NOTE

Ginny (1813-1884), of Liskeard, Cornwall. Charles may have emigrated to USA. Ginny is shown as a widow in the 1861 census however there is no death recorded for Charles between the 1851 & 1861 census & she's recorded as 'Single' in the 1881 census so they possibly devorced or most likely just split up. She also had an illigitimate child Richard Edward Parsons Cossentine (1854-1855) with Edward Parsons.

Also see this entry in the Index of Wills and Administrations from 1915.
