who was Ann Brake Walden?
« on: Monday 23 December 19 13:19 GMT (UK) »
My GGGmother's brother Dr Robert Shield married Ann Brake Walden in St Germans district (which I think is effectively Saltash) in the 4th quarter of 1843.
She was buried in Clun, Shropshire (where he was in general practice) 11 Dec. 1847, aged 32 which implies she was born in 1815.  Can anyone help me find who her parents were and where she was born -- not necessarily Cornwall at all, but I have nothing else to go on.

I thought I was on to something when I found a Grace Brake Walden of the same age, daughter of Job Walden.  But she was marrying a Mr Brake, so perhaps was tacking his name on to hers (though it must have been unusual in those days; possibly she was marrying a cousin).  And anyway there were surprisingly many named Job Walden.

She's in my "not found" list, so I must have looked in vain.
It's a pity she didn't live long enough to appear in 1851, which would presumably have told us at least where she was born.
