Cornish Terrier: I'm sorry! I'm dyslexic, and sometimes I transpose numbers. I usually catch it, but this time I didn't. Sorry for the confusion. He was born in 1834. I got most of the info from his bio which is online and the rest I confirmed through the U.S. census. I did find one Arthur in Cornwall in the 1841 census who fit the dates (just what town now ecapes me) and he had a lot of siblings, so if he is the one there should be a lot of available information to connect with him. I agree that this portion of the thread (the whole Berryman discussion) should go elsewhere.

Don't fret Calswimmer - I, too, have made similar mistakes but have sometimes taken longer to find and correct them. Just looked at the 1841 Census and the nearest I can find is an Arthur Berryman born abt. 1833 and the family is at St Agnes. Without looking at the actual image - he appears to be son of Arthur and Mary Berryman and does have numerous siblings. CAN YOU direct me to the online bio for this fellow so that I might peruse it please. Decided to have a quick look at the 1841 Census Image for this family. Why is it that any time I decide to look at an image from the 1841 Census the people I am looking for are on the right hand page. Here is the family from 1841 at St Agnes Arthur Berryman, 44, miner Mary do., 41 Elizabeth do., 21 William do., 18, miner John do., 14, miner James do., 10 Arthur do., 8 Josiah do., 5 Frederick do., 3 Charles do., 6 mths The reason I decided to list this family is due to the two members I have highlighted. From the records I have John and Josiah both came to Australia. John married Mary Ann Chapman in Victoria in 1856 and died at Granya, Victoria (not a long way from where I live) in 1915 aged 88.) Josiah died at Granya in 1913 at the age of 76. The Victorian Death Index records the parents as Arthur BERRYMAN and Mary (nee TONKIN). Need to pursue this later on - but see what you can make of it and I look forward to your thoughts.

Here is the link for Arthur in California: www.mariposaresearch.net/santaclararesearch/SCBIOS/aberryman.htmlIf it does not work for you just use a search engine for "Arthur Berryman" and "Santa Clara." Thanks for the additional info. I'll take a look. By the way, I think there was another Arthur in Yates county, NY about the same time.

Thanks Calswimmer and I will 'try' to take a look at this after work tonight. Much to do and running behind but I will try to catch up on it all.

~slogs thru a ton of Berryman stuf....~ I phoned Sunset memorial Park in Coos Bay yesterday and talked to a very nice and helpful man named Ross, who confirmed that Mathew Trewella (sic) is indeed buried there. However, they did not have Joseph or Margaret. he suggested that they might be buried at Marshfield Cemetery, and offered to check for me. He phoned me back today, and said he found them both there. Margaret's death date he confirmed as 31 Aug 1907. Joseph died 23 Apr. 1923, age 76, birthplace England. The next step now is for me to recontact the RAOGK person, and see if she can locate an obit for Joseph. The last step will be to try and get a death certificate.

Dear Cousin - some of the Berryman stuff is worth slogging through but we need to probably think about redirecting it sometime soon. HOWEVER - thank you very much for this latest information and please, once again, pass on my thanks to 'Ross' and anyone else who has been kind enough to help you out with this query for me. One more scan of the Board then it is off to 'snooze-land' for this little black duck. ;D

More from our RAOGK lady in Coos Co:
Funeral Tomorrow
The funeral of the late Joseph Trewella, who died in San Francisco and whose body was brought to this city, will be held from the Wilson chapel at 2 o'clock tomorrow. The services were held in San Francisco and there will be no funeral service here excepting a committal ritual by the Odd Fellows at the grave. The burial will be in the Odd Fellows cemetery, where the wife of Mr. Trewella is buried.
Marshfield Sun, Marshfield, Coos County, OR. Apr 24, 1923
So Joseph died in California... question is, what was he doing there?
I suspect the date of 23 April then was not his exact death date, as I doubt they could get him from San Fran up to Oregon that fast...

