Possibly may have emigrated to the U.S. IF SO, then:
1870 Census: at Richfield, County of Lucas, Ohio, John Bamsey, 44, farmer, born in England; wife, Rosetta Bamsey, 30, keeps home, born in Pennsylvania; son, Geo Bamsey, 14, farming at home; daughter, Adelaide Bamsey, 12; son, Robert Bamsey, 10; daughter, Mary J Bamsey, 7. Children all born in Ohio
1880 Census: (by the time of the 1880 Census, Rosetta has remarried, so John Bamsey died 1871-1881) family living at Richfield, Lucas, Ohio, Henry Salmon, 56; wife, Rosetta Salmon, 41; stepson, George Bamsey, 25; stepson, Robert Bamsey, 21; stepdaughter, Jenny Bamsey, 18; daughter, Allis Salmon, 22; son, James Salmon, 19; daughter, Della E. Salmon, 16; son, Charles Salmon, 11.

June 1863 Civil War Draft Registration records list John Bamsey, age 35 from Richfield, Ohio, a tanner who was born in England.

familysearch.org Ohio County Marriages shows that John Bamsey [incorrectly idexed as "Ramsey"] and Rosetta Ackland married on December 13, 1854 in Lucas, Ohio. Note that she would only have been 15 years old as she is listed [under name, Rosette Acklin] in the October 3, 1850 Census at Springfield, Lucas, Ohio as being age 11 (and her death certificate gives her birth date as Aug. 4, 1839). Interestingly, on the same U.S. Census page as her family is the family of Alfred Bumsey (33) and Rosanna (30) both born in N.Y. whose children are 10, 8, 3 and 2mths. Is there a possibility that Alfred is related to John Bamsey and that he came to Springfield, Ohio, to visit them?

John Bamsey died in 1871 and there is an index record in the Ohio County Marriages database of Rosetta Ackland remarrying, on March 16, 1873, William Elliott, in Lucas Ohio.
