I have an interest in descendants of the family of Samuel Dobb
b 1820 Porthlevin (mason and innkeeper) and his wife Jane (nee Rowe) born 1819 Porthlevin. They were married on 5 May 1842 in Sithney Parish. Their children were Mary Jane(b 1843), Edith
(b 1845), Elizabeth Ellen (b 1847), Laura (b 1848) Frederick Adolphus (b 1850), Helena (b 1856). Frederick Adolphus immigrated to NZ and married Janet Wilkliams in 1881 at Thames, NZ.
Since Frederick was the only male, the Dobb name may not appear in the descendants of any of his sisters. Frederick also changed his name to Dobbs on arrival in NZ. I am happy to share information about this information.
