Hi Carolyn,
Just read your thread regarding the cornwells of 2008/9 and wonder if you are still pursuing this investigation.
I am David Cornwells grand daughter , second son of George Cornwell and I personally knew George and several of the brothers and sisters. I am 79 . I do have a photograph of George somewhere in my mothers old albums (she died in 2007 aged 100) . George was well into his 90's when he died and at that time was living with Lily and Morley (real name Frank Morley one of the brothers) at "Shanklin", High st, Bottisham). I spent time with him, as most of our holidays when I was little
was in Bottisham and Newmarket.
Perhaps we can learn from each other.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Jean Sharp.

i have an Ann Riach who would be my great great grandmother who married william anderson. Ann was born in 1844 and her parents were William Riach and Janet Gordon

Are these Riachs part of your family

they originate from Dallas in Moray

again thanks for the reply.
i don't know that i will ever get to the bottom of this. iam really stuck, Isaac doesn't even appear to be a family name like a great many of them. do earlier marriage records contain fathers names as isaac was married to sarah lofts before rebekah?
is there any where i can get more info?

carolyn

thanks for that. do you know if you can purchase the cd or do they do look ups for you??

thanks for your help though

i am going round in circles with these cornwells from bottisham as i can not find my relative isaacs birth details therefore am unable to match him to any particular family. i have narrowed it down a bit i think!!
william married mary benstead in 1812
i have 3 children robert charlotte and elizabeth who i think may all have died in infancy-is there any way of checking this out.
i am taking a very wild guess that they may have had more children ??my isaac and wondering whether mary died either then or later
is anyone able to verify this or look it up anywhere

i then have a william widower marrying sarah adcock in 1832 had 2 children with sarah. sarah died and william then married ruth goodwin in1846
could this be the same william throughout.
