United States of America / Re: US Death Records
« on: Wednesday 20 June 07 15:49 BST (UK) »
Hi both, thank you for your replies - the rootsweb thing is me yes... He was born 10 July 1892 and his occupation has been listed as Engineer, Mining Engineer and Railway Engineer in various places. I'm not sure if he and my Great Grandmother divorced - but she defnitely returned to England (bringing her 3 children back with her) so they separated or divorced - I can't find a divorce record either. We believe he stayed in the US, but I guess we can't be 100% sure - and unfortunately I have no idea if he died pre or post 1937? I've seen both Frederick Pengilly and Pengelley that Peggy has pointed out to - but the dates aren't right and our Fred was born in Cornwall, England- so I didn't delve any further with them. Our surname is regularly spely incorrectly - Pengilley, Pengelly, Pengelley, Penguilly - ao I have tried all the alternative spellings as well.
The last known existence of him is the 1930 US Federal Census - I guess I'll just have to wait for the 1940 to see if he was still around by then?
Thank you

United States of America / US Death Records
« on: Wednesday 20 June 07 13:00 BST (UK) »
Can anyone help me? I'm trying to find the death record of Frederick Pengilly (also known as Fred Pengilly and possibly misspelled as Pengelly) - last known residence Gila, Arizona (1930 US Federal Census). I have no idea when he died - only that he must have by now he was born 1892. I've tried ancestry.co.uk and Arizona Genealogy Online. How do I go about finding the death record? He emigrated to the US in 1912 (I found him on the Ellis Island Website) - does that mean he would have had a social security number? Or would an Immigrant to the US not be entitled to one?
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated...

Completed Census Requests / Jno
« on: Tuesday 23 January 07 21:36 GMT (UK) »
This might have been asked before and I may be being stupid? But if I see "Wm" on a census it indcates the person's name is William. What if I see "Jno", what would their name be?
Thanks
Thanks

Cornwall / Cornish Names...
« on: Thursday 09 February 06 21:23 GMT (UK) »
We all know the "Tre, Pol and Pen are true Cornishmen", but I am wondering if anyone would know why my Cornish family have a lot of Cardell, Carnell and Carkeek as middle names. Is 'Car' also a common surname prefix in Cornish surnames, or are these forenames? If anyone knows where these names could come from I'd be interested.
Thanks...
Thanks...

Ignore the still born theory UKGirl, I've just read your link to what's actually in the birth certificate.

If they are most definitely twins, as I am now convinced they are, I would have to hazard a guess Charles was born first, because he has been named after his father.
UKGirl, I'm not sure, just guessing, but if it is normal to only put times on multiple births could possibly a second child have been still born or something like that?

Thank you Barbara F, this is all now fitting together rather nicely. Although, I really wasn't aware of any Emily S (although I am wondering if this is in fact J for Emily Jane), I think I have found her death registered in 1874 at 15 years old? I am in the fortunate position of having a rather unusual (well not so unusual in Cornwall) surname which does make all this a little easier.
And also, Andrea, thank you, I have now ordered a number of certficates (Birth, Marriage and Death).

Really Barbara F?
That would be absolutely fantastic. If they are in the same household and are the same age - they must be twins!
I would love the details, thank you...
