Title: TREEBY of Stoke Damerel/Devonport
Post by: LJR123 on Saturday 24 November 07 17:15 GMT (UK)
Hi
I am looking for information on the Treeby family of Devonport/Stoke Damerel.
In particular the following from the 1841 census.

Matilda Trieby    age 30    Ind.     born in county
Mary       "         age 10                 "     "     "
Richard    "         age 9                   "     "     "
Henry      "         age 4                   "     "     "
T/Iryphena  "    age 2                   "     "     "

Address : South side of Princes Street

Matilda's husband was believed to be William Giles Treeby.
I can find no trace of William on the 1841 census so he was either absent or had died.
I can find no trace of Matiida on the 1851 census so had either remarried,died or was absent.
Although I cannot find any deaths/remarriages for either William or Matilda.

Their daughter Mary went on to marry Henry Evans in 1858.
I don't know what happened to her siblings.

I would be grateful for any help/ideas in tracing the family.
many thanks
Lucy

Hi Wozzle,

Well done!  Brilliant find!

Well I have had a look at the age and all I can say it is an interesting squiggle ;D  I have looked on various pages for something like it and can`t see anything. 
But at least we know they were alive and kicking. 

By the way they were living at No. 36.

Regards,
Mo
