UREN (All)
« on: Thursday 26 March 09 11:35 UTC (UK) » |

I haven't joined GOONS yet but will do so in the near future. I have decided to do a one name study of the surname UREN and all variants. Originally from Cornwall, UK, this name has spread far and wide.
Looking forward to hearing from anyone who is researching this name.
Regards CP

Hi Dave
When did your Thomas and Rebecca (JAMES) UREN emigrate to Australia? I have checked the Cornwall Census records and can't find them in the 1861 Census. You obviously don't know the parents of Thomas UREN or where he was born in Cornwall, so that makes it difficult. Do you have their marriage certificate? The witnesses usually give you a few more leads.
I thought I would also mention that the JAMES surname is also one which I am researching so maybe we can pursue that a bit later.
I will do some checking and get back to you.
Regards CP

Hi
We have a Bennet Uren Born appox 1829 in our tree.
He married Elizabeth Grace Reed who lived at Pennance, Gwennap, Cornwall
Marriage: Marriages Sep 1852 ~~~~~~~~ Reed Elizabeth Grace Redruth 5c 397 UREN Bennet Redruth 5c 397
Elizabeth death Name: Elizabeth Grace Uren (nee Reed) Est Birth Year: abt 1829 Year of Reg: 1878 Qtr of Reg Apr-May-Jun Age 49 District: Redruth County: Cornwall Volume: 5c Page: 171
They had a daughter Elizabeth Grace Uren Born 1854 also living at Pennance, Gwennap, Cornwall
This is Bennets family living and Wedron in 1841
Martin Uren 45 Dorithey Uren 47 Sampson Uren 21 Dorithey Uren 15 Bennet Uren 12 Salley Uren 10 Henry Uren 8 Jane Uren 6 Welmat Uren 4
In the 1851 census I have to assume the parents had died and Bennett was now the Head of the house when they moved to Gwennap. They are also living in Pennace. So I think this is the Bennet my ELizabeth Grace Reed Married.
Bennet Uren 22 Henry Uren 17 Dorthey Uren 24 Sarah Uren 19 Jane Uren 16 Welmot Uren 9
next door to them are other Urens so its possible and very likely they are related.
Cannot find Bennet in the 1861 or 1871 census even though Elizabeth still states herself as married. Elizabeth and daughter where still living in her parents house in these 2 census with (Joseph Reed and Elizabeth Reed)
regards Floozy

Hi Cornishpasty, We have quite a lot of information from Edward James Uren (born about 1857 Lelant, Cornwall), down our line. But only a reference in the Queensland death index of Edward James Uren (Died 30 June 1930) to Thomas Uren and Rebecca James listed as parents.
It would be most appreciated if you could help us trace the line further back.
Interestingly, Edward James Uren not only had a mother named Rebecca James. but his second wife was Elizabeth James (born abt 1878 in Brynaman, South Wales. They were married on the 27 July 1904 in Rockhampton Qld Australia

Hi Floozy, I've struck out with matching any of your Urens, thanks for replying, you never know. There must have been lots of them. If it helps you. Our Australian connection is in Charters Towers Qld. David Fredrick Uren married Margaret Uren 21May 1919
Cheers David

Hi Dave
Your Edward James UREN was christened on 26 November 1854, Uny Lelant, Cornwall. His parents are definitely Thomas UREN and Rebecca (although her maiden name isn't given).
Thomas UREN's parents 'could be' Thomas and Jane UREN. I'm not certain of this yet.
I think it would help if you let me have as much information as possible regarding this family, where born, approximate years etc., as it will save me a lot of time searching for them in Cornwall if they were already in Australia. Do you know when they arrived in Australia?
I have a lot of Thomas URENs and they aren't easy to link up, so every little snippet of information will be helpful.
Will get back to you as soon as I can.
CP

Hi Floozy,
Thanks for all your information. I haven't come across a Bennet Uren yet, so this family is music to my ears. I will get back to you as soon as I find anything relevant, and that may not be until well after Easter.
Thanks for your contribution. Regards CP

Uren is not my direct family line.
Elizabeth Grace Reed (married to Bennet) was my GG Grandfathers sister.
dont know what happened to Bennet Uren after 1851 or their daughter Elizabeth Grace Reed Uren after 1871.
However Elizabeths 2 brothers came out to Australia John Reed My gg grandfather and Richard and families. It was them gold mining years.
Other members of Elizabeths sister 's family Constance Carvolth (nee Reed) came out to australia in later years.

Hi, I know this will not help with your family history but I must tell you that my wife and I wrote regularly to a Mrs Uren a lovely lovely lady who lived on St Michaels Mount until ill health caused her to move to Marazion. We met her almost every year for about 20 years and exchanged small gifts etc. I do not have the exact years we were friends but it was approx 1970 -1990ish she was very proud of the fact her late husband was the main player in keeping the causeway in good repair and often said he actually built part of it. Regards Tom
