Hi,

Yeah that all fits with the family knowledge. However, I can't find a birth in 1979 for Devonport - or anywhere else!

Hi,

I am having some trouble searching for my great great grandmother, Mary Ann Cornish, nee Parminter. According to her death certificate, she was born in 1879. She married William Andrew Cornish in Stoke Dameral, Devonport, in 1898, and died in 1952 in Devonport. Together, they had 10 children, my great grandmother, Evelina was the youngest, born in 1911. My grandmother believes that Mary Ann was born in Devon, around the Newton Abbot area. From her marriage certificate I know her father's name was John Parminter, and the middle name Howard suggests that was potentially her mother's maiden name. I have found a marriage for a John Parminter to an Ann Howard in 1856, in Halstead, Essex, but at 24 years before the birth, either this is the wrong marriage, or Mary Ann lied about her age (William Andrew Cornish was 11 years older by the information I have so far, so this could be possible.). However, I cannot find a birth anywhere. I have considered the possibility that she may have been born abroad, but that doesn't fit with any of the family knowledge I have been able to dig up from my grandparents.

If any of these names, dates etc link in with any of your research, please let me know! I would love to be able to complete this branch of the family for my grandmother.
