	This has been driving me crazy. I keep putting it on the back burner.....popping it out again and getting more and more.frustrated. Perhaps someone can find something that i can't. Here goes........ Richard Hancock born 1792 St Germans, Conwall Grace Hicks born 1788 Menheniot, Cornwall Their marriage....... Grace Hicks in the England, Select Marriages, 1538–1973 Name: Grace Hicks Gender: Female Marriage Date: 13 Apr 1814 Marriage Place: Menheniot, Cornwall, England Spouse: Richard Hancock A daughter born 1814 Jane Hancock in the England, Select Births and Christenings, 1538-1975 Day Month 12-Aug Year 1814 Parish Or Reg District Menheniot Forename Jane Surname HANCOCK Sex FEmale Father Forename Richard Mother Forename Grace Residence Trethawl Father Rank Profession Farmer Jane married Reynold Stroud in 1837 Jane Hancock in the England, Select Plymouth and West Devon, Parish Registers, 1538-1912 Name: Jane Hancock Marriage Date: 1837 Marriage Place: Devon Spouse: Reynold Stroud Grace is with Jane on the 1851 census....... 1851 England, Wales & Scotland Census Transcription Penquit Cottage, Modbury, Kingsbridge, Devon, England Reynold Stroud Head Married Male 40 1811 General Labourer Cornwall Jane Stroud Wife Married Female 36 1815 Menheniot Cornwall, Mary J Stroud Daughter - Female 10 1841 - Dartington, Devon, Peter Stroud Son - Male 8 1843 - Dartington, Devon, John Stroud Son - Male 6 1845 - Dartington, Devon, Jessie Stroud Daughter - Female 4 1847 - Devon, Grace Hancock Mother-In-Law Widow Female 62 1789 Nurse Menheniot Cornwall (I know all about Jane) Grace on the 1861 census..... 1861 England, Wales & Scotland Census Transcription Parsonage, Landulph, St Germans, Cornwall, England Edwin W Jones Visitor Unmarried Male 33 1828 ... Devonport, Devon, England Grace Hancock Servant Married Female 72 1789 House Keeper Menheniot, Cornwall, England Charlotte Smallacombe Servant Unmarried Female 39 1822 House Maid Landulph, Cornwall, England Grace died in 1867. Here is the frustrating part... Richard and Grace on the 1841 census........ 1841 England, Wales & Scotland Census Transcription Netton Farm, Revelstoke, Plympton St Mary, Devon, England Richard Hancock Male 45 1796 - Farmer Grace Hancock Female 50 1791 - George Hancock Male 20 1821 - Richard Hancock Male 15 1826 - Ann Hancock Female 15 1826 - William Hancock Male 15 1826 - Isaac Hancock Male 30 1811 - Sarah Parmer Female 20 1821 Devon, England Robert Greenslade Male 10 1831 Devon, England John Rendle Male 10 1831 Devon, England (All born out of County) Not only have the ages been rounded, i have no idea of when and where the children were born. I believe that Isaac Hancock is Richard's brother who i couldn't find on the 1841 census......he was born in 1803. There are several deaths in Devon between 1841---1851 for a Richard Hancock. There are no baptism's records that i can find for George, Richard, Ann or William. I have searched and searched to find them on any other census records......but failed miserably! Prickles :-(

	None of the Richard Hancock deaths 1841-51 in Devon or Cornwall are anywhere near the right age, assuming 1826 birth to be more or less correct.
