-------------------------
Shortly after the birth of Cordelia's second child, James, the family moved to Devonport in Devon. A daughter, Cordelia, was christened 20 Aug 1793 in Stoke Damerel (just under a mile from Devonport) and was buried a couple of months later on 16 October. Her husband, James Trezise, who was shipwright, died in January 1794 at the age of 34 years. James Trezise Jr., christened in Mylor Cornwall 25 Mar 1792, was buried on 12 Nov 1795 in Stoke Damerel, aged 4 years according to the burial record. Cordelia and her eldest daughter Mary alone survived.
Three year later Cordelia remarried to Daniel Kestell, also a shipwright, by whom she had three children. Of these, the first two died in infancy, and the third, Susannah, born 2 May 1800 in Devonport, married Richard Oliver, a boatswain in the Royal Navy, on 21 Jul 1829 in Stoke Damerel.
Cordelia's daughter, Mary, married in 1809 to a carpenter named John Mayne (otherwise spelled Meayn) and together they had three children, all born in Devonport. At some point after the birth of their third child in 1814 the family moved to Southwark in the county of Surrey. It was probably shortly after the death of her second husband in 1826 that Cordelia Kestell joined her daughter in Surrey, where she spent the remainder of her long life.
