We have similar tree and would like to make a connection with you.
Just got back from Wisconsin = but still searching for more details on
Richard Temby born 1831 Conwall, England
and Nicholas Temby and his wife Anne Trezona.
It looks like your message was left a while back - but still hope
you are interested in more about the Tenby/Temby Family.
Have more questions about the Polkinghorns, also.

I believe I have written to you before - but, we are still searching for the Tembys and the Polkinghorns.
We will be headed to Wisconsin next month for the Cornish Festival and we hope to do some more searching and enjoying the pasties.
Our line goes back from my husband's grandmother, Ilia Polkinghorn, her mother Elizabeth Temby, her Father Richard Temby, his father Nicholas Temby and then maybe William Temby.
Can we exchange info???
Thanks.

Hi again Martha,

I've recently discovered http://seekingmichigan.org The site includes images of Michigan death certificates for 1897-1920. I just viewed Elizabeth VIVIAN's death certificate and it gives the parents' names as you mentioned in a previous post (Edward TIMBY and Elizabeth KEMP)

Enjoy,
Karen

Hello. I just happened to see this post while searching for information about my great-grandfather, Alfred Temby. Myrtle was my grandmother on my mother's side and to the best of my knowledge lived for a time in Great Falls, then Butte, Montana. I knew her mother, my great-grandmother, Amelia only briefly, as I was a small boy when she died. Myrtle married Maurice Cowell who's family came from Libby, Montana, but the apparently divorced when my mother was very small, in the early 30s. Myrtle died in early 1957. Please let me know if I can provide any additional information.

I am Fred C. Temby III, my grandfather and father were both named Fred. My grandfather died in Bloomingdate NJ, in 1960. He had two sons, Fred Jr. and Ewert, Ewert died young without any children about 1940. Fred's wife Grace was a couple years older than he was and died about 1950. He did not remarry. His son Fred died about age 72 in 1973. Both are buried in Butler New Jersey, but in different cemeteries.
I can provide more information if you are interested.

Hi Karen,

Thanks so much for this information! I haven't tried to research this line for a while, so I'm excited to have a new route to try!

Take care and good luck in your own research. :-)

Hi Martha,

Interesting that you have an interest in these names in Camborne. Are you familiar with the wonderful online site http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~camborneopc that has many transcribed church records for the parish?

We must be distantly related as I have a 5greatgrandmother, Jenefer VIVIAN, who married Thomas YEATS in Camborne in 1812 as well as a 6greatgrandmother, Mary TEMBY, who married Christopher PASCO in Camborne in 1773.

Also, many of the Cornish censuses are transcribed at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~kayhin/cocp.html and you'll find lots of VIVIANs and TEMBYs in the Camborne vicinity.

Good luck,
Karen in Pennsylvania

Re: Alfred Temby

Two of Alfred's brothers are buried in the Pensilva cemetery and there is a photo of that headstone found at the Lynher Parishes site at http://www.lynherparishes.co.uk

This website also has census transcriptions for St Ive which include Alfred and his family.

Re: Nicholas TEMBY, Camborne, Cornwall

karenkrich — 2008-02-24 18:10:40Z

Dear Susan,

I've been looking at a microfilm of Treslothan, Cornwall church records and your Nicholas TEMBY family is found frequently.

With the very great number of descendants of Nicholas and Ann, probably one and hopefully many of them had improved fortunes over those of a Cornish miner and perhaps paid for the headstone? Have you visited the cemetery? Do you live in Cornwall?

One of my 6greatgrandmothers was Mary TEMBY who married Christopher PASCO in 1773 in Camborne. With the common first name, I'm not really sure who her father was, but perhaps a distant relative of yours also.

Best wishes,
Karen in Pennsylvania, USA

Re: Elizabeth TEMBY EVA, 1826-1904, Treslothan, Camborne, Cornwall

colojoe — 2008-02-06 02:35:01Z

GREAT to have a response!

Stennack is so tiny that common surnames mean we must be connected.

I will follow up on the OPC site you list.

I have several documents you might be interested in:
- image of the 1841 census showing Elizabeth in the household of William (copper miner in Stennack) and Charity TEMBY, along with Grace TEMBY, age 70, probably William's mother.
- hard copies of the marriage record for Elizabeth TEMBY and Thomas EVA on 29 Jan 1844, and birth record of their daughter Jane EVA (b 4 Feb 1844 - draw your own conclusions).
- image of the 1851 census of the William TEMBY household (now farmer in Troon) that now includes his mother-in-law, Mary DENNIS
- image of 1861 census with Charity as a widow, farmer in Troon.
- image of 1861 census for Thomas (copper miner in Troon) and Elizabeth EVA and seven children, including Charity (b abt 1855), my great-grandmother, and her sister Mary who married brothers and migrated to Montana in the late 1870s.

