No worries Bushy but I do have quite a bit on the Bates in my Parishes database if you want it. You can find me on the OPC pages as the OPC for St Merryn www.cornwall-opc.org/index.htm  :)

Try here Bushy

The latter may be able to help you further if you email him. I got these by typing DSM into Google and there are others.

Hi Pinetree,
Anything you want on Cornwall can usually be found at the Cornwall OPC site  ;) at http://cornwall-opc.org/index.htm We are a bunch of volunteers based all over the world and we do this because we love detection work in Genealogy  ;D

Yes I agree and have entered him as such in both cases.  Maybe his age was wrong because he was still a leading seaman and not higher vbg.  Should be possible to get their Naval records.

Further to my last.  I have the port Isaac Mark dead in 1911 in the area but he is not to be found between 1861 and 1901! Anna and Muriel are missing too and I have no deaths for them.  I wonder where they were??

I see the Anna Bate you mean with her daughter Murial and sister Mary Pope.  These girls are the daughters of Henry Pope and Joanna Brenton married 06 Oct 1855 in Padstow.  In 1891 they give their  ages as Mary Pope25 and Anna Bate 27.  HOWEVER in 1881 they appear with their parents as Mary Pope and Anna Bate and Anna is 25 and Mary is 20.  Now Anna is born in 1856 so she is very creative with her age  ::) I eventually found a marriage for her in June Quarter of 1879 to Mark Bate in Cardiff.  I believe him to be Mark Bate born 1853 in St Endellion to Samuel Bate and Mary Ann French married in Mar Q of 1846. So that probably solves that little mystery and all because she lied about her age!!

Cornwall Lookup Requests / Re: John HARRY & Mrs Margaret HAMLEY

Hi Lazarus,
Althea asked me to have a look at this as I do parish reconstruction on St Kew.  Mrs was often used to show that the woman was gentry.  I am unable to say whether Margaret Harry remarried however.  You could try looking at the Tithe apportionments for St Kew.