A bit more. A lovley young lady from Marshfield High School who is involved with the Marshfield Cemetery sent me the following info:
The records were listed under "Trevela" - the Logbboks are hard to read sometimes; we thought the Trev might be of German descent and the recorder heard a "v" sound instead of "w." Margaret is buried in Block 84, Plot 1, b. in Pennsylvania, age 47, died from an "operation," & was buried on Aug 31, 1907. Joseph is buried in Block 84, Plot 2, age 76, buried on April 25, 1923. There is currently no headstones to mark the graves. It is interesting to note that they are buried near other families whose men were miners - the Kenyons from England and the Brynns from Scotland..

I am not really familiar with the various Joseph Trewellas, and don't mean to intrude on this thread, but in case it helps, there is the following Joseph, age 3, born in England, found in the 1870 household of Matthew & Eliza J Trewella in Vershire, Orange Co, Vermont: 1870>>Vermont>>Orange Co>>Vershire (which for some reason, Ancestry has labeled as "Turnbridge," though I know not why!) pg 472B (stamped); enumerated 28 June 1870; Ancestry img 52 of 54 line 15 #147/147 TREWELLA, Matthew; 29, Wks in copper mine; b England; " , Eliza J., 26, keeps house; b Engl; " , Mathew H?, 8; b Engl; " , William J., 6; b Engl; " , Cassy? (female), 5; b Engl; " , Joseph, 3, b Engl; " , Mary, 1, b Vermont; " , John, 36, Wks in copper mine; b Engl; There are quite a few other mine worker families, "born in England" enumerated on this page which might help with "placing" this family - in the event that some came from the same parishes. There is some interesting information online about Vershire, VT, and the Vermont Copper Mining Company (and a Cornish miner by name of Thomas Pollard) found here: www.usgennet.org/usa/vt/county/orange/vershire/

My friend - this is no 'intrusion'. This Board is about people helping each other with their research so any particular section is open for comments from others such as yourself. Basically - this is not a 'private party'. ;D Matthew (29) and John (36) were brothers and sons of Matthew Trewhella and Sally (nee WILLIAMS). Eliza J was Matthew's first wife (nee SPARNON) who died in Pennsylvania in 1888 after which Matthew married Amelia ( ). Matthew and Eliza had 11 children that I know of and the one you show as 'Cassy' was actually 'Caroline Anna' who was known as 'Carrie'. Anything more you have to offer will be welcomed here and you will receive answers to any questions as soon as it is possible. Ian

A small update for this thread and it comes with an ulterior motive! I have found out more information about Joseph TREWELLA and some others that have been part of this discussion. Work will be commencing in the next few days to collate all the information and make the necessary adjustments/updates to my database after which I will post the results here. The ulterior motive - simply to get this thread back up near the top of the list so I can find it a little easier! PS - Joseph died 15th April 1923 in California.

As a bribe for future favors, I've discovered a piece of info I've not yet seen on this thread. (Forgive me if it was mentioned elsewhere that I haven't got to read -- you folks sure are chatty about this clan!) The maiden name of Matthew TREWELLA's wife was Amelia (REICHARD). Her folks were farmers from Pennsylvania. I have clues to further info, and will attempt to suss out what I can ... but goodness, all those Josephs and Matthews of similar age are confusing ~JudyLynn Disclaimer: No, I have no TREWHELLAs in my tree (yet!), nor have I any connection to the REICHARDs; I simply have access to some Schuylkill County data.

You were right! - you did have something of interest for us and in particular ME! ;D And all that chat about the clan has produced some results since the thread began including that little piece of information you supplied. I have also found a little more in the last week but still looking fore more. And if you think Joseph and Matthew have been a problem then you have only seen the tip of the iceberg. I also have a problem in Connecticut with Trewhella men named William and then there is New York City in general to deal with. Oh - there is no need to 'bribe' me I'm always happy to help where I can. Off for some more research now and armed with fresh information! CT

I noticed in your other thread that you have JOHNS in Ludgvan which means there is a 'chance' you might yet end up with some connection to the TREWHELLA family!
