David Lake born c. 1840, Plymstock
« on: Monday 23 March 20 14:40 GMT (UK) »
Hello,

David was living in Plymstock in 1841, with his mother Mary and his siblings. His father John was a stonemason. I haven’t found a birth certificate for him, and have struggled to find christenings for any of the children, except Robert Lake (b. 1831). I’ve searched FindMyPast. Would anyone be able to help me please?

I’d appreciate any help!

Thanks! I didn’t manage to find any others. Just typical, that my ancestor is the one missing ;D he’s with them all on the 1841 Census and then on the 1851 Census in Guernsey.

Wow! Thanks for that. That explains why it couldn’t be found.

Also I just realised he was baptised on Jersey! Must’ve lived there before they moved to Guernsey. Fascinating.
