SilverVixen on 2012-12-05 06:01:01Baptism for Adelaide Trembath NANKERVIS 17 July 1856 Pendeen, Cornwall, father James NANKERVIS mother Sarah
Record source Cornwall Baptisms
data provider, Cornwall Family History Society
tonkin on 2012-12-06 00:38:21Interesting.
Here are two more children baptised tp James and Sarah NANKERVIS.
Alice NANKERVIS.
Baptised 17 July 1856, Pendeen, Cornwall.
Obedaih Trembath NANKERVIS.
Baptised 17 July 1856, Pendeen, Cornwall.
It's possible Alice and Obedaih were twins.
I'm wondering if the Adelaide Trembath NANKERVIS mentioned by the Cornwall Family History Society is one of the above.
Thanks for the good oil SilverVixen. You have been busy.
Cheers.
SilverVixen on 2012-12-06 07:48:21As far as I can see Alice and Adelaide are listed separately for the baptism. It is possible there were twins but also that they just saved all the children up and had one christening for all of them, the only way to tell is to get birth dates :
Birth record for Adelaide Trembath : Penzance, Cornwall, 1856 Q2 5C 376
The only info I can find on Obediah is his baptism which you already have, my information just adds his father is a miner and their residence is Boscaswell
I do have a record for a birth
