Hi

I have a Margaret Mitchell BERRIMAN m John BRYANT 31 Jan 1850 at St Ives.

Her father was William BERRIMAN m Wilmot MITCHELL at Towednack around 1823

Any one any info on this BERRIMAN family and if possible what area of Towednack did they live in.

Thanks George

George, have you checked Nick Berryman's site fpr this family?
Also, if the earlier couple had their children at Towednack the PR should indicate the name of the hamlet they were in at the time.
Also check the 1841 census for the same. You may find data and/or links on Rick Parson's excellent West Penwith Resources website.

William BERRYMAN s/o James BERRIMAN and Christian (nee Sampson) was baptised at Towednack 26th February 1804.

He married Wilmot MICHELL (Parents as yet not ascertained) at Towednack 6th January 1823.

Seven children that I am aware of but there may possibly have been more that I have not yet found.

In 1851 William and Wilmot were at Halsetown with children Matthew, William, John, Wilmot and Mary.

The eldest child was James baptised at Towednack 9th March 1823.

Next known child was Margaret Michell who was born about 1826 according to the 1841 and 1881 Census records.

My information shows that John BRYANT was baptised at Lelant 18th May 1825 as son of John BRYANT and Priscilla (nee SCADDON) and also that he was deceased prior to the 1881 Census.

Hope this helps and will try to provide more as time permits.

Hi to you all.

I am still having a problem with the William BERRIMAN/BERRYMAN family from Towednack and of what area the family came from. Have not found Nick Berrymans site or been able to Rick Parsons site.

Any pointers please would be well appreciated.

Thank you George

If I've got the right family, it would appear that William and Wilmot were living at Chytodden, Towednack, in 1841.

George - as you will probably know I am a little limited for now and merely catching up but let me see what I can do briefly.

Seems the girls have pointed you in the right direction for Nick Berryman so I need to get you to Rick Parsons.

I think, from memory, that Rick is involved in the Online Parish Clerk program so you might try a search on 'CORNWALL OPC'.

But another option might be better utilising this site.

There should be a link here to 'Kathie's Home Page' (Zenobia) and I believe you will find a link via that to Rick Parsons.

If you cannot find it post a message back and I will get the link for you as soon as I can.

Thankyou m'darlin - I did not have the energy to find it properly given the last few weeks.

George - that should help you out and just 'follow the leads'.

Be in touch soon.
