Henry ROBERTS & MARY ?
« on: Wednesday 03 October 12 02:37 BST (UK) »
Can anyone help? I am looking for siblings and ancestors of Henry Roberts b. 1851 Cornwall. d, 9.7.1926 N.Z.
When he emmigrated to N.Z. in 1872 it states he was a blacksmith, when he died he was a hairdresser.
On his death cert it says parents are Henry Roberts and Mary Hall, that his father was a farm labourer.
His mother Mary died in St Dennis on 24.11.1883 age 71. His father Henry died abt 1886 in St Dennis.
I cannot find a Hall but a Mary Hore is matching in with dates.

From 1871 census:
Reference RG10, Piece 2267, Folio 44, Page 17
St Lawrence, St Dennis, Cornwall

Roberts, Henry  Head  M  55  b Clay Labourer  b St Dennis
Roberts, Mary  Wife  F  57  b Roche
Roberts, Richard  Son  M  22  Clay Labourer  b St Columb
Roberts, Henry  Son  M  20  Blacksmith  b St Columb
Roberts, John  Son  M  17  Clay Labourer  b St Columb

That would China Clay works!


Cornwall-OPC-database (.org) shows these baptisms:

All at St Columb Major; All to parents Henry & Mary Roberts

26th January 1845    William  residing at Quoit Lane, father's occupation: Streamer    born 29th December 1844
15th August 1847    Elizabeth Ann  residing at Quoit Lane, father's occupation: Streamer    born July 1847
25th December 1849  Henry  residing at Quoit Lane, father's occupation: Streamer   born 1st December 1849
1st June 1851  Edward  residing at Quoit, father's occupation: Streamer   born 9th April 1851
15th September 1853  Mary  residing at Quoit, father's occupation: Streamer  born 27th August 1853
29th September 1864  Elizabeth  residing at Quoit, father's occupation: Tin Streamer  born 21st August 1864


Probable marriage?
21st May 1842  at St Columb Major
Henry Roberts, age 29, residing Quoit, Bachelor, Streamer
Mary Kessell, age 22, residing Nine Maidens, Spinster

N.B. I can't find any marriage of Roberts to Hall?

See reply #5!

His father: William, miner
Her father: William, labourer

Witnesses: Edward Kessell, Ann Kessell


Burials:
26th November 1883, St Dennis, Mary Roberts    age 71
28th October 1886, St Dennis, Henry Roberts    age 66 :-\
This is more likely:
7th November 1888, Calstock, Henry Roberts    age 72   Union Workhouse

Is there more on Henry Roberts & Mary Hore? As i see in that 1871 census pg 17 Henry age 20 blacksmith with brothers Richard and John. Mother Mary born in Roche? I have Henry snr as a farm labourer.
Really not sure which way to go as i have seen bits on Kissell as well.

When you say you have seen "bits", do you mean trees on Ancestry?

Where did you get the name Hall/Hore from?

Like I said, I can't see a marriage between a Roberts and a Hall or Hore?

I found it elsewhere looking under Mary Hore, clocked the spelling of Roberts and hopped over to BMD from there!

You wouldn't expect Roberts to be spelt any different would you.
