Look up request: BARRETT
« on: Sunday 04 September 16 15:06 BST (UK) »
Hello everyone, I was wondering if you could help me with a look up request in Cornwall, I believe in the Gwennap or Carharrack area.
So far I know this for certain: Raymond Treweek Barrett was born 29th May 1899 in Gwennap, Cornwall. He later moved to Bristol and married Lilian FK Jukes.
The area I am stuck on is with his father and grandfather. From my research, both are called Joshua Barrett and I think they were born in 1822 & 1873 but from there my research is unconfirmed. I've tried the parish records, but all I could find was Joshua Barret Jr's record of marriage to Mary Sawle Treweek. The groom was from Carharrack and the bride was from United Mines.
Can anyone help me with my research at all? Thank you!!!

Maybe this one in 1871 Bedminster

Jane Barrett wife 30 (no husband listed)
Ellen daughter 10
Charles son 1

But that doesn't fit with the marriage in 1865 unless Ellen came from somewhere else

the 1865 marriage was in St Mary's Cardiff, Joshua aged 40, a widower, master mariner, his father William Barrett, a labourer. Jane's age given as 26 ad her father James, confirming census entry.

Possible 1871 census off Plymouth for Joshua senior on board the vessel Victoria, of Bristol, he is noted as master aged 49 & married RG10/2124 folio 151, his birthplace showing as Devon, T?eamington? possibly Fremington?
