RICHARD PAIN was born in FOWEY in 1780, to parents JOHN PAIN and ELIZABETH PENNEY.
He possibly had brothers named WILLIAM, RICHARD, SAMUEL and JOHN, and one sister by the name of LUCY.
At age 14 he was apprenticed as a Shipwright, and following his 7 year apprenticeship he moved to Devonport where he remained for the rest of his life. I have a copy of his apprenticeship papers which make very interesting reading.
Richard married ANN COLLOM, whom I believe came from MEVAGISSEY, although this is unproven at this point in time.
The couple had 8 children but most of these died in infancy.
The only survivors were:
ELIZABETH PAIN, born in 1807
MATILDA PAIN born in 1813 (my ancestor)
and possibly ANN PAIN born 1818
Their only two sons were named JOSEPH RICHARD PAIN & RICHARD JOSEPH, but both died in infancy.
If anyone knows anything else about this family I would love to hear from them. Diana

Don't know if this is same family but Maria Pain was born in Fowey, Mar 27, 1803. Father John Pain born abt 1770 Lostwithiel, mother Elizabeth Facey. This info was not researched by me. Maria married William Webb, Jan 1, 1825. I am from another branch of the Webb family.

Hi Blondie,
Many thanks for getting back to me on this. It certainly
looks very interesting and definitely adds some doubt to
my original informant who believed 'my' Richard's mother to be Elizabeth Penney. I will keep your information to hand in the hope that I can prove either one way or another in the future.
Happy hunting, Diana
