Hi Gordon, thank you for your message.  I've found the burial of Henry now so that seems fine, but I've now found another burial for Ann which does tie up in the end with what I know.  It's a burial on December 14th in Gwennap, says she was living in Penryn, and is aged 72.  This does tie up as I then remembered her daughter Catherine may have been living in Penryn as she was married to a baker who started his business in Penryn and then moved to Falmouth.  I wondered if she would be living with her daughter after the death of her husband.  I then found the probate record which confirmed that her daughter Catherine was the executor.  Wonderful when it all comes together!  Thank you again for your help.  Juliet

Gordon was where Henry was living when he died. Glad you've managed to sort things out!

Oops!  Yes, I see that now.  I looked up Gordon, and found that it might have been where the brickworks was at Gwennap?  Does anyone know?
