I have been going through the refs and all list Vinton (banns, marriage, death and the births of the children.) They seem to have got around a bit. Marriage St Enoder, then residence at time of eldest childrens baptisms Truro St Clement, Kenwyn, then youngest children baptised Newlyn and burial Newlyn. He was an Ag Lab/Husbandman. Interesting that the older children were baptised Bible Christian. Two of the younger boys were baptised in the Newlyn Church the same date as the burial...Kris

Hi,
I really can't say what they thought when they were asked but I would assume they did know if they were born in Cornwall or not. Did they hear the question right I can't say (In this case I would suggest if he misunderstood the question and was born in Cornwall but in a different parish then the same applied for the older three children (one was born in St Clement and two in Kenwyn) If that was the case these children should also say no - it always becomes tricky when someone only leaves the 1841 census as a clue. There is nothing showing anywhere for Cornwall that I can see.
I actually went through the St Enoder Baptisms firstoff just in case. I looked from 1790 and he is not there but as this was Dorcas's Parish that is reasonable. The records list his age as 40 in 1841 (with rounding down) and 47 in 1846 so I well and truly covered the era. The marriage lists him as OTP but alas we have no idea how long he may have been OTP for or where he may have come from. Sorry .....Kris
