VIVIAN Family
« on: Sunday 26 February 06 07:48 GMT (UK) »
Help please. 
I am looking for a birth record for William Vivian born circa 1829.  I can't find him on the census of 1841.  On his death certificate his parent's names were given as James Vivian and Mary Vivian.  Where do I look?

Hi,

Any idea where he might have been born?

On the IGI there is a ..

William VIVIAN bapt 19 Jan 1828 at Camborne
Parents - James and Jane

next nearest is bapt 1834 at Redruth, parents James and Jane

Mary, Mary-Jane and Jane seem to be a bit interchangeable I've found in my diggings so the first one might be worth considering.

What date is his death cert? And where?

Thanks for your information.  Yes Mary could have been Jane I suppose as William married married Mary Jane Cornelius in Redruth according to her death certificate around 1852.  William and Mary Jane both died in Australia.  William in 1887 and Mary Jane in 1877.  She was 45 and he was 57 at the time of death.

freebmd.rootsweb.com shows Mar 1852 quarter marriages, William Vivian and Mary Jane 'Cornelias', Volume:  5c
Page:    393
district of Redruth.

I'd suggest getting the marriage, because then you will confirm father's name (and know his occupation), have an address to search for the 1851 census, and hopefully also confirm his age (as I've found age of people on death certificates, as well as other info, to often be anywhere from only vaguely inaccurate to wildly wrong).

Thanks Jorose,
Could anyone tell me how I go about getting a certificate for William Vivian and Mary Jane Cornelius' marriage in Parish of Redruth .  On line would be preferable as it would be quicker than sending snail mail from here in Australia.

You can order certificates here.. [url]http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/[/url] .. using the District/Vol/Page Number details given in Jorose's posting. They cost £7 sterling each - not sure if you'll get charged extra postage to Oz? I live in Ireland but they don't charge extra for me.
