The Bearbury's were never released as a family set, and instead were divided into different Family Life playsets in the UK, and bundled with different accessories in Europe and America.
Some figures have been released more than once, just to add to the confusion! I have put an asterisk (*) next to the ones I own. Here is how they were bundled in the UK:
School Music Lesson and Teacher (2011) - came with Father
Birthday Celebration Set (2007) - came with Brother, Sister, Baby Sister (*)
Music time with Father (2004) - came with Father, Baby Brother
Stroll in the Park (2003) - came with Mother, Baby Sister (*) - not photographed
Oliver's First Bicycle (2002) - came with Brother (*) - not photographed
School Band Set (2002) - came with Father
Angele's Bedtime Set (2003) - came with Sister (*)
In Europe they were released as follows:
Papa Bruno & Dining Room Set - came with Father (*)
Mother Angela & Kitchen Set - came with Mother (*)
Alex Rides His Bike - came with Brother
Baby Carole & Baby Circle - came with Baby Sister (sitting position)
Bathroom & Olivia & Benjamin - came with Sister and Baby Brother (sitting position) (*)
In Europe they also released Grandparents, and a set of crawling/sitting twins seperately, which are difficult to find.
The UK and European versions of the family members have different clothes, some of which are only subtle changes, such as different coloured buttons.
I noted that in 2010 the Butler Bears were released in the UK as a Bus Driver & Conductor set. They have the same markings as the Bearburys, but have a different family name... For some reason.

Bearbury Bear Biographies
Angeles, Oliver and baby, Harriet Bearbury all love birthday celebrations; not just their own, but all birthday party celebrations. They get very excited each time a party invitation lands on the front door mat, because they know that they're going to have a wonderful time. It's the thought of all that rich food and delicious birthday cake, the brightly coloured balloons and party hats, the beautifully wrapped presents and the shear joy and happiness in taking part in the activities that make birthdays such special occassions. Only an invitation gets Oliver to dress smartly in his best clothes and he even washes behind his ears, without being nagged!
Angeles Bearbury is a pretty little girl. She has routines she adheres to rigidly from the moment she gets up till bedtime. At 7 o'clock on the dot she kisses everyone good night, then she cleans her teeth, and puts on a fresh pair of pyjamas and her slippers before climbing the stairs. She and her bear Teddy carefully select a book to read in bed, then snuggle up to sleep.
