NANKIVELL is a Devon surname with umpteen variants, e.g. A-KIVEL, CIVEL, KIVEL, NEKIVELL, PEN-KIVELL. This makes searching difficult and also means you cannot be sure you have found the right person unless you look through all the variant spellings as well.
I know how difficult this is because I have found 96 variant spellings of the surname I am interested in (WINDEATT). BUT I have to admit that I think searching NANKIVELL would be even worse - given the WINDEATT example, I suspect there will be well over one hundred spelling variants of NANKIVEL!
If you were not already aware of these disparate spellings then I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news. For the source of this information =, see reference (note 4):
http://www.windeatt.f2s.com/windeatt/origins.htm#refs
Look at Note 4.

I am looking for a John Nankivill Osborne son of Margaret Osborne of Mary Tavy. THey livedin the mining district in Blackdown and John and his wife Jane Drake are found with their family on teh 1851 census.
However with the poor quality 1841 census I am unable to locate John on the 1841. He would have married Jane by that time as the first child was born abt 1830 - Betsy.
If anyone has any osborne and Nankivill connections in Mary Tavy I woudl be very grateful.
I am assuming Margaret was the Nankivill and she married Mr Osborne but no trace so far.

John Nankivell OSBORNE was the illegitimate son of miner John NANKIVELL and Margaret OSBORNE. He was a witness to his sister’s wedding in 1837 . His sister was as follows:
Mary OSBORNE the illegitimate daughter of miner John NANKIVELL and Margaret OSBORNE was born in 1810 or 1811 in Marytavy parish, Devon. She lived in Blackdown in the parish of Marytavy. Mary was married on 5 August 1837 by banns at Marytavy parish church to copper miner Walter BARTLE of Blackdown, the son of miner Walter BARTLE Senior. He had been born in Marytavy in about 1809 or 1810. Walter signed his name (badly) and Mary OSBORNE made her mark. Witnesses were George TRINNEATH and her brother John Nankivell OSBORNE who made his mark.
In 1851 when the census was taken, Walter and Mary BARTLE, aged 41 and 40 respectively, were living in Blackdown with their four children, Betsy, William, Jonathan and Maryann BARTLE, all born in Marytavy parish.
