- He entered the Royal Navy in 1812 as First Class Volunteer on H.M.S. Dublin in which he served off Brest, Rochefort and the coast of France and advanced to Midshipman. He then served in H.M.S. Minden at the Bombardment of Algiers, 27 August 1816, and in the same ship in the East Indies until 1820. In July 2005, the clasp he won at Algiers was up for auction by Spink for £1000-2000. In 1823, he joined H.M.S. Swinger and was actively employed off the West Coast of Africa in the suppression of the slave trade. He took part in the Ashantee War on the Gold Coast and was frequently in action on the coast and up rivers protecting towns which were well disposed. On one occasion while he was engaged in council with nearly 150 chiefs in the upper part of an old Dutch fort, the flooring gave way and he and the rest were precipitated to the bottom. Owing to this misadventure Mr Bunbury received several bruises and sustained a dislocation of the shoulder, in which condition, nevertheless, being the only person on shore aquainted with the navigation, he was obliged to steer his boat with the injured of his party through a heavy surf back to the ship. In 1825, he became Acting-Lieutenant in H.M.S. Victor, then served in several ships in the Mediterranean and off the West coast of Africa. He returned home in 1832. He was placed on the reserve list in 1853 and remained on the Navy list as Retired Commander with seniority dating from 1st July 1864.
- George and Ann had two sons.
