JULIAN (surname) - Long shot

[Kin-getter]

Embarking on (for me) a brand new area of research with names I'm not familiar with, so begining with some wild guesswork.

I sense the surname JULIAN is not (nor has been) uncommon in Cornwall. I therefore wonder if there are any JULIAN researchers here who might help identify the line of Julians I'm working on, the first one being a William Ball JULIAN who married an Annie Martha TYDEMAN in Suffolk 1891.

Thanks for any help.

James.

Hi James,

Julian is certainly rather common in Cornwall but are you sure William Ball Julian is from Cornwall? I ask as the only birth for a William Ball Julian I can see states he was born in Cardiff Wales Sep 1/4 1862 11a 200 

Do you have any further information from census etc?

Cheers Kris

Hi Kris, thankyou.

No I was anything but certain, hence "Long shot" in the title  - I had no census info and from random searching noted the number of Cornish Julians.  I'm certain that the person you found is the correct one because I have a note saying Cardiff, but it looked as though maybe he'd moved there.
I have also apossibility that he died 1971'ish in Wiltshire but no confirmation as yet.
Do you have that?

I'm most grateful,

James.

Hi James,

Looking at the 1871 Census I do note that William's parents were Cornish

RG10/5364 Folio 101 Page 1
Ely Road
Llandaff
Glamorgan Wales

JULIAN William Head 33 Mar b Bodmin Cornwall Gardener
JULIAN Selina Wife 33 Mar b Little Petherick Cornwall
JULIAN John Son 11 b Little Petherick
JULIAN William Son 8 b Landaff Glamorgan Scholar
JULIAN George Son 6 b Llandaff Scholar
JULIAN Elizabeth Jane dau 3 b Llandaff

If this is your William b 1862 it would seem highly unlikely he would have lived until 1971ish

The family must have moved soon after young John's birth

Don't see Selina's baptism but given the census entries this appears to be the Marriage of her parents

John BALL = Sally Sandry OSBORN 24 Feb 1833 Little Petherick

Now Sally was born in Padstow - one of my parishes of interest

Sally Sandry OSBORN bap 27 Dec 1810 Padstow parents Thos and Betsey

Thomas OSBORN otp Bachelor = Betsy SANDRY otp spinster by Banns 1 Mar 1810 Padstow Tomas signed Betsy signed with her mark witnesses Thomas Hawkey and Richard Dunn Williams

Now back to William. I note that by the information provided in the 1891 census the marriage to Annie Tydeman appears to be his second marriage

RG12/2048 Folio 114 Page 32
St Ronans Lodge
Old Bath Rd
Cheltenham

JULIAN William Head 28 Widow b Llandaff Wales Gardener
JULIAN William Son 3 b Timborrcome[sic] Somerset
JULIAN Florence Dau 4 b Timborrcome

There is the marriage of a William in Cardiff in Dec 1/4 1884 11a 442 (Elizabeth Dodd or Annie Lindsay) No deaths I can easily see in places of interest to clarify who it may have been.

The family are back in Llandaff with William's family nearby in 1901 (dad is still gardening too) which does seem to verify this earlier marriage
