Eleanor Luscombe (1819- )

Individual Events and Attributes

  • Birth:

  • Dec 1819

  • the Commercial Inn, Lower main Street, Totnes, Devon1 2

  •  

  • Eleanor was born before the registration of births, marriages and deaths started in 1837 and thus she did not have a birth certificate. The date of her birth is based on the date of her Baptism (2 January 1820). As it was normal practice for a child to be baptised shortly after the birth Eleanor's birth date is estimated to be December 1819. In the register the occupation of Eleanor's father, John, is shown as victualler and Pigot's Directory shows that he was the landlord of the Commercial Inn so it is assumed that Eleanor was born there.

  • Baptism:

  • 2 Jan 1820 (age 0)

  • the Parish & Priory Church of St Mary, Totnes, Devon3

  •  

  • ||As her parents names are recorded in the Baptismal Register it is assumed that they were present.

Individual Note

does not appear in either the 1841 or 1851 Censuses so it is assumed that she married or died before the 1841 Census was taken. As she is a minor branch no further research will be undertaken.
