Estate was located between Klang and Kuala Lumpur.

• Marriage: He married Emma Frances Krasse, probably circa 1910, when he was 38 years old. Emma was probably about 27 years old (if she was born circa 1883).
• # of children: He had 6 children:

1. Katherine Daisy Decoursey, born 5 March 1911 Kandy, Ceylon; died 9 April 1981 Kuala Lumpur. Buried at Kajang Christian Cemetery, Selangor. Studied nursing in Malaya. Worked as a clerk at a military base near Gombak area. Decoursey is also spelled as De Coursey.
2. Frederick Joseph Bulner @ Freddie was born in Malaya, possibly in 1916. Died 1961.
3. Penelope Bulner was born in Malaya, possibly in 1918.
4. Sheila Bulner @ Isabel was born on 18 May 1920, but was listed in the St Mary's Church register on 6 August 1921. Was it her baptism?
5. Maurice Bulner was born in Malaya, possibly in 1925. He helped out with the church. My mother (Tulip) said he was mentally challenged.
6. Edward Kenneth Bulner @ Humphrey was born in Malaya on 7 February 1930. He married Marion and they live in London, UK. He visited relatives in Singapore and my aunt Esther in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Jeffrey has a photo taken with him. His son Danny Aruna Burns sent a photo of the couple and Aruna's children.

Bulner Family History in Asia

INTRODUCTION

The BULNER Family may have its origin in Germany, and also Sweden and Netherlands and thereabout, since old Germany may have different territories and country limits then.

Jacob Bulner was from Osnabrugge in Germany. He was possibly from the farmlands of Germany. He probably moved to Amsterdam and then went to sign up with the VOC to go overseas. He was probably a senior man.

Jacob Bulner joined the VOC in Amsterdam. Jacob Bulner worked for the VOC in Ceylon from 1752 till he died on 25 May 1790. Jacob Bulner married someone whom we don't know and had issue - a son at least. His son also joined the VOC in 1767 but went to work in Batavia. However, when the VOC ended in 1799, this son became a free citizen at the Cape of Good Hope. But his father (Jacob Bulner) was already deceased. This son probably went to Ceylon and lived and married there. He had issue - a son (Jacob Bulner's grandson), also named Jacob Bulner. 

To avoid confusion, we can name the senior man Jacob Bulner Sr or Jacob Bulner I, his son Jacob Bulner Jr or Jacob Bulner II, and his grandson Jacob Bulner III. Once we know their correct names, we can assign them the correct names and remove the placeholder names.

=========================================

THE BULNER FAMILY IN ASIA
===========================

1ST, 2ND, 3RD, 4TH GENERATIONS 

First Generation
JACOB BULNER I (born circa 1722- died 25 May.1790; aged 68 years)

• He sailed on the VOC ship Herstelder (restored ship) on 31 January 1752 to Ceylon via the Cape of Good Hope. 
• The ship stopped over at Texel island, South Africa for 20 days and then sailed onward to Ceylon.
• The ship arrived in Ceylon on Saturday, 12 August 1752, after 6 months of sailing from Holland (194 days).
