There is a William RAWLING married at Lelant 27th December 1733.
Unfortunately the entry simply reads "William Rawling was married"
No mention of the bride's name.
But looking at the Lelant Baptisms we have children to William and Mary from that date.
And then from the early 1740's we have a William and Margery (sometimes Margaret) Rawling baptising children.
Now this second one might be important
and I am now quoting from Phillimore:-
William RAWLING, of Madron, & Margery BRYANT, of Lelant were married at St Gluvias 6th February 1743
Okay - There is your 'niece' Margery Rawling! ;D
That would then indicate that she was quite possibly a sister to James BRYANT.
She could not be a daughter given this marriage was only 13 years after James was married - unless he had been previously married, of course.
There are two possibilities at Lelant for Margery and I would suggest the earlier one died given the father in both cases is Thomas.
Margery d/o Thomas BRYAND bp. 20th April 1716
Margery d/o Thomas BRYANT bp. 3rd October 1719
The next question, which may be difficult to answer, is why did William Rawling and Margery Bryant get married at St Gluvias??
That's about it for the moment so hope it helps.
