Thread: Cornwall Surnames

I am researching the following names in St Austell,Cornwall:



Stoneman

Nicholls





This family left for Canada in 1850, and I have the Canadian information.

What I have to date is;

Thomas Stoneman 1791 Cornwall(lived in St Austell in 1841)

Married Martha ? b in Cornwall c 1791

4 children

William Peter 1818 Cornwall died in Canada

James 1821 Cornwall, died in Canada

John 1827 Cornwall, died in Canada

Elizabeth 1823 Cornwall died in Canada



Elizabeth Married John Nicholls Q2 1846 St Austell



John Nicholls born Cornwall 15 April 1824 (date from Cdn census)



Elizabeth and John had 2 children before leaving for Canada

William 1 Mar 1847

Thomas 30 Jul 1848

The rest of the children were born in Canada



I take from Cdn records the families immigrated in 1850, cannot find any passenger lists for them. Cannot find Thomas or Martha in Canada or England after 1841 Census.
