I can't find a marriage for John and Charlotte between 1780 and 1810

I can't find a birth for John at 1760 +/- 20 years


You might need to see if you can find an Online Parish Clerks project for Cornwall, or a Family History Society.

You are reading my RESEARCH interests


it is separated from the body of the post, on a different coloured background


OH's means Other Half's


and it is MY OH's grandmother


You have no need to get that picture because it has nothing to do with you!


It is MY profile picture, and I use the Research Interest space to identify who is on there.

Densirl ... I keep thinking you are going to get up to speed ... member since 2009, 200+ posts, and you're still not with it on using the boards.

First rule of thumb: acknowledge it when people do research for you and give you the information.

Well, I guess first rule of thumb would be to read it ...

If you're by any chance reading the posts in reverse order, with the most recent at the top, switch it around and it's easier to make sense of.

If the little arrow beside "post date" up at the top is pointing Up, click on it so it points Down.

Never mind what it says under "Researching" in each person's post. That's their own personal information. Read what's in the post!

This seems to suggest she was christened non-conformist at birth, and later CofE.


Her marriage is there

Is this them in 1841??

Name: Agnes Blanden
Age: 40
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1801
Where born: Middlesex, England

Civil parish: Isleworth
County/Island: Middlesex
Registration district: Brentford

William Blanden 70
Agnes Blanden 40
Catharine Blanden 10
Elizabeth Blanden 8
Hannah Blanden 4


It says BLUNDEN on the image -- and it definitely says he was aged 70.

Where is the information "William Blunden b 1800" from??


1851 census

Name: Agnes Blunden
Age: 51
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1800
Relation: Head
Where born: Lancaster, Cornwall, England

Civil parish: Isleworth
County/Island: Middlesex
Registration district: Brentford

Agnes Blunden 51 - widow
Elizabeth Blunden 18
Hannah Blunden 14
William Leader 51 - lodger


For her place of birth it actually says Lancaston, obviously Launceston.
