Title: Lookup please 1841 census JAMES Family
Post by: angel24 on Friday 14 August 09 15:38 BST (UK)
Hello, I am slowly losing my sight and find it hard now to navigate,
i am hoping someone could do a lookup for me
I am desperate to find a RICAHRD JAMES & Wife MARGARET in the 1841 census at LUDGVAN CORNWALL,
I am particularly looking for MARY ANN JAMES Christened 1836

the other children were JANE chr. 1830, JOHN chr. 1832, william chr.1840

I have a hugh brickwall in my tree, my Mary Ann James my GG Grandmother married in Victoria Australia and died 1899 age 66 and on her death certificate it says her Father was Richard James and Margaret Viguers i can not find anything on her parents or siblings
any help would be really appreciated

Thank You
Cuddles

worth a look at the IGI - Ludgvan registers go back to the 17th C, and altho I cant exactly match a Richard's baptism, I noticed in the 1841, a John James aged 80 and a Margaret aged 75 - next door to your Family ...

I wondered if the 1851 census might reveal more about their PoBs - as a marriage isnt evident in the IGI, so maybe Margaret came from further afield ..... but it seems not.

1851 - HO107/1917; Folio: 213; Page: 13 - Ludgvan

they all state 'Gulval' as their PoB.

Thank you ao much for your census lookup for my James Family,
I think this might be them, as Mary was not on the census with them in 1851,
because she came to Australia 1850, so i will try and follow this Family

I really appreciate your help
Regards Patricia (angel 24)
