    2. Adrian Bruce
    3. <<snipped>> Ancestry database entitled Canada, British Regimental Registers of Service, 1756-1900 -under the listing of Somerset Volunteers: Trumpeters, Drummers & Privates. ... He's with 23rd Foot Soldiers, 2nd Battalion. Age 17. Military date in 2nd April 1813. ... <<snipped>> Just as an aside, the title of this collection, "Canada, British Regimental Registers of Service", is misleading - on a short look from me. So far as I have seen, the images come from British Army documents at Kew and it appears that whoever did the filming was fairly liberal in their definition of what "Canada" meant. In the 2 regiments I have checked through, both had a Canadian connection. The 1st Battalion of the 23rd, for instance, spent 1838-48 there. The 2nd Battalion was in Canada in the 1860s - in 1813 its last foreign location was Walcheren Island in the Netherlands. The other regiment I checked had a similar story - earlier battalions in Canada years before the data in the Collection. So you can get documents that go nowhere near Canada, simply because another battalion in the same regiment went there at another time. So don't ignore this collection if you have UK soldiers - and note, it's on Ancestry as a *Canadian* collection! Adrian

    3. Adding to this topic by Terry Blackmore and others, here is a word about the Cemetery records. I have found these are well worth while exploring as there is more to be found in them than in the church burial registers. This of course will relate to the late 1800s when the churchyards could not cope any longer and the Cemetery Act was passed to deal with this problem. Some years ago when I visited the Torquay Cemetery to see the grave of my grandparents, I saw that the stone recorded the name of their eldest daughter as being there with them. However, it was not until I went to their office to see the actual record that I found that their eldest son is also interred in the same grave. He is not recorded on their stone and I have no idea as to why his name does not appear there with those of his parents and his sister but there it is. Additionally I found that the Cemetery Records have the name of those persons who paid for the grave, digging etc and as this is usually a relative (plus their home address) that is another item not to be found in the Church records. Then (if you really want to know!) it also has the name of the funeral directors who handled all the arrangements for the burials. All in all makes this makes the Cemetery records well worth exploring for all of that additional info.

    1. Re: [DEV] BOW in Berry Pomeroy
    2. Joy Langdon
    3. I had come to the same conclusion by the same reasoning Tim.    Jill, you asked how Tim knew this.  Like Tim, once I found the son Arthur in the earlier census with a different father and a mother with a different first name but second name beginning with M and the same age and birthplace, plus there is a boarder called James Holman in the same household whose occupation the same as James Bow and his age and place of birth is the same as James Bow, I started to question the coincidences.  When added to that there is no birth registration for Florence and the other children in the household but there are other birth registrations for the same first names, right date, right place but with the surname Holman, then it all starts to fall into place.    The best way to prove this is to get the birth certificate for Florence Holman.  That should give the mother's maiden name.   William Holman married Jadwiga M. Lisowski Westminster Jun 1866 1A 710.   I couldn't find Jadwiga in the 1861 census but I think I may have found her on the 1851 census.  There is no baptism for Jadwiga but a Joseph and Mary Ann Lisowski baptised several children in St James including Adolphus in 1843.  I searched on Adolphus born c 1843, no surname, and found an entry on the 1851 census on Find My Past (the transcription has no surname, the transcriber gave up,, but the original does show Lisowski).  Adolphus is with father Joseph born c1800 Poland and sister Yadrick born c1847 living at 5 Broad Street, St James, Westminster.  I wondered if Yadrick was an attempt by the census enumerator at the name Jadwiga.    Joy ________________________________ From: Tim Treeby (Genealogy) <genealogy@ttenterprises.co.uk> To: devon@rootsweb.com Sent: Sunday, 1 December 2013, 2:02 Subject: Re: [DEV] BOW in Berry Pomeroy I have a convoluted theory which means that your James BOW was actually James Beazley HOLMAN but I could be wrong. My reasoning goes like this On 1891 Census (St George the Martyr, Soutwark) your James Bow is shown as being born 1851 in Torquay and is a Bricklayers Labourer. Also on that census shows a son Arthur born 1874 in Westminster, London. On checking the 1881 Census for this Arthur I found in (St George the Martyr, Southwark) an Arthur Bow, son of William Bow and Jadwiga Bow (Who's age and place of Birth matches your Mary Bow). Also on that Census was a James B Holman born 1851 in Torquay and is a Bricklayers Labourer. I believe that William Bow died and James Holman became Head of Household and was going by the name Bow at least on the Censuses. I say this because could not find any Births to match for Florence, George or James as a Bow, but found  a George and a James Holman Births which match the years given in 1891 and 1901 Census. Also on 1901 Census James Bow gives his occupation as Shoe Black Licensed. I have found Baptisms for a George Beazley Holman and a James Beazley Holman, Father given as James, Mother as Mary and occupation as Shoe Black. Unable to find a Jadwiga Bow on 1891/1901 Census but did find a death for Jadwiga Mary Bow aged 60 in 1910 - Southwark Vol 1d p 63. Also struggling to locate James B Holman on any Census after 1881 nor can i find a marriage or death for him but his Birth is registered in Newton Abbot District (which covers Torquay) in Q1 1851. Nor could i seem to find a marrige for Florence (Bow/Holman) to unknown Shepherd. Without getting her Death Certificate and finding out who the informant was and what the Address was and/or Birth Certificates for George Holman or James Holman, cannot say for certain my theory is correct. Hope this helps rather than hinders.

