Hi All
In 1872 Hannah Trevena married William Rich in Millom. On the marriage certificate her age is listed as a Minor and her father is Josiah Trevena, a miner. In susequent census returns her birthplace is given as Camborne Cornwall.
Unfortunately I can find nothing for either Hannah or Josiah prior to 1872 in Cornwall or Cumberland, and nothing for Josiah after 1872.
Am I just not seeing them or sre they just missing?
Can anybody help please

You will find her mother (Maria) and some family in Millom in 1871.
I can find Josiah and Maria in Cornwall in 1851 HO107/1900/534/24
Same family in Calstock in 1861 RG9/1462/39/2 - but no Hannah ???
Perhaps Mary 7 in 1861 was
Births Mar 1854
TREVENA Mary Anna Redruth 5c 270
Deaths Jun 1869
TREVENA Josiah 51 Whitehaven 10b 374

Thanks Geoff
Mary Anna looks like a possibility seeing as the way Anna would have pronounced with the Cumberland accent.
I can't see Maria in 1871 in Millom, but I can see Mary Anna 17 living as a lodger with her brother in Jacktree Rd Egremont.
Also it looks like Joshia and Mariah are Josiah and Maria in 1861
Thanks for your help.

1871 Maria RG10/5268/22/37
There were so many Cornish came up to the mines in Cumberland. Moor Row (near Cleator) even has a Penzance St.

Thanks Geoff
I still can't see Maria in 1871 using The Genealogist.co.uk. I will have to wait til I get access to Ancestry again.
Thanks again
