oldest child looks to be Grace bp St Agnes 23/10/1785 & there was also an infant named Ann buried 25/1/1788 who could be theirs.

problem usually is not the ancestors, but whoever recorded the name writing it as they saw fit. Spelling of surnames wasn't standard at this time. But where would the fun be if it was all easy?

Title: CHIVELLs in Cornwall
Post by: LouiseNN on Monday 21 April 14 05:02 BST (UK)
Hi Cathy, I entered a CHIVELL query in your D'Acre/Decker forum -- sorry, brand new here and NO idea how to navigate.  I think we may have a connection -- or at least you and my husband, Christopher.  His Grandmother was a CHIVELL and I have traced this side of the family back to 1861 Cornwall, St. Agnes Parrish.  His name was James Snell CHIVELL and he was born in 1847 to Margaret SNELL and unknown CHIVELL.  I'm sure his father's name is some place, but he wasn't listed on the 1861 census.  By  1881 England Census Margaret was detailed as a widow.  James came to the States around 1865 and, as he was probably a miner as those who went before him, he was a miner in Nevada County, CA too.  He married (1898) a Martha BONNEY in California and I'm trying to find her or her father in Cornwall, too.  I look forward to hearing from you and perhaps to connecting you to my husband's family.  Sincerely, Louise Navarrette Norgaar

Hi Cathy,

George Chevall (residence St Agnes) married Elizabeth Thomas (residence Feock) on 2 Aug 1784 at Feock.

I'm a descendant of Jane Chivell & Thomas Haughton too, via their daughter Caroline. Would love to share some info with you.

Cheers,
Leandra
