From Find a Grave:

Temperance Hawken Davey


Birth: 1776
St Breward
Cornwall, England
Death: Dec. 12, 1824
St Cleer
Cornwall, England

Temperance was born to Joseph Hawken and Agnes Hoskin in St. Breward, Cornwall.

She married Thomas Davey sometime before 1802 and together they had 4 kids that I know of:
Peter Davey 1802-
Mary Hawken Davey 1805-1871
Thomas Davey 1806-1897                                                                          St Cleer Parish Church Graveyard
Hannah Davey 1808-1848

Temperance died in December of 1824.
The burial record states that she died from complications of rheumatic fever. She was in Lower Treweatha at the time.

Note: her actual death date may be a few days before Dec.12, as that is actually her burial date.

Her death record also had her last name spelled as DAVY.

Mary Hawken Davey Honey

Birth: 1805
St Minver Lowlands
Cornwall, England
Death: Jul., 1871
Liskeard
Cornwall, England

Mary was born in St. Minver to Thomas Davey and Temperance Hawken.

As Findagrave only provided birth drop-down options of St. Minver Highlands and St. Minver Lowlands, I picked one at random - not knowing which she may have actually been born in. If there was one called just St. Minver I would have chosen that one.

She married Thomas Honey in St. Cleer in 1833 and together they had one daughter Jane Hawken Honey b.1834 and one son William Honey b.1838

She passed away in July of 1871.

The OPC burial information states that she was buried in St. Cleer on July.14, 1871 and it stated her age of 67, which fits her birth year. However it did not specify a cemetery name.
* So this is just an educated guess that she may be buried at this cemetery *

Her husband Thomas Honey went on to marry Elizabeth Sweet in 1877 and the OPC info shows his resting place to be St. Nectans Church cemetery in St. Winnow.

Note here how the census taker wrote the name Hender and how the transcriber, not being familiar with the name did write the name 'Hender' and also note that the same must have been familiar with Davey to get it right. Further the Richard J Davey is Richar P Davey as the census taker makes the same 'P' in Mary P Davey's name as well.
Both brother John Edwin Peter Davey and sister Jane Peter Davey are not living at home. John likely is off being trained to become a Schoolmaster and Jane will be found in Callington next below. And of course there is the new child Mary Peter Davey as well. Thomas Davey is still living but not at home but for some reason is in the Bodmin Gaol see further below. 1851 Census - Enumeration District 3a Civil Parish of Callington, Eccl.

The transcription oddities here is that which was written as an 'H' is turned into an 'F' and that which looked more as 35 did come out correctly as 55. Perhaps the transcriber did reason that a 35 year old would not have had a 26 year old son?

Richard Peter Davey and Elizabeth Toms Family

* Most set forth that this is his marriage to Elizabeth TOMS, as do I.
** Some have his death as early as 1881, which is not correct as he and his wife appear on
 the 1891, 1901 and 1911 census records that are available. The most credible report is a
 death date of 1923 (see below).
Just when Richard Peter Davey converted to being of the Methodist Wesleyan faith is not readily known. There is presently no adult baptism found and he was appearently first baptized Church of England as that is how it is presented to be in the OPC supplied records. And presently there is no evidence that this couple had any living surviving children. Now between 1861 and 1871 Richard is followed to have become a Wesleyan Methodist Minister, processing from being a butcher to a congresional Minister leader.

With Thomas Toms being identified as Elizabeth Toms' father on the 1881 census, the only Elizabeth Toms match found that matches living date to a 1836 birth date is one found in Boconnoc, that being the one referenced above. There Thomas is the Head of house, in the wife's position is Honour, and in the children's position, Mary Toms age 6 and Elizabeth Toms age 5.

