Cornwall Lookup Requests / ARTHUR family of St Column Minor

« on: Monday 03 January 11 15:27 GMT (UK) »

Hi,

Could I request a look up for the Parish baptism records for St Columb Minor

I am trying to see if there is a connection between the following Arthurs'

I have

Aaron Arthur - son of William and Mary Arthur ( nee Tregonning) baptised 1822.
and his various Descendants - ( my immediate ancestors) all in St Columb Minor

Nancy Arthur - daughter of William and Mary Arthur born 1813.

There is also a William Arthur born 1811 on the 1841 St Columb Minor Census - and I was wondering if he could be connected to Aaron and Nancy.

He is listed with wife Ann in 1841, and also with a Betsy Arthur - age 60 - is this his mother ?
William and Ann have son called Aaron so I am assuiming there may be a connection some how.

Any suggestions/help gratefully received.

Regards

Janet

Cornwall Lookup Requests / St Columb Major Graves

« on: Sunday 04 April 10 22:24 BST (UK) »

Hi,

Can any one advise how I could find the location of my family graves in St Columb Major. I know from my father his (May) Aunts are all buried in a row and the graves date around 1916 - 1920, and his grandfather Richard James May is also buried there somewhere.

I am based in Hampshire, and so at present can not come to Cornwall, so wondered if there is someway I can get a burial plan for the Cemetery etc.

Any help gratefully received.

Cornwall Lookup Requests / Richard James MAY and Family - Tregony

« on: Tuesday 06 May 08 20:40 BST (UK) »

Hi,

I am trying to I may find a trace of My Great Grandfather Richard James May, of Tregony in the 1881 census.

He was born 1872, son of William May and his wife Jane Miners.

William and Jane are on 1871 census in Tregony, with older children, William Henry and Malinda. Address 39 Fore Street.

In 1891 census the family is also in Tregony, with additional family members born after 1881, including 18 year old Richard James May. Address Agin Court.

However, I can not find any trace of the family members in 1881,( having tried various search options). I wonder if any one can offer any suggestions on where I may be able to find the family in 1881.

Thanks

Janet

Cornwall Completed Lookup Requests / Look up Newlyn East - Emily MAY and Ann MAY

« on: Monday 07 May 07 10:24 BST (UK) »

Hi,

Looking for info on possible marriage or death in Newlyn East for Emily May, born Dec 1859, twin sister of my GGrandmother Clara May.

I have her in 1861 with parents Samuel and Elizabeth and in 1871 in household of Peter and Ann Burt. Can not find her in census after that? There is a Emily May age 18, born Cornwall as a Housemaid in Murray household, Middlesex on 1881 census, which may be her?

I believe Clara May her sister is possibly also a servant in Catling household in Enfield,Middlesex age 21, born Cornwall on 1881 Census.

By 1885 Clara was back in Cornwall and married to James Arthur.

Also looking for parentage/ baptismal record of Ann May, married to Peter Burt. Believe she was born 1846 in Newlyn according to census. Am pretty sure she is not a sister of Emily and Clara, but believe she is related somehow, possible Aunt or Cousin.

All info much appreciated.

Thanks

Berkshire / Curwen Family of Wokingham.

« on: Tuesday 27 March 07 17:20 BST (UK) »

Hi,

I have just discovered that my GGxgrandfather, William Frederick Curwen, came from Wokingham born 1824, and then moved to Hammersmith / Lambeth areas.

Believe his parents are John Curwen, from Wokingham/ Berkshire and Elizabeth Wallen. Also think he had a brother John Eldred Curwen, born 1822 but can not clarify this from census records.

Does anyone have info on these people that may help me ? espccially parentage of John Eldred and William Frederick?

Many thanks

Janet

Cornwall Completed Lookup Requests / St Columb Minor Death record - Arthur

« on: Monday 15 January 07 09:55 GMT (UK) »

Hi,

Can some kind person do a look up for me and try to help breakdown a brickwall.

I am trying to find the date of death for William Arthur, born 1779 in St Columb Minor. ( my great x 3 grandfather)

I have found William on the 1851 census in St Columb Minor with wife Mary and daughter Nancy. William's age is given as 75.

Mary died in 1855 but I can find no trace of Williams death or of him on the 1861 census.

There is a death in 1857 of a William Arthur, but the death certicate shows this is not him as this William is aged 44 and died in St Breock.

Could it be his death wasn't registered?

Thank you so much in advance for your help.

Janet ( nee Arthur)
