Trying to find Catherine......................

[Helina]

Jonathan Prior born 1811 St Kew, married twice and its his first wife I am trying to find.

Jonathan married his second wife Eliza Henwood in 1875, Jonathan and Catherine had one child (may be more) William Prior born 1838 Padstow.  Only information I have on Catherine is she was born in 1791, Boscastle.

Would like to know when they married and when Catherine died, any other information would be a bonus.

Any help would be appreciated.

There is a marriage entry
Johnathan Prior 10/1/1837 Padstow to Catherine Burt(t)
Hope it helps

Looks like the marriage to Catherine Burt may be the correct one

1841
Duke St Padstow Cornwall
Jonathan Prior 30 lab Y
Catherine 47 Y
George Burt 20 Shipwright App No
John Burt 13 Y
William Prior 3 Y
HO107 150 10 1 15

Wonder if Catherine had been previously married and Burt children were from that marriage??

Marriage cert should give her father's name and whether she was a widow

It looks like John Burt (from 1841 census ) was born Penzance Cornwall -by 1861 John , wife Emma and children were living in Cardiff His occupation is Shipwright

George in 1851 gives his p.o.b. as Penzance - he is married to Jane and has children (one called Catharine!) His occupation is Ship carpenter

Maybe if you can find the boys baptisms it may give father's name - and from there may find Catherine's maiden name

There are these baptisms
John Burt
16 Jan 1829
Penzance Cornwall
parents Joseph Burt and Catherine

this may be another chilld?
Lydia Burt
12 Apr 1818
Kea Cornwall
parents Joseph Burt and catherine

there is this marriage (which looks like son george's)

Marriage
21 Jun 1842 Padstow Cornwall
George Burt age 21 father Joseph Burt
Jane Symons age 21 father William Symons

one of the sons named his son Joseph -so it looks a possibility??

Can't find a marriage for Joseph and Catherine

wondered if Joseph was maybe French or German??

this looks like Catherine's death reg FreeBMD
Catherine Prior
age 81
Dec qtr 1873
Cardiff
11a 169

have just noticed in 1841 -a few doors from Jonathan and catherine is James Burt age 18 Shipwright's app b in Cornwall -living with William & Eliza Giles

wonder if he is another son??
