I'm looking for information about Henry Dunstan. In particular about his birth/baptism and direct ancestors - I'd like to know his mother's surname and who his grandparents were.
In the 1841 census he is aged 15, living with James Dunstan, flour miller (43), and Elizabeth (40), whom I take to be his parents, seven siblings, and two servants at Pennancae, Gwennap.
In 1851, aged 25, copper miner, he is living with five of his siblings in 76 Pennance, Gwennap, all said to be born in Perranworthal. I infer that both James and Elizabeth must have died between 1841 and 1851.
In 1853 he marries Elizabeth Ann Ripper (baptised 25 December 1828 in Redruth, parents Daniel Ripper and Elizabeth Pearse), and they have five children.
After the 1861 census, when they were in Redruth, they move to Ulverston, Lancashire, where Henry dies in 1867.
I am struggling with which places are in which parishes.
There's a baptism of Henry Dunstan, parents James and Elizabeth, in Stithians on 18 October 1825, but according to GENUKI Perranarworthal is a parish in its own right, not part of Stithians.
Any suggestions, please?
