William Glasson & Jane Goldsworthy

[Deleted]

Hello

I am looking for somebody who may have recorded the movements of William Glasson and Jane Goldsworthy after the 1841 census.

It is my opinion that this is the couple who are to be found at Church Town in Illogan in the 1841 census. He was a 30 year old miner and she was 24 years old. I am of course assuming that they were husband and wife and not brother and sister or the like.

I do however think that William and Jane were married in 1838 at Redruth and William is the son of Charles Glasson and Grace Clemma and Jane is the daughter of James Goldsworthy.

I cannot find burials, marriages etc for these two that would explain what happened to them after the 1841 census, therefore I am assuming that they emigrated.

If anybody has come across these two I would appreciate knowing about them please.

Lannanta - you are one up on me at the moment! - I can't even find them in 1841!

But I have checked Victoria and South Australia for possible children with no result.
I also checked all 1851 Census places available on Ancestry (Wales, Scotland, Isle of Man, Channel Islands) as well as 1850 and 1860 US Census.

If you haven't found them in New Zealand then we have South Africa, Canada or South America as the next most likely places with Canada probably being third on that list.

In the 1841 census you have to search in Ancestry using "Glafson".

- Yeah, I should have known!

Getting sick and tired of some of the atrocious transcribing efforts on Ancestry.

To make matters worse that is exactly how it is spelt too

Actually it's not!

It is not an 'f' but the old 'long s' which was used 'til quite late.
