Hi,

I wonder if anybody is able to do a lookup for me please?

Harriet and James Ennis emigrated from St Austell, Cornwall to Adelaide sometime in 1879.  They are two of are my maternal g-grandparents.  They were married in St Austell on 28 Jan 1879 and their first son, Alfred was born in Ovingham, North Adelaide on 27 Sep 1879 (or registered on that date).  If it helps their surname may be transcribed as *Ennes* as it is on their marriage cert.

Any information gratefully received.

My Great Uncle Christopher Robins emigrated to South Africa in 1894 from St Austell, Cornwall.  He sailed to Cape Town on the Hawarden Castle which left Southampton on the 20th October 1894.

My Uncle Lewis (who called himself Gren) told me (when he was alive) that his father then travelled to the Kimberley area (possibly) where he married.  He had two sons (Lewis and Charles).  Unfortunately his wife died in SA and Christopher returned to Cornwall, when my uncle was twelve, in about 1923.

I somehow need to find the name of his wife and her date of death.  Christopher's father was a Tin Miner so I guess his son would have kept to mining. 

Any help gratefully received.

Any information on the Marriage of Joseph Brend born in Parkham in 1795 and his wife Mary also born in Parkham in about 1801.  Joseph was a Hatter and is found residing in Bideford in the 1841, 51, 61 and 71 Censuses (although by 1871 Mary appears to be dead and he is living with his daughter)

I am interested in the Brend Family in Devon.  Joseph Brend was born in Parkham in about 1795 and at the times of the 1841, 1851 and 1861 Censuses was living in Bideford.  Any information on this family and in particular Joseph's Marriage gratefully received.

Any information on the following gratefully received:

Mary Ellen Osborne aged 8 shown as a Boarder in St Ewe (and born there) in the 1901 Census.  If possible I need the names of her Mother and Father.
