FLUELLEN / FLUELLING

Not sure Deb - its only 7am, I haven't got the cobwebs out yet. 
I am sure I noticed him on IGI though didn't follow up on him. I have a feeling I found him in Census but perhaps that was another possible brother of Henry. Will have to go look about 

Hopefully griphynne has ordered the cert. It really is the only thing that can tell us - besides a baptism we haven't been able to find. Perhaps a foolish assumption that it was just the date which was 2 years out in the information passed on from old research. Sounds suspiciously like father could be wrong too........Kris

Blimey DEB.....You Treasure     

It is her!!! I would put money on it. Her father wasn't Henry the Coastguard at all.

Ooh I wish griphynne was online. Where did you see Laundress? - I see dressmaker.   Hope griphynne isn't too disappointed to loose a coastguard. No doubt in my mind now this is her. With the marriage you found and then this census, even with the middle initial C included - She was elusive but when you spotted that marriage it made finding her possible.   It just has to be her. I was certainly sidetracked by Henry. Certainly goes to show we should never ever assume.........Kris

oops sorry it was dressmaker ... 

found this christening too:
SAMUEL FLEWELLEN
 28 FEB 1790   Saint Thomas The Apostle, Exeter
 parents~HENRY FLEWELLEN  and MARY

will check and see if Henry the coastguard is one of their children ...note spelling of the surname !

Most hearty thanks to both of you, Kris and Deb, for your diligence on my behalf!  It's incredibly exciting to see so many possibilities in an area I had all but given up on.  I've  not sent for a marriage cert yet because I'm not entirely sure I'm on the right track, but I did contact Tony Clark on the website that Kris provided.  Still waiting for a reply.  

I am sure all the Fluellens (and variant spellings) are connected somehow.  But the Anne Conant Fluellen I am looking for was born around 1830 and was married to John Drew, a blacksmith, in 1850, so the 1822 marriage to Samuel doesn't look like the right one to me, unless I've got the birth year wrong and the marriage to John is a perhaps a second marriage?  

John Drew and Anne Fluellen had a daughter, Mary Ann Drew in 1854 (who married Edward Benwell in 1874).  If the Samuel = Anne 1822 marriage is my Anne, that would make her pretty long in the tooth when she had Mary Ann.

At this point, I'm as confused as I am excited.  But thank you both, again.  I really am so grateful for your efforts and your input.
