Cornwall Lookup Requests / Re: Matthews of Falmouth
« on: Friday 08 April 11 00:01 BST (UK)  »
Thanks for both replies - so quick!

1841 lists them on Church St(?) in Falmouth, and 1851 has Basset Street, Falmouth.

John James, John's son and my line, married Charlotte Elizabeth Weston from Kent.
He was a druggist apprentice and then later a druggist.
Two sons were born in England.
Then a daughter and son were born in the States (Evansville Indiana and/or New York state)
Then one son and one daughter born in Ontario, Canada (Muskoka and/or Toronto).

Cornwall Lookup Requests / MATTHEWS of Falmouth

Hi, this is my first post here, and I'd appreciate any help you can give.

I think that John Matthews born around 1801, a mariner, in Cornwall may be my great great great grandfather.
He married Sarah (born around 1796), and they had at least 3 children:

Mary Jane born around 1828
John James born around 1833 < my line
Emily born around 1838

1841 census seems to place them in Falmouth, Cornwall.
John James moved from England to the US before settling in Canada, ending up in Toronto.

Thanks for any help or advice you can give, Jeff
