Hi,
A Big Welcome to RootsChat!

The name seems to appear in the Camelford district.
I see the birth and death of a Frederick Chenoweth (and variants) PROUT in 1853 and then another birth Sep 1/4 1854 5c 14 in Camelford
also note a marriage in Camelford Dec 1/4 1896 5c 19
Also death of a Frederick PROUT Sep 1/4 1900 Camelford aged 47 so all fits
Looking at 1901 I suspect his wife was Eliza LANGDON She appears in 1901 in St Teath with her family. She is aged 32 a widow. She has three children Frederic 4, Richard 2 and Samuel 2 months.
I wonder if this 4 year old may be the person you are after.
Cornwall census is free online so you could follow the parents from 1841-1891
