Thread: Tippett - Cornwall

Chiad Fhear

I noticed Tippett - Cornwall on the Surnames lst and am curious!

My late father-in-law as Arthur Reginald Tippett from Redruth (ish)

Hi Chiad Fhear,

That was me. If they were from Redruth/Camborne area I know exactly what part of my tree they were on and what family from Hampshire joined that line.
I was given some information which I added to my tree which connected one of my lines to the Sheriff of Cornwall. This bit was ok, but I added some other information which I later found was wrong and landed up removing some of the important bits by mistake, including Tippett.
Would Arthur have been born around 1904 or is that too early ?

Hi Starlight

I'm at work at the moment and don't have access to my tree but I'll check when I get home and let you know.

I don't have a lot on him but I do know his father was a stone mason and had 'Stanley' either as a first or second name. His mother was Effie Prisk and his birth date was 9 November ... same as mine but several years before me ... and he was actually born in Boston Massachusetts.

As I said before, I haven't really started going up that tree yet but I will do when I get my own mum and dad's branches completed ... if they'll ever be complete!

Hi Starlight ... home now, fed and watered, and able to respond to your post. This is all that I have for my Tippett branch ...

Hi Pips

I'd almost forgotten about the original post and was surprised to get your response over the weekend.

I haven't really 'pursued' my wife's family yet beyond her parents but I do have a copy of the Marriage Certicifate for her grand-parents, Arthur Stanley Tippett and Effie Prisk from 3 Apr 1920 at the Wesley Chapel, East End of Redruth. He was 28 and she 25. I also have Ellis Island immigration records for them when they went to Quincy, Masachussets in the USA - Arthur in May 1920 and Effie in Dec 1920 - where my wife's father was born the following November.

The Jun Q 1892 for Arthur Stanley T would fit with the information I have already.

Thanks for your help