Hello Tim You are not wrong here In fact thankyou very very much I will tell you why Florence BOW I am told was the gran daughter of James Holman but I could not understand why the old lady meant She tell me that James was Holman I am still confused because his name is Bow in the census? But thank you very much I am going down that path I stupidly disregard the Holman name as hear say I just wonder how you actually know this? Jill ---- "Tim Treeby (Genealogy)" <> wrote: ============= I have a convoluted theory which means that your James BOW was actually James Beazley HOLMAN but I could be wrong. My reasoning goes like this On 1891 Census (St George the Martyr, Soutwark) your James Bow is shown as being born 1851 in Torquay and is a Bricklayers Labourer. Also on that census shows a son Arthur born 1874 in Westminster, London. On checking the 1881 Census for this Arthur I found in (St George the Martyr, Southwark) an Arthur Bow, son of William Bow and Jadwiga Bow (Who's age and place of Birth matches your Mary Bow). Also on that Census was a James B Holman born 1851 in Torquay and is a Bricklayers Labourer. I believe that William Bow died and James Holman became Head of Household and was going by the name Bow at least on the Censuses. I say this because could not find any Births to match for Florence, George or James as a Bow, but found a George and a James Holman Births which match the years given in 1891 and 1901 Census. Also on 1901 Census James Bow gives his occupation as Shoe Black Licensed. I have found Baptisms for a George Beazley Holman and a James Beazley Holman, Father given as James, Mother as Mary and occupation as Shoe Black. Unable to find a Jadwiga Bow on 1891/1901 Census but did find a death for Jadwiga Mary Bow aged 60 in 1910 - Southwark Vol 1d p 63. Also struggling to locate James B Holman on any Census after 1881 nor can i find a marriage or death for him but his Birth is registered in Newton Abbot District (which covers Torquay) in Q1 1851. Nor could i seem to find a marrige for Florence (Bow/Holman) to unknown Shepherd. Without getting her Death Certificate and finding out who the informant was and what the Address was and/or Birth Certificates for George Holman or James Holman, cannot say for certain my theory is correct. Hope this helps rather than hinders.

    3. Hi Bev Have you had a look at the 1:25,000 Ordnance Survey maps which are available on line at www.streetmap.co.uk - then zoom in to level 3 There's a group of three farms called Moore Farm, East Moore and West Moore between Rattery and Harberton http://www.streetmap.co.uk/idld.srf?X=274521&Y=59126&A=Y&Z=115&lm=1 which are probably the hamlet that you refer to and may well have been known as Morelands at one time. Alternatively there is a Moorshead, north-west of Rattery http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?X=271675&Y=63236&A=Y&Z=115 but this is in the parish of Dean Prior, so less likely. My money would be on the first of these, unless of course there was a house in the village of Rattery that was called Morelands.

    3. Hi Bev, given that almost every field is given a name which may change as the ownership of the field changes, there is on the 1840 Tithe map for Harberton a Moorland , owned by the Rev Luscombe tenanted by Joseph Earl , its 29 acres .. That may not be right , but there are other Moor , Blackmoor , Blakemoor also mentioned.plus of course lots of Unnamed land . life is hard . soften it with a cat \\\=^..^=/// ----- Original Message ----- From: "B.

    1. [DEV] MELHUISH OF TIVERTON - 1813 SOLDIER
    2. Pamela Willcocks
    3. To any lister who's related to a JOHN MELHUISH of Tiverton. I found him on an Ancestry database entitled Canada, British Regimental Registers of Service, 1756-1900 -under the listing of Somerset Volunteers: Trumpeters, Drummers & Privates. He was transcribed as Milbench and birthplace plain Devon. He's with 23rd Foot Soldiers, 2nd Battalion. Age 17. Military date in 2nd April 1813. As an aside, almost all of the Somerset-born soldiers have been transcribed as born in Lancaster! Names are badly transcribed too. I've corrected as many as possible. cheers, pamela

    3. Good Morning - I am hoping someone doing the BOW tree is on this list I am trying to connect to JAMES BOW born in or around 1851 Berry Pomeroy - but he says in the 1901 and 1911 census in Southwark London that he was born in Torquay, Devon. The only James BOW I could find was this James Henry BOW son of Thomas BOW and Ann CUMMING - I took a look at the Family trees on Ancestry and none of them have this James Married some do not have it on their trees at all My James and his wife Mary born in 1850 St James London were in the 1901 census - can find no marriage entry for them. James is in the 1861 census with his family then missing until 1891 where he appear to be in London with a wife Mary. He is widowed in 1911 living in Walworth Southwark, with him is his daughter Florence [nee BOW] SHEPHERD and her children. Florence eventually re marries Albert GOULD but that is not what I am searching for IS this the correct James ? was his real name James Henry BOW is Torquay near enough to Berry Pomeroy to say he was born there? What happened to him between 1861 and 1881? A Big ask I know but maybe something will click to a list member PS I did work on the premise that he was James BOW born in Chetnole Dorset but I now know this is not him Thank you in anticipation Jill -- Jill [ARNOLD] MORLEY O.P.C.