Email me directly at genealogyjoe@gmail.com and I will send you copies of what I have.

Re: Elizabeth TEMBY EVA, 1826-1904, Treslothan, Camborne, Cornwall

karenlk — 2008-02-05 22:26:57Z

My YEATS family lived in Stennack, Camborne at one time before emigrating to Pennsylvania in the late 1860's and I believe a 6greatgrandmother of mine is a Mary TEMBY who married a Christopher PASCOE in Camborne in 1773.

There is a great online parish clerk (OPC) site for the parish maintained by Sally. It includes an index for the year you're interested in and in fact lists the marriage of Elizabeth TEMBY and Thomas EVA as taking place 28 Jan 1844 at the church in Camborne.

Sally will provide additional details by email that aren't included in the index and hopefully she will be able to tell you the name of Elizabeth's father from the marriage record.

Go to http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~camborneopc

I have a microfilm of Treslothan Church records on order from the LDS library in Salt Lake City. This church opened in 1845 and apparently Stennack as you mentioned ended up in Treslothan parish. I plan to write down TEMBYs from these records and perhaps there will be a burial that might interest you. So please let me know if you find out the name of Elizabeth TEMBY's father.

I will also try to remember to look for baptisms of children of Thomas and Elizabeth EVA when I get that microfilm.

Best wishes from a maybe very distant cousin,
Karen in Pennsylvania

Elizabeth TEMBY EVA, 1826-1904, Treslothan, Camborne, Cornwall

colojoe — 2007-12-23 23:14:46Z

Seeking information on any relatives of my GGGM Elizabeth TEMBY (1826-1904), who married Thomas EVA in Q1 1844, probably in Camborne, Cornwall.

Family lore says she was born on 23 June 1826, probably in Camborne. 1841 census has a person of the right name and age living with parents William and Charity TEMBY in Stennack, Treslothan, Camborne, The fact that the Elizabeth I seek named one of her daughters Charity (my GGM), and that this daughter's birthplace is also Stennack (per copy of birth registraton from GRO), strongly suggests that this is the right Elizabeth. Later the EVA family lived in Troon and several of the children migrated to western Montana in the 1870s.

Elizabeth TEMBY b. 2/7/1836, d. 11/22/1909

genfamily2003 — 2006-11-24 02:29:18Z

I am looking for the parents and any possible siblings of Elizabeth TEMBY. She was born 2/7/1836 in Cornwall and married William Henry VIVIAN circa June 1854 in Cornwall. She arrived in New York on 8/18/1884 with several of their children: Kate, Bessie, Polly, Joseph and Arthur Johnson. She died on 11/22/1909 and is buried in Forest Hill Cemetery, Houghton, MI.

Thanks in advance for any information offered!

genfamily2003 — 2006-11-24 02:29:18Z

I have received the marriage certificate information for Elizabeth Temby and William Henry Vivian. Elizabeth's father was Edward Temby. On the LDS site, it lists Edward's wife as being Elizabeth Kemp, but that is the only indication that I have seen thus far of who Edward's wife may have been.

Does anyone recognize these folks?

Thanks!

I am helping someone find more information on their Family line. I have a Certified Copy of an Entry of Birth from the Registration District of Liskeard sub-district of Callington in the County of Cornwall. Born the 26th of June 1899 at Pensilva, St. Ive was a girl Myrtle Maria Temby, daughter of Alfred Temby and Amelia Jane Temby formerly Jeffery. The certificate shows fathers occupation as a Tin Miner. Any help on additional names or lines connected to this would be helpful and appreciated.

Re: Frederick Charles Temby

2004-02-29 08:07:59Z

saw your post on Frederick C Temby. I have a Fred C Temby married to Grace Temby in plot 67 of the Old Butler Cemetery. The dates match for Grace, but the year of death for Frederick is listed as 1930 instead of 1960. This cemetery is in Butler, NJ - about a mile from Bloomingdale NJ (Passaic County). There are two other Temby's buried in the same plot - Richard(1866-1931) and Ewart(1909-1939).

I'm looking for some information on the ancestors of these 4 individuals as well as a link between them and the Hoskings family. MH
