(more) GREENWAY's
« on: Tuesday 13 March 07 20:10 GMT (UK) »
Hi again .... I have found what I think and hope maybe the birth/christening entry for George Greenway in 1784.   :o :D

Unfortunately, on the census returns, he has shown his POB as Veryan

I found his marriage entry to Susanna Pascoe in the Marriages at St veryan, from Phillimore Parish registers, and it says "George Greenway of RuanLanihorn"  ???

The entry I found on the IGI site is for George Greenway of St Kew, Cornwall.  The Parents are George Greenway (go figure!!) and Jane Lobb.

Is there any way or any site I can confirm this is the right one please?  Or, can anyone tell me if St Kew is the same as Veryan/Ruanlanihorne ?

There are some fantastic online sites for Cornwall - in fact, the best I have found for this type of research - unbelievable.  .. but you get so far .. and then ..... stuck!!  ::)

Veryan and Ruan Lanihorne are close but not the same. You could try the online parish clerks for the parishes
