Really sorry I haven't replied to this request. Completely forgot about it. I also have had to change log in name.
I only know that William Fewings/Fewins/Fuens was born in Creacombe in 1828. Yesterday I think I found the Death Certificate for his father John in 1837 in Witheridge. John was married to an Ann Styles in 1828 in Creacombe.On the map it only looks like Witheridge is a few miles from Creacombe. I also think he has a brother/cousin called James. On his marriage certificate a James Fewings is a witness.
On the 1861 census there is a James born circa 1832 born Witheridge and living in Plymouth where William was married in 1856.
I also believe that his mother remarried to Nathaniel Davey circa 1840. On the 1851 census he is living with Nathaniel and Ann and described as SonL which I think is step son. On the 1861 census he is still called Fewings/Fuens. William suddenly changed his name on the 1871 census to Davey!!!
So all I can think of is to look at the 1841 census for Witheridge to see if I can find him.
Thanking you in anticipation.
