Thanks again Potty - I will have a look, they look good though. regards Jane Potty - had a look, the only thing that is worrying me is that Mary Ann was married in 1884 - her father was a Coal Miner and not noted as deceased, no I know from experience the certs aren't 100% accurate but in the 1871 cenus he was a farm labourer in Cornwall, so I not too sure.

Same family in 1871 - if you look closely at the image, it looks as if a second name for some of the children has been written over the Do for ditto: Mary Ann Laimlsta Age: 3 Estimated birth year: abt 1868 Relation: Daughter Father's name: James Mother's name: Mary Gender: Female Where born: St Ive, Cornwall, England Civil parish: St Ive Ecclesiastical parish: St Ive Town: Cross County/Island: Cornwall Country: England Street address: Occupation: Condition as to marriage: Disability: View image Registration district: Liskeard Sub-registration district: Callington ED, institution, or vessel: 7 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 82 Household Members: Name Age Eliza A Laimlsta 3 Elizabeth Laimlsta 6 Mary Ann Laimlsta 3 William D Laimlsta 1 James Lawrence 49 James Lawrence 8 Mary Lawrence 38 John F Tendall 14 Richard H Tendall 17
