I could use a little help if you have a spare minute. could you give me
the number of Wherry families living in Callington in 1891? It may be a
bit early, the youngest child of Fred Wherry and his blushing bride Jane
Irwin was born in 1899. I could also use any information you come accross
on the Irwin Family. Richard was Jane's Father, and I think that there was
only one family of Irwin's in Callington in 1871. In that census it says
Richard was born in Callington, but if it says something else I would be
glad to hear of it.

I would appreciate any bits of information you might be able to find, my
last visit to Cornwall was a geneologists nightmare. So I am trying to
get as much information as I can before I try to swim across the big
waters again..... ;-}
