 Research Notes:
Lavinia understated her age in the 1871, 1881, 1891 and 1911 Censuses (there was no Lavinia Marks born in the early to mid 1840s in either Gwithian or Gwinear). Similarly Lavinia's husband gave his birthplace variously as St. Keverne (1871), Sithney (1881) and Breage (1891, 1911).... he was born in Sithney (his father was born in Breage and his mother in St. Keverne)
