Looking for Mary PENPRASE or PINPRAZE in Camborne

[G_B_W]

It is curious that the connection to the Billing name persists over 7 generations. I notice from the link to the marriage that the bride made her mark rather than signed the certificate. Presumably the family must have been quite humble, yet the connection to the name was important enough to last until the present day.

without knowing how many older children the Billings had & possibly paid to educate, I think it's impossible to judge. Girls were educated at home by their mothers usually.
 It may have been a respected family in the area. There was a Thomas Billinge in the parish at the time of the Protestation Oath in 1641-2
