James Mayne - Born 9 April 1829 , St Agnes, Cornwall
Dear All,
I would like to receive information about my greatgrandfather, James Mayne, born 9 April, 1829 in St Agnes, Cornwall, England. He emigrated to South America and settled down here in Chile. Married a chilean lady and had 3 children. Died in ViƱa del Mar, Chile 8 July 1889.
I have an old family Bible, where I found some information handwritten by my ancestors where it says that James Mayne's parents were Exequiel Mayne and Eleanor Schemin. I have searched in the web for these names and have not found information. I contacted the Cornish Studies Library from Cornwall and gave my greatgranfather's information and received a copy of the Cornwall Marriage Index 1813-1837 and copy of the 1851 census also, where it shows that James Mayne's parents are Isaac Mayne and Ellinor Hermon. I am disappointed since this information does not agree to what I have seen in the family bible.
If someone could help me to clarify this information I would greatly appeciate it.
Thanks
Guillermo Mayne ([email protected])
