Augustine Tenussi died 24/03/1852 in Faubourg de Nantes, Rennes, Ille-et-Vilaine, Brittany, France, aged 21 months, born in Jersey.
Died at the home of parents Joseph (aged 48 ), occupation mouleur en platre (plaster caster), and Jeanne Riva.

Per Ancestry.com., Upper Brittany, France Deaths & Burials, 1540-1907

So the famiily were in Jersey in 1850, and Nantes in 1852. Where in 1851?!

The 44th regiment in Isle of White Sept 1848 and in Feb 1849 the 44th and 36th
They were married in June.
I'm thinking maybe it was the 44th as then they would have at least a few more months to be courting!
Or was it a shot gun wedding and maybe she died in childbirth.

I could kiss U for finding that piece of info about Augustina as that proves that the family were in france. I said that they were in the westminster area but that was a mistake. :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Mary - these were my sentiments entirely! But if that is her in the 1852 death record it is hard to find a corresponding birth/death of a baby - assuming baby died.......

Reposting earlier question

Who were the witnesses at the 1849 wedding? It might help pinpoint his regiment if they were soldiers.

Connie good find...but, without wishing to pour cold water on all this, I thought we were trying to solve the disappearance of Thomas and Maria after they wed in 1849. Other than we are surmising she died (because of the naming of another sister in 1852) we are no nearer to finding out what happened to them - especially Thomas.

Can't see Joseph and Jessie/Janet in Channel Islands in 1851 census so maybe already moved to France?
