Good morning
I have an observation following the suggestion and subsequent discussion that John Michell Quick deserted his wife and then supposedly remarried some years later to Mary Jane Barnes Veal.
Stephen Ustick Quick was baptised at Morvah in October 1820. In March 1849 he married Mary Elizabeth Veal, daughter of William at St Ives. In the 1851 census Stephen and Mary were at Fore Street, St Ives, with a son.
Stephen sailed for Victoria in 1853 aboard the ship "Gem".
In the 1861 census Mary was at her father's house with her son John.
In 1869 Mary Elizabeth Quick married Benjamin Rice Berriman in Wales and appears in Wales in subsequent census.
Assuming that the above is correct the following extract from the NZ BDM online index is interesting:- Death in 1892 - Stephen Euston Quick, aged 72 years.

Although I have not updated my database to reflect this I have arrived at the same conclusion - Stephen Euston Quick and Stephen Ustick Quick are one and the same man.
Something else you may not know is that his son of the same name married Ellen Lobb somewhere in the Redruth area in 1881. A son, Stephen Frederick Quick, was born at Phillack 22nd September 1882 and baptized at the Wesleyan Methodist Chapel at Angarrack, Phillack 19th February 1883.
Stephen Ustick Quick (the younger) died at 11 Victoria Walk, Woodstock, Cape Town, Cape Province, South Africa 19th June 1933. The details show that he was age 84, a widower, that he was born in England and that he was a retired pensioner. Cause of death was a 'cerebral haemorrhage due to arterio sclerosis'. (Source - South Africa, Cape Province, Civil Deaths, 1895-1972 which I think was on FamilySearch)
I don't know when or where Ellen died but would presume that it may also have been in South AFrica.
Young John Quick (1852) was a sailor but I have no more knowledge of him after the Census records you have quoted.

CT, You are probably already aware of the following, but just in case...
A Thomas Ustic Quick died in Cape Province, South Africa in 1898. (presumably a brother?)
There is an Ellen Jane Couche (nee Lobb) who dies in Cape Province in 1950. Not sure if if is the Ellen (nee Lobb) Quick, since she she marries William James Thomas Couch in 1933 as Ellen Jane Lobb.

Actually a nephew.  This was the son of Stephen's brother Thomas Ustick Quick and he was born at Creswick, Victoria, Australia in 1875. Details again taken from the South Africa, Cape Province, Civil Deaths, 1895-1972 collection tell us that Thomas Ustick Quick died at the Kimberley Hostpital, Kimberley, Northern Cape, South Africa of tubercular phthisis and asthma at the age of 22. Thomas Ustick Quick senior married Mary Young in Victoria, Australia in 1874 and had two other known children - Mary Martin Quick born 1879 Kingston, Victoria died in 1880 and John Quick born 1881 and died 1882 at Broomfield, Victoria. If this had been Ellen Lobb, wife of Stephen Ustick Quick, then she would have been about 101 years of age in 1950. However if you read the information I supplied on the death of Stephen Ustick Quick again you will note that he was described as a 'widower' at the time of his death in 1933. CT |
