DUNSTAN in Redruth
« on: Saturday 30 October 04 00:22 BST (UK) »
trying to find out about

Henry Dunstan and Elziabeth Ripper and their children

John Charles Dunstan
William Daniel Ripper Dunstan
Alfred Pierce Dunstan
Mary Elizabeth Dunstan
James Dunstan

They moved in between 1866 and 1867 to Ulverston in Lancashire to work in the Iron ore mines. I have loads on them once in Ulverston

Any help would be appreciated

Best wishes
Michelle

Thanks for the information. Sorry I am very grateful and no you are not wasting your time. I will add it to my ever growing family tree.

The original email was probably bounced. As i receive a lot of messsages from other organisations.  I always reply and say thank you when I have received a message


Thank you once again
Michelle

Hi Michelle I have been through the discs for 41 and 51 census Redruth and just cant seen to locate Henry Dunstan at all in Redruth...I believe I have found Elizabeth in both though there r contradictions.......  ::)

1851 Census

HO107/1915 Folio 170 Page 29
Grant Court
Redruth Cornwall


RIPPER Daniel Head 58 (Place of Birth Unreadable) Cornwall ? and Copper Miner
RIPPER Elizabeth 42 Wife (Place of Birth Unreadable) Cornwall
RIPPER Elizabeth Dau 22 b Redruth Cornwall Dress Maker
RIPPER Mary 13 Dau b Redruth General Servant

Now in that one one would expect Elizabeths age to be around 50 but it sure looks more like a 4 than a 5 to me  ??? written before Daniels occupation is something starting with a Pa (Mayb Pauper) precedes Copper Miner Basically the whole entry is a shocker to try to read

Now 41 is quite clear my problem here is Elizabeth is 3   ??? ...clear as a bell where it should b more like 12 and there should be Mary 3 who isnt there.....  ??? yet it is certainly the same people (Unless they mixed up there kids and this is Mary at home and Elizabeth is somewhere) LOL

1841 census does not list Places of birth only yes or no for in or outside the county no relationships r listed and adult ages can be rounded down in multiples of 5

HO107/143 Folio 14 Page 36
Cock Pit
Redruth Cornwall


RIPPER Daniel 45 Yes Copper Miner
RIPPER Elizabeth 40 Yes
RIPPER Elizabeth 3 Yes

Dont know that it has helped much but it does give u Elizabeths Father if nothing else

Cheers Kris  ;D
