I'm puzzled


IF Beatrice was born in 1867, she was only 15 when she married in 1882.


Her birthplace is shown as Pontsanorth in 1891, Pontsnooth in 1901, and Penrhyn in 1911.

The 1901 birthplace has been corrected to Portsmouth by someone, but it doesn't look like Portsmouth on the image to me


There is only 1 Beatrice M Martin born ca 1867/68 showing up on the 1871 and 1881 Censuses, and she is still under that name in 1891 .............. and she was born in Penrhyn



Looking at Sarah A Gribble, she is with her husband in the 1871 census living in the civil parish of St Gluvias, but the town is called Ponsanooth :-D

Civil Parish: St Gluvias
Ecclesiastical parish: St Gluvias
Town: Ponsanooth <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

AND

looking at the image, Sarah Gribble is living next door to a Martin family ...........


Name: Hannibal Martin
Age: 31
Estimated birth year: abt 1840
Relation: Head
Spouse's Name: Mary J Martin

Mary J Martin 28 b.ca 1843, Lanivet, Cornwall
Betarice M Martin 4 b.ca 1867, St Gluvias <<<<<<<<<<<<<

Beatrice is not with them in 1881 ............ could she have already moved to Wales??

Sarah A Gribble present on both the 1891 and 1901 censuses was born ca 1823, Falmouth, Cornwall.

In 1891, she is shown as a Boarder, and as Visitor in 1901


I wonder if there is a connection between Beatrice and Sarah??

Probably so. there's quite a lot of James Thomas's born in Wales same date so probably need his father's name from the marriage cert.

ah yes he did, so people may have called him emlyn when he was actually james

Rambling

Rambling Report 7 Sep 2015 23:01

I took the census from Ancestry.

This looks like Glanarwed's birth ( freebmd.org.uk) so his middle name is Emlyn... I wonder if father James had the middle name Emlyn too?

I would love to know what you subscribe to, would be great to get all this info, so do you think emlyn was born James?

No Ivor was alive in 1911 , sorry my copy and paste missed off that he was 14, possibly one born and died between census. Charlotte M the eldest probably married 1903

But that census is for a James, not Emlyn? So is that the right family? If you could tell us which of the children was your grandfather we can double check.

Frances

Frances Report 7 Sep 2015 22:08

yes I think that's right 1894, just couldn\t find a thing

Ok so from your tree you have this Emlyn Thomas born 1876

Births Jun 1876 (>99%)
THOMAS Emlyn Llandilofawr 11a 879

so marriage will be from 1894 onwards.
