Hello Diann,

Sharon posted the request on my behalf originally.....Many thanks for the census information 1871.

They are not my family.

On the Marriage certificate for my Richard Eddy b1871 death 1902/before March 1903, of Trewellard, he states his fathers name to be Richard Eddy, a Miner.

The only family with a son called Richard Eddy b1871 and a father called Richard Eddy a Miner, points to Richard Eddy and Sarah Trembath family. They have a son of the same age, occupation (gold Miner) and death year of 1902 , but I have his Will and there isn't any mention of a wife or children at all.

I believe in those years you had to proovide for your family, the Parish would not be willing to look after them if you had money to leave at your death, which he did.

My Great grand-dad is such a mystery.
