Completed:Frederick Truan born 1858 Lamorran

[maryanne]

Looking at my family tree I didn't realise until yesterday that Frederick Truan the son of John Thomas and Maria Truan was born or baptised in 1858, although his parents weren't married until April 1861.
How I missed this before I don't know.
I have found John Thomas in the 1861 census as single and a boarder with a family called Woodward at Trewithian Village and he was born Veryan.
I looked for Maria Ellings the wife of John in the 1861 census and found Maria living with her parents-Charles and Elizabeth at Tregenna, Lamorran, Truro, Cornwall, England.
Frederick  is  age 3 and written as a son, (to Charles and  Elizabeth )born Lamorran.
It would seem that he is the child living with Maria and John in 1871 by then age 13 and born at Lamorran and the family were living at  Perranwell.
I haven't been able to find a birth of baptism for him and I wonder if somebody could help.
Maybe he was illegitimate and John gave him his surname,who knows.
I don't want to send for a birth certificate.
Frederick married in Penponds in 1881  because  the family were living at Treswithian Downs.
which is the Camborne area.

Without a birth registration you wouldn't be able to send for a birth cert

Thanks for the replies.
No baptism for Frederick Ellens at Lamorran. I was hoping to find one,
Over time the surname has been Ellens,Hellings and Ellins.
