      Q 31 Mar 1858, Rowe William James, Redruth, Vol - 5c, Page - 415,
      Q 31 Mar 1858, Stevens Jane, Redruth, Vol - 5c, Page - 415,

      William James Rowe (1855) was born to William James Rowe (1826) and Prisicilla Matilda Tippett on 13 May 1855 and Priscilla died in the Quarter ending 30 Sep 1857 aged approximately 27. Normally this occurs during child birth. As they had been married in 1854, I am supposing William James (1855) was the first born child, as he is named after the fathers father and then Priscilla had Nicholas who was named after her Father. Nicholas was Baptised in Gwinear on 15 Jul 1857 and I have now found GRO birth and death entries for him in the Sept Quarter 1857 the same Quarter that Priscilla died in. So I presume that they died within a few hours or days of each.
      As it appears there are no other children apart from William James (1855) and William James (1826) & Jane Stevens' children on the 1861 census, I presume that there were only two children to the first marriage. It is very unusual that records for Nicholas exist as people generally did not record such events, as births and then as deaths, unless the child survived for a significant period, so it is very rare that any record would have been created. This may indicate that Nicholas may have lived as much as the entire Quarter. The Death certificate for Priscilla may mention that she died as a result of complications of or during child birth and shed some light onto Nicholas' life. - Matt Falvey 6 Dec 2010
