Hi Listers, I'm seeking some assistance on the above marriage. It took place on 3 Nov 1836 at Tywardreath, I assume St. Andrew's Parish Church. The Groom was reputed to be William PRYNN bap: 18 Mar 1716 at Tywardreath, once again I assume he was baptised at St. Andrew's Parish Church. I have just found out the above William PRYNN died on 4 Jul 1719 at Tywardreath, So obviously it wasn't him. I was advised from a nice lister the other night, that up until 1929 in England & Wales a male could marry at age 14 and a female at 12 with parental consent. With that being the case they named a later child William also, he was baptised on 12 Jun 1726 at Tywardreath [St. Andrew's ?]. If he wasn't baptised until he was 4 years or older than he could be the one I'm looking for. It's been suggested; there's a William PRYNN baptised at St. Veep Cornwall in 1716, but I don't think it's him because the father is Philip PRYNN and that Christian name's not common to the families ascendancy, where as Robert is a recurring Christian name in this particular line of the PRYNN family. Happy Days, John NSW Australia Where if the Sun's not shining, then its probably raining. It there any way that William PRYNN 1726's birth date can be found and verified against the actual register.

Hi John, Have you considered an earlier date for William's birth?  Looking on the IGI, there is a possible baptism at Luxulyan (4 miles from Tywardreath) 31 May 1701 William PRINN son of William and Jane.  There is a bit of circumstantial evidence.  I searched for births using William and Joan Prynn as parents and one of their children was named Josepha which seemed quite unusual.  I searched for Josepha Prynn and there was an earlier one - at Luxulyan, Josepha PRINNE 9th Sep 1712 parents William and Jane. Given that a William and Joan Prynn baptised 2 daughters at Tywardreath and one was named Jane (1750) and the other Josepha (1741) it does seem worth consideration.   Regards, Joy ________________________________ From: John Griffiths <johnjgriffiths@bigpond.com> To: CORNISH-GEN <CORNISH-GEN@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, 21 April, 2010 10:45:19 Subject: [CORNISH-GEN] MARRIAGE OF WILLIAM PRYNN to JOAN DADDOW Hi Listers, I'm seeking some assistance on the above marriage.
