Perranuthnoe Mic(t)ells
« on: Saturday 07 July 12 15:22 BST (UK) »

I could do with a little help on my Mitchell/Michell ancestors from Perranuthnoe who I have been tracing through Parish records. My last certain ancestor is Henry born 1736 to John and Mary who were married in 1722. Which John is open to question as there were two baptised at Perranuthnoe that would fit. One in 1704 and one 1700 which is my guess given the marriage date. John's father was Thomas born 1673 and his father Tobias. here the trail runs out as there is no Tobias or Michell in Perranuthnoe that I can find before 1664. Tobias was married to Elinor Dielaragetto in 1665. Does it mean that he came from another Parish? On the IGI there is one Tobias Mitchell from Gwinear born around 1642. If anyone couls help with these problems or point me in the right direction i would be grateful.
Kind Regards
Geoff

do you have the 1751 will of John Michell, yeoman of Perranuthnoe ref AP/M/2 ? If it mentions siblings it may help to work out which family is which.

Thanks for that. Will look that up and see if i can get a copy. Unfortunately I dont think it would tell me which John Michell it is.
Have deleted my entry in general and issued an apology. I put it in the wrong section.

it would tell you who he left bequests to and you could work out a picture of the family from that. Family names may help. You need more than just parish entries to cope with common names like John Mitchell.

The strange thing is there are no John Michells that I can find buried in parish records around 1751 in Perranuthnoe or surrounding parishes?

he could have died away from home and been buried there. The will is in the record office index, so it refers to someone.

The updated FamilySearch has scans of some parish records

https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/show#uri=http://www.familysearch.org/searchapi/search/collection/1769414

There are transcriptions of some records are available on the opc database, coverage isn't complete.

Or it could be that the burial was in a parish where the register is illegible or missing.
