Maybe Henry was abroad in 1891.


Is this Henry in 1891 - Census reference RG12  1851  69  12

FindMyPast have transcribed as "Tiner" but looks like "Truen" to me??
That was a good find :)
He is living at Kehelland where the rest of the Truan's lived and  the orignal looks like Truen if you know what you are looking for.
That surname has also had the spellings Trowan and Truran and that has made this famiy so difficult.
Added: I see the the Pendray's were living quite close to Henry.

Still think you should check out the birth of William Truran, 1874, Truro!

On the Cornwall OPC data base there's a very frustrating baptism (transcription) -
William Truran, bap 29 Mar 1874, St. Paul's Truro - but no names recorded for parents!

My Henry was born 5th March 1875.

Your opening post mentions " ...abt 1875". What's the source of the somewhat more specific "5 March 1875"?

In the FindMyPast 1939 register his name is Henry Trusa but the original document has Truan. The address where Henry and his wife were living is the same address in Annie Truan's probate.
I have have reported the error to FindMyPast.
