Cornwall Lookup Requests / BirthRecordSearch-JACKA
« on: Monday 26 January 09 22:56 GMT (UK) »
Dear good researchers ~ I am a relatively new student of genealogy and our family history. We have a mystery not far back in the line...
I am looking for the name of the father for "Emily Thomas Jacka" born in 14 January Gwennap in 1860. Her mom was Mary Ann Jacka and we don't know if she was married to the father. She later married William Dobb (first wife was Susannah Glasson) and had two additional children with him. When he passed away, she emigrated with the children to Canada and Mary Ann then went on to Butte while Eliza stayed in Canada (Capelton Mines). Eliza died in 1903. If anyone has any thoughts or ideas, I am grateful. I have searched census records and many online sites. One person listed James Jacka as Eliza's father but that is the name of Mary Ann's father. Mary Ann's mother was Mary Ann (Blanchard) Jacka. Others in the family wondered if Thomas was the name of the father since it is included as her middle name.
Many thanks and best regards, Lorena