ED3 Wanstrow, Somerset, England 1881 Census - visitor (Church of St Mary) - Studley Farm
However the census was actually conducted on Sunday April 3 1881, Richard Peter Davey, Wesleyan Misister seems to have been traveling that day and has been recorded in two different households, his own and one that he had visited during the same census event.
ED8 Lyncombe & Widcombe, Bath, St Thomas a Becket, Somerset, England 1881 Census - 9 Forefield Place
If on any day, Sunday certainly is the day of the week that a Minister would be moving about. In his own household which comes together from the faithful servant Sarah Jackman's present to a very interesting revelation that Elizabeth's father is Thomas Toms, age 75 in 1881.

Perhaps what leads some to presume that Richard P Davey must have died 1881, is their lack of ability to find him where he was at during the time of that census. The distance from Bath to Wanstow is about 20 miles, a do able distance. And if the actual locations are just in those two District and the actual placement of the two location within those districts could even make it a shorter distance. As for 'Foresfield Place, it is right in Bath. Now the 'trump' is that there was a railway that would run the distance that by automobile today was about a half and hour, would make that trip in about an hour or so in 1881.

Wanstrow Primitive Wesleyan Methodist Chapel (1877 A.D.) is just around the corner and is near Studley Lane and Farm. Richard P Davey, Wesleyan Minister, would have been on circuit assignment from Bath by railway (with the Railway Hotel listed on the same Census District 3 of Wanstrow*—from Bath to Wanstrow Church & Studley Farm (near to Coles Farm) in Wanstow in 1881: The trip was ably done with time to spare for Minister Richard P Davey to have taken on that Sunday, April 3, 1881. The Census record reports that he did, being listed at both locations that day.

Now back to the consideration of the father of Elizabeth Toms being Thomas Toms age 75 in 1881. That would mean that back in 1841 this Thomas Toms would be about 35 years old. Also now consider what is meant by being born in Liskeard in 1836 when this Thomas Toms was age about 30. Liskeard whether a registration district or Parish boundry, had began to include many smaller communities reaching as far south as Morval, and as wide as from Duloe to Menehiot and beyond. And thus the seach for this family may widen beyond just the Borough of the city of Liskeard where the parish church is located. And when one reports this place of birth, that is not necessarily the parish nearest them but what 'place' big and wide or as small as it may be.

* The Census of Wanstrow District 3 discription reads: "Wanstrow - Civil Parish     All that part of the Parish of Wanstrow East of the Road leading from Frome to Bruton inluding cottage on the Common Coles Farm Wanstrow Street both sides, Studley and the ?Brundry? near Upton Noble also the Rectory." (The curse of reading cursive resides).

1901 Somerset St. Decumans Willion Willington, Somerset
Richard P Davey, in his older age, cut such a figure and stature that he could no longer be left just in Cornwall. And thus we find him living with his wife Elizabeth and their faithful servant Sarah E Jackaman in Somerset, Decumans, Williton.
1911 6 Barnfield? Ter Liskeard Cornwall
Now there are bits of information contained upon the 1911 census that were personally filled out by that can be noted and used in further properly identifiying certain matters concern Richard Peter Davey and his wife Elizabeth Toms. One of those matters it when were Richard Peter Davey and Elizabeth Toms married. The cesus reports that Richard and Elizabeth were 75 years old in 1911 and that they had been married for 50 years. As simple arithmatic calculation would indicated that 50 years prior to 1911, is when Richard and Elizabeth were married (1911-50=1861) at age 25 (75-50). As noted above, the idex of marriages may be used to review the summary of that marriage and to locate the information that Robert Peter Davey and obviously 'Elizabeth Toms' were married in the first quarter of 1861, January-March. If one were so inclined, using the referenced listing for that event in the index and order and receive a certified copy of that marriage event upon which would have been the father to Elizabeth Toms and to Richard Peter Davey. This would perhaps help to find who Elizabeth Toms' family was. The other item that is confirmed is that Richard and Elizabeth had not children. Under the listing of Children born alive, living and have died, report is 'none.' Thus there is no need to even attempt any such search for the possibility of this couple have children, a family and posterity. I have to suppose that their congregations where their children and families.
