NOTE

Frederick, a Quarry Labourer, was born c 1834 at St. Dennis, Cornwall & died in 1906 *. Ellen died in infancy & Fanny died aged 21. Other tree's have another dau., Angelina Grigg Kent, born c 1869 & died in infancy but I can't find any evidence of that ?

Clara married Coryton Tom Pearce in 1879 & died shortly after aged 17 yrs. I believe Fred left England via the Port of Liverpool in May 1888 on the vessel 'Egypt' & arrived at the Port of New York 21st May 1888. He left a dau., Elizabeth who would later join him in Cleveland Heights, Cuyahoga, Ohio. Fred married Harriet A. Brown c 1898 & they lived in Ohio.

* Several people have submitted birth & baptism details on the IGI which don't quite match. Born 10 Oct. 1834 & bap. 22 Jan. 1837 at Bible Christian, St Ervan, Cornwall & parents 'Mr. Richards' & Jenefer Kent. His middle name may have been 'Richards' & was probably illigitimate.

Mary & Frederick were living at Terlavour North, St. Dennis, Cornwall in the 1861 census & later the family were living at Carne, St. Dennis, Cornwall in 1871. Frederick, now a widow, is living at the same place with children, Alma, Fred, John, Fanny & Angelina in 1881.

Frederick, now re-married (Mary Stephens), is living in the same area in 1891 & 1901. Daus., Fanny & Angelina are also present in the former.
