Another Robert Quick!

And who in the devil was this:-

From the West Briton - 20th January 1837

Robert QUICK m. Elizabeth QUICK

At St. Ives on Sun last; groom "about to proceed to the Brazils"

Surely this brings us back to the two Roberts and their two wives Elizabeth Trenerry and Elizabeth Stevens.

And if that was the case then this would be the son of Robert and Elizabeth Stevens baptised 20 Dec 1807.

But then again the marriage on the 15th January 1837 at St Ives is recorded elsewhere as between James Quick and Elizabeth Quick and they are both still part of the Trenerry/Stevens clan.

If the West Briton is correct then perhaps you are right although we would then need to identify Elizabeth QUICK.

Of the STEVENS and TRENERRY family we know that Robert son of Elizabeth TRENERRY married Mary Jane STEVENS at St Ives 28th November 1841.

He was NOT recorded as a widower but ....

However, we still have no further information for the son of Elizabeth STEVENS so he may well be a possibility.

And if the West Briton is incorrect abd the groom should be JAMES?

James and Elizabeth had a son baptised 19h November 1837 which would indicate a 'very quick trip' to the Brazils or a delayed baptism.

But the next two children to this family were baptised together 29th July 1849..........

Interesting.

I have just had another look at this and re-checked the St Ives marriages.

The only QUICK marriage at St Ives for January 1837 was that of James and Elizabeth.

I am sure the West Briton was published on Friday so the reference seems clearly to be that of the marriage between James and Elizabeth given the previous Sanday was the 15th.

Perhaps it was Robert (either father or brother) who informed the newspaper of the event.

In any case - I think I am prepared to note this merely as an anomaly.
