November 1721 Beverley marriage: Cornwell BARON = Anne ROUNDEL widow

[Keith Sherwood]

I was wondering whether someone privy to the Beverley PR's could clear up a discrepancy between two almost similar dates on Ancestry for a wedding there between Cornwell BARON and Anne ROUNDEL widow, given as 21st November and then as 30th November 1721.  I suppose one of those dates might have been of the Banns.  Are both bride and groom Of This Parish?
Many thanks, Keith

it was the 30th

Cornwell is of Skepsea (as transcribed) and Anne was from Ouram
they were married by license.
He a Yeoman, she a Widow

The index to the license (available at http://www.york.ac.uk/borthwick/remote-services/copying/order-form)

Says they were both from Skipsea (as transcribed)

Also - the index to the license says Cornwell was 23 but no age for Ann

Thanks so much for all that valuable information, Mckha489 - and do hope I have transcribed your username correctly there!
Particularly useful is that age given for the bridegroom...

I hope I'm not trying to go to the well more often than I should, but recently I sent off to the Borthwick Institute (at great expense!) for a 1738 "probate bundle" for Cornwall Baron, who had died in 1737.  It wasn't quite the will I was expecting, seemingly a document securing some kind of financial security for and the bringing up of his 14 year old daughter Elizabeth.  He also left 4 year old and 2 year old sons.
So, I'm imagining that father Cornwall died unexpectedly (in his late thirties) and intestate.  What I'm wondering is if his wife Anne Cornwall (nee Roundel, or possibly another name before that as she was a widow when marrying Cornwall in 1721) had predeceased her husband or was she still around?
If there's a burial entry for an Anne Cornwall, therefore in Ulrome or Skipsea some time around or after 1735, I would very much like to know about it.  Many thanks, and apologies for the longwindedness of this post!

...and at what age, in 1737, would one no longer be a minor? Oh, just spotted on this difficult to read document that the age of minority ends at 21 years old.

...keeping up this conversation with myself, I notice too that a Robert Rounding and a Thomas Rounding are charged with making sure this bond(?) is kept up towards young Elizabeth, unless of course she marries.  That family name looks suspiciously similar to Roundel, mother Anne's married name.  I wonder if there's been a bit of mistranscription somewhere along the line, and in fact it is members of Anne's (married into?) family who are keeping a close eye on her three offspring now.

It’s morning here, and I am in a rush, BUT in case someone else gets to check before I do this evening,  shouldn’t we be looking for a death for Anne BARON? 

Also,  do the documents refer only to arrangements for Elizabeth? In which case, is it possible the two younger boys had a different mother?

[Keith Sherwood]

Hi again, Mckha489,
Of course it should be Anne BARON's burial entry we should perhaps be looking for, silly me!
And yes, one or two things don't look quite right, as there's a ten year gap between the baptism of daughter Elizabeth in 1723 and son Cornwall BARON in 1733. Would be very interesting to see what was going on in the PR's for Ulrome and Skipsea in these short ten years...

Only daughter Elizabeth gets mentioned in this document, yes.

burial at Barmston 27 Jan 1728
I am fairly confident it says

Anne BARRON wife of Cornwell BARRON of Ulrome

I can't post a clip on this thread
