Seeking info on family of Mary Jane Traplin, b dec 12, 1840, possbly born in Canada or the USA, d. july 30, 1915 in Massachusetts, USA. I am hoping maybe someone has her in their database and can provide me with her ancestry. She married Jeremiah Pickup, b Hyde, England in 1837. I have info on Jeremiah - need info on Mary Jane. Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi
Rats  , was hoping it wasn't you  , and sorry no I have nothing except curiosity! Though I note on IGI there is apparently a record for her that is "Extracted birth or christening record for the locality listed in the record":
Mary J TRAPLIN born 1840 West Springfield, Hampden, Massachusetts.
Did she appear on the Census thru USA after she married PICKUP - ie: what do they say about where she was born?
Cheers

1871 census in Hespeler, Canad lists her bithplace as England. However, I have also seen a reference to a place called Aurora - i am told that is NOT in England, so I am thinking maybe it is Canada since Jeremiah emigrated to Canada. It's a puzzle, for sure!!!

Hi
Yes the entry on BMD is the registration year - and being 1st Quarter of 1841, that Mary Jane TRAPLIN was very likely born end of 1840.
Here is info on how English Civil Registration works:
http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/civreg/
Her christening entry is on the IGI I thinK
Mary Jane TRAPLIN chr Mullion, Cornwall 13 Apr 1841
Parents: Richard TRAPLIN and Mary Ann
Mullion is a village is within the Registration district of Helston.
http://www.fhsc.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/helston.html
I can find no other births of a TRAPLIN in Helston District on FREEBMD (which are not complete) but it indicates the family may have moved - perhaps they all immigrated when Mary Jane was young. What did your Mary Jane and Jeremiah name their children?
I also can't find a Richard TRAPLIN on Census 41 Index name may be mispelled....?
There aren't many TRAPLIN entries at all on UK Census and on IGI, and most seem however come up in Cornwall....
Cheers

Hi
Woo, found reference to Richard TRAPLIN in 1841 Census:
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~kayhin/40138b.html
Parish of Mawgan In Meneage, Book 9 Folio 21 Page 4
Place: Pradanack Wartha
Richard TRAPLIN age 40, Occ: Ag Lab, born In county
Mary TRAPLIN age 30 born In county
Elizabeth TRAPLIN age 10 born In county
Grace TRAPLIN age 7 born In county
John TRAPLIN age 3 born In county
Mary TRAPLIN age 6months born in County
Sarah PLOMER age 30,School Mistress, born in county
Census 1841 does not give relationships, so it is only the assumption (probable) that this is a Couple and their children - they are however all in the same Household. Ages in that Census were also supposed to be rounded back to nearest 5 years for people over 15. So both Richard and Mary could have actually been a few yrs older than is stated.
If you look on IGI there is a probable Richard TRAPLIN birth to match.
And take a good browse thru this site:

Hi
We were cross posting....so, I was hoping your couple had children which would echo Richard TRAPLIN's children, ie: naming after Mary Jane's siblings and parents, but not apparently so Still....
IGI has christenings of : Parents Richard TRAPLIN and Mary Ann (Maryanne)
Elizabeth Anne TRAPLIN Christening 05 APR 1830 Mullion, Cornwall
Elizabeth Anne TRAPLIN Christening: 13 JUN 1831 Mullion, Cornwall,
Grace Harry TRAPLIN Christening: 24 NOV 1833 Mullion, Cornwall
John TRAPLIN Christening: 06 NOV 1838 Mullion, Cornwall
The first Elizabeth may actually be a birth, not a Christening?
Can't find John on FREEBMD, so probably born before Civil Registration began Sep 1837. Harry, the middle name of Grace, could be MaryAnn's maiden name - there's a few Mary/Ann HARRY's of Cornwall on IGI.
Can't find marriages of Grace, Elizabeth or John in FREEBMD. And no death of a Richard anywhere. No death of a Mary Ann/e but a couple of Mary's none in Helston. But did find a death of an Elizabeth in 1859 Helston - if the family is yours and all emigrated it could therefore be from 1859 and not include Elizabeth.
I think, all in all it would be worth you getting the birth record of Mary Jane TRAPLIN born in Helston - hopefully the birth date will match and you'll be away Perhaps a liittle look on USA Census for Richard et all, too.
Cheers

Hi Ruby!
Well spotted - that Mary age 6 months is the daughter of Richard - and in the link I posted above for the 1841 Census, I didn't check far enough down - just had another look: baby Mary is at the top of the next page (Folio5) from the rest of her family is on Page (Folio)4. ANd also in the household, listed under Mary is:
Sarah Plomer age 30,School Mistress, born In county,
Have edited my post above to put them in.
I'll just have a look on the 1851, since I'm currently in a position to be able to do so - but it is certainly seeming as if the whole family may have emigrated to Canada and yay! It looks to me like yourself & "srcsdesk" ahve made a cousin connection!
Cheers
