Title: Lelean Richard M. born Cornwall 1828 - Married in Guernsey
Post by: Lance Matthews on Friday 15 February 19 17:38 GMT (UK)
I am looking for the marriage of Richard Martin Lelean born 1828 who married Julia ??? between 1854 and 1857 at St.Peter Port, Guernsey. I can find him in the 1861 census, with family, shown as coal merchant. I think Julia ?? was born on Guernsey about 1830. Any help would be most appreciated. Their children were, Julia G, Margaret M, Richard M, Sarah M & Alice M.

1851 census Julia is with parents in St Peter Port, her father John also a coal merchant. HO107/2530 folio 23 pg 7.

There is another Julia slightly younger in St Peter Port with father Thomas but she is still unmarried in later census entries.

Many thanks. I also found the family name of Guilbert, for Julia. Richard M. Lelean is also shown as a coal merchant in one of the census records.
