Philippa CARPENTER

  • Born: 1766, Illogan, Cornwall
  • Christened: 9 Mar 1766, Illogan, Cornwall 1
  • Married: 21 Sep 1795, Gwennap, Cornwall 2

  Research Notes:

As one of the children of Elizabeth wife of Henry Carpenter, Philippa was bequeathed 20 shillings in the Will of her uncle John Tellam of Illogan, yeoman (written 1773).

----------------------------

In 1841 Phillipa Trewortha, aged about 70, was with [her son] Jas. Trewortha, aged about 40, Ind[ependent], in Lanner, Gwennap.

----------------------------

Filly Trewartha of Rough Street died aged 93 years (burial record). Given (a) Philippa was close to 70 years old in 1841; (b) there is no record of her in the Censuses thereafter; (c) there is no other entry in the GROE death index for any other Philippa or Filly Trewartha (allowing for orthographic variations) between 1841 and 1861; (d) There is no other Trewartha who married a Philippa or Filly within the relevant period (noting Philippa's husband, Thomas, is shown in the burial register as having also resided in Rough Street); and (e) if she were 93 she would have been in her 40s by the time she began having children, which is unlikely, then the ages given in both the burial record and in the GROE death index (where her age is shown as 90) are incorrect.

  Marriage Information:

Philippa married Thomas TREWARTHA, son of Thomas TREWARTHA and Ann HOCKING, on 21 Sep 1795 in Gwennap, Cornwall. (Thomas TREWARTHA was born about 1767 in Gwennap, Cornwall, christened on 16 May 1769 in Gwennap, Cornwall and was buried on 23 Sep 1828 in Gwennap, Cornwall.)
