In 1901 he was living at Pantyokin, Gresford, Denbigh, Wales, a retired Lt Col, aged 64 and born in Englefield, Berks.  With him were his wife, 2 daus and 5 servants.  Next door was Pantyokin Farm which may, or may not, have been allied to the house.

His death record is not yet on FreeBMD, though an age plausible William Busfield [sic] died aged 74 in Q4 of 1912 in Leeds vol 9b, p. 536.
