Find Ancestors

If anyone is researching the Corby Family from Coventry descending from Charles Corby 1773 please get in touch, especially if you have found Charles ancestors. Cheers Graham Powell

I now have some 30 contacts with others resarching this line of descent and we are all stuck at Charles Corby 1766/73 - 1861, m to Sarah nee Brown 1773 on 4March 1828. We have them in the 1841 Census and they had the following children William 1794, Charles 1796, Thomas 1798. Charles 1801, Edward 1806, FREDERICK 1808, ( my line of descent ) Joseph 1811 and Henry 1816. We also have the children's baptism dates. all at St Michael's Church, Coventry.
If anyone has info prior to this we would all be delighted to hear from you. Also, if you need the info I have for this line, please get in touch.

Best Regards

Graham Powell ( my Mother was a Corby)

Please, will you post the 1841 census for our reference, Graham?

I'm not seeing it so far.

Nor am I.................

If Charles didn't die until 1861, he should be on 1851 census - at least - with birthplace info.

BUT....................I can't see him!

Might be on the 1861 census as well, but not seeing him on any.

Unless Graham has the 1861 death cert, he can't possibly know that it relates to a man born almost 100 years earlier

I'd like to bet it was a much younger man.................

can't see this one after 1861
