Hi, I have a William Hoskin b Langennith b. 1833 but I suspect this might be his christening date and maybe born 1831
In 1841 census he is living with his parents. Thomas 71 and Jane 45. There is a big difference in age here, but another census confirms that they are married. Siblings Robert 14, Amelia 13, Thomas 9 Jane 3. The address looks like Tile House Burry Green. Thomas is a farmer. This is the only census that William is living with parents.
In 1851 there is a POSSIBLE census record for William as a farm servant to another farmer at Llqnmadrock, not sure where this is.
In 1861 there is another POSSIBLE census record. If this is correct then William has a wife Elizabeth and they are living in Dunns?? Oystermouth. William is down as a seaman. I believe that there were two children here but cannot confirm this.
In 1863 William is down in Cornwall marrying a Cornish lass called Jane Butler and they go on to have several children. William states widower on marriage cert and that his father is a butcher.
William is a seaman but essentially stayed living in Cornwall after thi marriage, well that's where all the children were born.
I cannot find William in any other census
I cannot find a death for Elizabeth, if indeed this is the right entry, or any children belonging to her. I presume that they married in Wales.
Also, has anybody got access to Llangennith parish records. I would love to know a bit more about William's father Thomas and further back of course OR can you point me in the direction of any CD I might purchase to find this out. My brain is getting a bit scrambled on this man.
