Thanks for the reply. I had no information whatever about Mary Jane and would be delighted to receive anything you care to share.

Hi Henwood descendants...

Wondering if your family are attached to mine. You mention locations which have come up for my Henwood family.... St Blazey and Portsea Island... which seem far from each other but I mapped my family.... they moved a lot so I need to dig deeper.

My ancestor is Eliza Henwood (may have been known as Mary), she married Peter Garland (My Garland family have strong ties to St Agnes.... Liskeard

Eliza Henwood is the daughter of

John Henwood (born 1791 in Gwennap and Elizabeth Sleeman born 1785 in South Hill (Callington?)
Eliza was born 1813 in Calstock.

Eliza married Peter Garland in St Blazey but another record (the actual record) says they were married on Portsea Island in 1837.... which is more likely the correct record.


Would love to compare family info... thanks

Hi,

My grandmother was a Henwood, and they go back to Cornwall.  My 2nd great-grandfather was Thomas, who moved around a lot!  He was in St Blazey, Par, Portland, and by 1861 he had been posted to Weybourne in Norfolk.  I have no record of Garland though.  I'm sending a link to his profile so you can work around to see if there is a link.  https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Henwood-102
