According to the Cornwall opc database there were two children born in Illogan to a John and Elizabeth after the marriage date of 1782

John bapt. 20 July 1783
William bapt 9 Aug 1793

Two possible baptisms for Edward

1799 Redruth John Elizabeth
1804 Illogan Edward and Elizabeth

Thanks Emeltee.

Years ago I was given a bit of info with no source.

Four children - the two you found plus an Elizabeth and an Edward - no dates or places.

Don't know why I've marked my tree with deaths for John and Elizabeth as 'after 1802' when I had not entered any dates for the four children I had.

Just one of many puzzles in Cornwall 1780 - 1810 in my tree.

The burial of John on 1 Oct 1826 is on FreeReg2 and the only ref I can find to Edward's marriage gives Ann's surname as More however there is a baptism on Cornwall opc for an Ann Moore in Redruth in 1796, daughter of Richard and Dorithy (their spelling).

A bit more from John's death certificate in Victoria.

"John died 3rd May 1855, Ballarat, aged 31, of shock from falling into a waterhole. 7 years in Victoria. Married in Redruth Cornwall at age 22 to Jane Matthews." Mother's name not recorded.

I'll resume this tomorrow.

The only death I can find for Ann Nancarrow is 1839 in Redruth aged 37 residence Tolgus.

The age 37 gives a birth year of 1802 which fits with the baptism of Ann daughter of Thomas and Jennifer.

Thanks Emeltee.

Can't connect John b. abt 1825 and who died in Australia to Edward and Ann MORE and can't connect that Edward to John & Elizabeth WEBBER.

This is a real problem

John c. 25 Dec 1824 Redruth, Cornwall
Died 1 Oct 1826
Edward NANCARROW & Anne
Batch: C053412

No other record on FS for a John son of Edward and Anne yet there is one in the 1841 census aged 15. They would not have named another son John until after 1 Oct 1826 yet details from death certificate and age in census point to one being born before 1 Oct 1826.

Dave.

No age.

John NANCARROW
Steerage passenger
RAJAH 1847 from London via Plymouth 28 May 1847

I can't find the date of the 1847 marriage. Death certificate has John as 22 at time of his marriage.
