Hi
James Ninnes was born about 1794 in St. Ives, Cornwall England.
He married Mary Green from Bristol, Somerset on 10 Feb 1817 in Walcott, Somerset.
They had 2 sons that I know about, James Walker Ninnes b 1818 and William Ninnes b 1819 both in Liverpool, Lancashire, England. In 1840 both sons are married and in Somerset.
Later they moved to Sussex. He was a Jeweller as were both his sons.
Trying to find out which James Ninnes 1794 he is as there are 2 baptised in 1794 in St ivesjavascript:add("%20???")
Son of james and Jane or Son of William and Mary.
Thanks
Eliz

Elizabeth - you are forgetting James son of Nicholas and Ann who was baptised at St Ives 7th April 1793. Your birthdate for James is no doubt approximated from Census and/or death or burial records which are notoriously inaccurate so it will not be easy to determine which of a possible three James this might be. One of them was buried at St Ives 26th January 1794 as an infant. He would be either the son of James and Jane (more likely) or the son of Nicholas and Ann. As James and Mary named a son William I would be inclined towards the son of William and Mary but at this point that is not enough evidence to be certain.  CT |

Thanks CT- I will continue to dig and see if anything else turns up that might help.

Elizabeth - I might possibly be onto something that might help although it might take a bit of effort to sort things out still. It looks like 'the other' James Ninnes might have married Martha Harvey at St Ives in 1824 so I will chase up and see what I can find on that family. But it also looks like 'your' James might have given up the Jewellery business to take up the licence of a Beerhouse in Putney! The 1861 Census has a James Ninnes age 66, born St Ives, living at Putney with wife ELEANOR. His occupation is 'Beerhouse Keeper' and he has three children aged 8, 7 and 5 who were all born at Brighton. FreeBMD shows the marriage of a James Ninnes to Eleanor Nash in the Steyning R.D. in 1852. CT |

CT no need to duplicate the work done in the previous thread Ninnes of St Ives - we concluded that James who went to Bath had to be the son of Jane and Jane because she remarried John Stephens and James' sister Jane and her half sister Ann Stephens follows James to Sussex!
(Sue did most of the work but I helped a bit )

Thanks Londoner - I knew I had done some work on this lot recently but could not remember the details or just where it was!  I am going to have to revisit that thread and have another look through the discussion because I have found something now that may cause some rethinking to be done! That must now be a project for a little later after I have had a good rest from the problem. CT |

Cornish Terrier. Thanks for the information about the beerhouse keeper. I had seen it before but ignored it. On reflection there might be something in it because Mary Ninnes (nee Green) died in Brighton in 1852. This allows enough time for James to have a child 8 years old in 1861 (Census year) and as they were born in Brighton they might be unknown relatives of mine. I live in Australia and find it difficult tracking information so any help is most welcome.

If you have a read through the entire thread “Ninnes of St Ives”, which you started on 7 May, you will see that Londoner & I did a bit of ferreting that weekend on your family in the 19th century.
Regarding your James Ninnes born c 1794 who married Mary Green, this included identifying the fact that he married a 2nd time, to Eleanor Nash just inland from Brighton, a few months after Mary died - & thus your William Ninnes had 3 half-siblings, the boys becoming a headmaster and a gardener respectively.

To all involved in this discussion - I think it best if we continue ALL discussion on this in the original 'Ninnes of St Ives' thread. Crikey - I got confused!  and Londoner had to remind me we had already talked about some of this! ;D Although 'a conclusion' was reached regarding the identity of James Ninnes I have to say that I am still not 'comfortable' so I plan to begin a review of the Ninnes family. They only way to have any certainty about James is to find out what happened to each of them!  So PLEASE keep all conversation in the main thread. CT |
