Re: Thomas Corrin
In Response To: Re: Thomas Corrin ()

Re Thomas Corrin postings, for which Donna gave me the monumental inscription, I now have a problem!!!
He died July 1868 aged 42 yrs, making his probable year of birth c 1826.

I have 1851 census where it gave him to be 27 yrs.of age - so probable year of birth 1824.

I took him to be the Thomas Corrin christened 20/03/1823 Arbory to William and Esther Corrin nee Costean.

I do know for certain that he was the Thomas who married Eleanor White 03/11/1849 - Kirk Rushen.

I now have the awful feeling I have traced the wrong ancestors of Thomas...

The possibility is that he was the son of John and Jane Corrin (nee Nelson)- christened 30/10/1825 Kirk Rushen.

I know I will be told I should have "checked and checked again"!

Would value any views.
