Son of Edward Tenney Bousfield and Charlotte Eliza (nee Collins). He married Clara Henman in Islip, Oxfordshire on 27 May 1882.
An obituary appeared for him in the South London Observer on Saturday 15 July 1921. It reads:
"DEATH OF DR. E. C. BOUSFIELD
It is with deep regret that we have to announce that Dr. Edward Collins Bousfield, Bacteriologist to the Borough of Camberwell since 1898, died suddenly on Friday morning, the 7th inst., at his residence, 6 De Crespigny Park, Denmark Hill. He had recovered from previous illnesses during the past few years, but they undermined his health and resulted in his sudden passing on Friday last. He was a pioneer of municipal bacteriology, being the first to hold such an appointment and amongst those with whom he had been associated in his bacteriological work and researches we may mention Dr. Klein, Professor Sims Woodhead and others. Dr. Bousfield was Director of the Camberwell Research Laboratories and his work is being continued by his son, Dr. G.W.J. Bousfield. He was also for some years a member of the Camberwell Board of Guardians and was their representative on the Metropolitan Asylums Board. Later he became the Local Government Board representative on the M.A.B. and during the last year or two was chairman of the Laundry Committee, in which capacity he effected great economies in expenditure owing to research. He was for many years medical officer to St. Olave's Grammar School. He was deputy medical officer of health for Camberwell on several occasions.
The interment took place at the Crystal Palace District Cemetery, Elmers End-road and the service was conducted by the Rev. Charles Wenyon, M. D., an old friend of the family. There were many beautiful floral tokens.
The funeral arrangements were entrusted to Messrs. Dunn, of Denmark Hill and High Street, Peckham, and were most satisfactorily carried out."
