Ann/Nancy Harry = George Gummow

[Lazarus]

My Ann Harry bpt 25 March 1802 d/o William Harry and Isabel Trethewy of St Stephen in Brannel , is thought to have married George Gummow/Gummough 5 Aug 1822.
I think there may have been three children: John 1822 ,  Richard 1823 and Thomas c1836.

Ann Gummow was living with her sons Richard and Thomas at Terras in 1851. She died 1856.

I am trying to discover what became of George Gummow.
Any help appreciated.

Cornwall OPC Database is showing 3 baptisms to George  Ann:

2 Dec 1822  John
22 Oct 1823 Richard
5 Mar 1826 Elizabeth

Possible death?
19 Oct 1828  at Probus
George Gummow, age 53

or

11 June 1844  at Probus
George Gummow, age 30

Thanks for your help
I think Nancy/Ann Gommow was living with her son Richard and his wife Mary also another son Thomas bC1836 , at Terras according to 1851 Census . I need confirmation that this is her.
Also can't find Thomas.Is he s/o Nancy/Ann ?

I am still looking for George Gummow but seems likely he died Probus 19 Oct 1828 aged 53.
Nancy/Ann looks to have died Dec Qtr 1856 and buried 20 Nov 1856 aged 53.

This appears to be George bpt 24 May 1775 Ladock. I am assuming it is the same person.

With thanks.

Thomas (in 1851) is the son of Richard & Mary!

[Lazarus]

Could Richard have fathered Thomas at 13 ?

[KGarrad]

The column on the census form is headed "Relation to Head of Family", and he is entered as "Son"?
Stranger things have happened!

However, I can't see a baptism for Thomas Gummow/Gummoe?

Aha!
FreeBMD shows:
December qtr 1839
Redruth district     vol 9, page 250

Gummow, Thomas


Thomas on the 1851 census was 13 years old - so born c1838?

Trudieg - you definitely have the wrong George!

'Your' John was bc.1844 St. Stephens, son of a George and Elizabeth.

This George is shown on 1851 census as bc.1813 St. Colomb Major and according to FreeReg this must be his baptism:

George Gammow bp.11/1/1815 St. Colomb Major, son of John (labourer) and Joanna.

George married Elizabeth Strongman 4/4/1840 St. Colomb Major (he son of John, she dau. of a John).
