ALL TIED UP!

     PERHAPS I am just an old cynic, but I do find all the for 'free' or for 'pay' genealogy share information sites very exasperating. Nothing is for 'free,' so what besides control and ownership of your transmitted and received information do they get out of their 'free' providing of a closed circuit, controlled by them, of your information? And 'pay' sites get the best of both worlds. 1) The free collection of all that information which they claim use of and ownership of and 2) your paid subscriptions to let them do that. Yes there is a lot of good information that can be found but who has time to join and keep track of all 101 such sites who are 'close circuiting' the information super highway of the internet's information. For example, for some number of years, since the 1900s, I've had the answers to this plea for help, but I can't even email it to them directly for free because they are tied up in a closed circuit of a 'controled' share membership web site.

Follow the plea and the answers supplied in the two following columns:

In 1851, John Strout, is living with his in
laws. they are Thomas and Mary Dennis.
(Piece: HO107/1899 Place: Alternon -Cornwall
Enumeration District: 4a Civil Parish:
Lewannick Ecclesiastical Parish: - Folio:
87 Page: 11 Schedule: 40 Address: Pollyphant).

In 1861, John Strout, has his mother in law Mary Dennis,
Jane Hender an aunt by law  and his Uncle in law Samuel
Peter, living with him ( Piece: RG9/1517 Place: Launceston
-Cornwall Enumeration District: 7 Civil Parish: Lewannick
Ecclesiastical Parish: - Folio: 59 Page: 3 Schedule: 12
Address: Polyphant ).

Mary Dennis bc 1790( widow ), Jane Hender bc 1800( widow )
and Samuel Peter bc 1785 are all born in Northill.

I am wondering, if Mary, Jane and Samuel  ( Peter ) are
siblings ? Can someone find Baptisms for them please ?

Also marriages for Mary  ( Peter ? ), to Thomas Dennis.
Jane ( Peter ? ) to Unknown Hender(  looking at censuses
in 1851 and 1841, this could be a John Hender, saddler,
who has wife Jane / Jenny ), please ?

John Strout, also names one of his children, Mary Peter Strout.

Thank you.
Hopefully 'Sob' has found out. He/she are on the right trail. Facts are:
Richard Peter married Elizabeth Turner and they had 9 children.
1. Son John Peter married Mary Hender, my 3rdgg aunt.
2. Son Edmund Peter, solicitor died in London.
3. Son Richard Peter married Grace Hender my 3rdgg aunt.
4. Son Samuel Peter b. 1 Sep 1784 was a confirmed bachelor.
5. Dau Elisabeth ...
6. Dau Mary Peter b. 11 Dec 1789 married Thomas Dennis of Lewannick, son of William Dennis and Catherine Whale.
7. Son Thomas Peter d. 15 Aug 1812 at North Hill.
8. Dau Susanna Peter ...
9. Dau Jenny/Jane Peter b. 11 Feb 1798, married first a Mr. Garland, married second John Hender, a half-cousin and saddler of Polyphant. John Hender is my 3rdgg uncle.
All baptisms are in North Hill under Peters or Peter. Use OPC to find.

And even more sadly, I've taken note that often these closed up shared memberships have concluded upon some very odd and erroneous conclusions of what they now consider the truth concerning this or that pedigree. Having closed themselves off from the 'world' they have been left to their own contrived innovated solutions, which in some cases can readily be proven wrong by various sets of 'the facts.'
