Cornwall / Re: HOSKYN Burial Request

I have just found information on https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/results/r/6?_q=stephen%20hoskyn which would seem to confirm that Stephen Hoskyn (1655) did indeed have a second wife and the children that I have already mentioned above.

"Short title: Hoskyn v Hoskyn.
Document type: Bill only.
Plaintiffs: Joan Hoskyn, spinster of Fowey, Cornwall, Charity Rounseval (widow of Gregory Rounseval, gent deceased) and Richard Chapman (said Joan Hoskyn and Charity Rounseval being two daughters of Stephen Hoskyn, gent deceased ate of Egloskerry, Cornwall).
Defendants: Peter Hoskyn, Philip Welsh, Richard Hornabrooke and William Hoskyn."

There are many references to Hoskyns in the documents, but I find them hard to understand. Maybe someone else can whittle out the salient information and let us know what it is...

Are we having fun yet?

I am just learning to navigate RootsChat and have found a very interesting topic here.  I am the grandchild of Charles Reginald Hoskyn of Rugby and the 7x great granddaughter of the Stephen Hoskyn (or whatever!) and Thomasine Ley to whom you are referring.  Covid has trapped me in my basement doing my (our family) tree.  I am stuck going back at Stephen's grandfather, Thomas - 1586 and would love to get some hints to help me continue.

I was aware that there was a relative in China (River Raven), but haven't followed through on that thread.  I have found out a lot about the Hoskyn Family and would be happy to share my knowledge with anyone who is interested.

As regards Jone/Jane, I have found records of children Joan b. 6.12.1692, ; Thomasin b. 19.02.1694 d. bef. 2612.1695 (burried in woollen); Charity b.21.09.1697; and Stephen b. 6.06.1699 d.bef. 7.06.1699 (burried in woollen).All of the children were baptised in Egloskerry.
