There are a great deal of Corks in that area and surrounding areas of Devon. I am a Cork and I know that I have family members in the Honiton area. My grandfather was Cecil Cork born in Westleigh. I believe a great-uncle of mine did the family tree once. I will try to find out what happened to it and let you know.

I am not sure if they are related, but my late grandmother was a cork, Elsie Cork, she had a few siblings, including Ivy Cork. Her siblings and decendants from that do live in cheshire, not far from Crewe if that helps. If you do find any links then il check this out incase you got anywhere. My mum has a cousin in carlisle, not sure if he is a cork though?

William Loveday b abt 1786 was my 3rd Great Grandfather. On the 1851 census he is living at Greenwich and puts his place of birth as Tiverton Devon. The LDS site shows a William Cork alias Loveday born at Uffculme (about 10k from Tiverton)in 1787
Is anybody able to shed more light on this?

I don't know enough about William to be able to say at this stage. There did seem to be quite a few Cork families in Kent though - have you tried looking at the messages on the Cork Forum at www.genforum.genealogy.com/cork ?

Corks in England

girouxtr — 2007-09-26 03:03:03Z

I am researching my g g g grandmother Mary Ann Cork b. about 1825 in Kent England. Her father was Stephen Cork. I found a Stephen Cork b. Mar. 2, 1802 in Cheshire England that I think may be her father but I have not been able to confirm that yet. This Stephen that I believe to be her father is the son of John and Elizabeth Cork.

My Mary Ann married Charles Walter and had eleven children.
Any information that anyone can share woul be greatly appreciated.

2005-01-20 19:44:35Z

I'm a descendant of the Corks and have been researching this family for some time. I have the information as to when John Cork left Antrim, Ireland for America. Why is it that there is no info on him prior to leaving Ireland. I can't even find any Corks in Ireland. I can find nothing on his wife. Anyone know why there is no info on him from Ireland, or how to attain it? Thanks very much!

HENRY CORK b.abt. 1838 -- where?

mparker138 — 2005-06-15 14:42:34Z

I am trying to find where HENRY CORK was born and have had little luck. From the census' (1861 to 1901) different places were named including: Croydon, Epsom and Norwood. I have been unable to find a HENRY CORK (born around these areas) in the birth indexes for a couple of years bracketing when he was born (abt. 1838). I have tried to find his father WILLIAM HENRY CORK in the census' hoping this would help, but have been unable to locate him. Any advice on what to try next would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

CharlotteeZ — 2006-05-06 18:59:17Z

Those names donot sound familier to me. As far as I know all my corks were from WV.They might be related somewhere down the line though. Do you have any other information as to where their families started out or who their families were.?

Re: Cork family

CharlotteeZ — 2006-05-06 18:59:17Z

Doloris,Did you ever get into the Davisison Run (Boring) Cem.?

Re: Cork family

CharlotteeZ — 2006-05-06 18:59:17Z

Dee,
if I am not mistaken,Ronnie Cork died. I think That information is correct. But he lived on Davidison Run. About 5 years ago we stopped and visited with him and his wife who used to be a good friend of my mothers as well as a cousin to her.
I do have pictures od the cemetery and would be glad to copy them and mail them to you if you send me your mailing address. Send m it on my e-mail at ceecee@ctol.net.
I have not been to the Mt. Claire cem. Where is it located/ I will try and get there in July when we go to the Cork reunion.
It would be nice if you and your family could come to the reunion. It is held in July every year at the Doddridge County Park. Take the Snowbird exit off rt. 50. to get there. When I get your address, I will give it to the ones who send out the reminders so you will get one.

Thanks for your help.

LynKirkland — 2005-10-10 20:33:46Z

Dear Ray, Just come across your entry. I have been researhing Cork Family from Norfolk for some time now and it sounds very much like your request.
My husband is related to James , one of the other children of Joseph Cork and Ann Panton ( you have Fenton) I am not sure if it is Fenton or Panton, but I think it may be Panton as some of James children has Panton as their second name.
I have a fair bit of information of Robert Cork and William Cork as well as James Cork- all three of which came to NSW.
Willing to share what I have and hope we can be of help to each other in our search.
Looking forward to hearing from you

Re: Cork family

LynKirkland — 2005-10-10 20:33:46Z

Hi Linda,

My Corks came to Australia about 1840s from Norwich, Norfolk, England. So not sure if connected as I am trying to find out more about the Cork family in England. Have a fair bit on the 3 Cork brothers that came to Australia. The first one to come was a convict.
The three brothers were James, William and Robert.
Let me know if you have gone back any further than 1900s
Best wishes from Lyn in Australia
