Cornwall / Looking for help with Minnie Richards
« on: Tuesday 27 November 12 22:00 GMT (UK)  »
Looking for parents of Minnie Richards born July 21, 1874 in Redruth.  She married John Bartle who according to US census records was born in New Jersey but his parents were from England (possibly John Bartle married to Mary Opie?).  According to her obituary, she came to America and settled in Ishpeming, Michigan in 1900.  I would greatly appreciate any help that can be given!  Kim

Cornwall Lookup Requests / Susanna WOOLCOCK married to James KNIGHT
« on: Monday 22 August 11 21:05 BST (UK)  »
Looking for parents of Susanna Woolcock and James Knight who married on July 1, 1832 in Calstock.  They had a son William Henry Knight born 1842 or 1847.  William died September 14, 1911 in Ishpeming, Michigan and his death record lists an approximate birth year as 1847.  His obituary also didn't give any better information.  Through some searches, I believe James and Susanna were his parents.  Hope I'm on the right track.  Thanks for taking a look at this request.

I just got back from the County Clerk's office.  The information you guys found confirmed what was on the death record for brother James.  Unfortunately William's death record is a mess.  His wife is listed as his mother.  His father is listed as Henry Brewer.  I feel certain that we have the correct information with James' record and a major transcription error with William - ugh!!  Next I am going to the public library to look up obits!  Thanks again for all your help.  Kim

Emigration was to Ishpeming, Michigan.  I will attempt to travel to the County Clerk's office next week and see if I can take a look at the death record to gather some more information.  This was all I was able to find from his obituary.  Sorry for the lack of information - but thank you all so much for taking a look at this request.  I will update next week with hopefully better information after my travels.

Wonderful!  I found them! Can you explain what it means when the word "full" is used for the age for marriage instead of their actual age?  Also it appears that I found Eliza Matthews in the Widows Book.  Can you tell me what that is?  Thank you again for your fantastic help!  Kim

No information was listed on William's obituary other than Cornwall as place of birth.  His wife Jane was born August 9, 1862 in England.  That's all the information that was given for her as well.  I was able to determine that they married around 1886 from a census report.  He emigrated in 1879.  Sorry for such sketchy information but that's all I've been able to dig up.
