HENDER AND PETER FAMILIESHere we will first present the Thomas Hender of Altarnun and Sarah Adams family from whom the Hender sons and daughter descend who married into two Peter families. Though this is a duplicate effort with that of the 'Hender Cousin' pages, it is felt that it is important effort to address the Hender-Peter family marriages and ties on a separate page of their own also. Thus from the Hender Cousin pages is transfered the simple pedigree of the Thomas and Sarah family and their 7 children.
John Hender = Grace Luskey(Liskey) John Adams = Sarah Bath(2nd wife)

* This is Jenny Peter the daughter of John Peter and Elizabeth Marten christened 26 December 1796
at North Hill.
** Thomas Hender on 1881 Census, Laira, Devon as Toll Collector age 62 with
family and grandchildren etc. See Altarnun subdirectory.
^^ This is Jenny Peter, sister of the Peter brothers? who married Mary and Grace Hender, sisters
of John Hender. At ages of 54/55 and 43 respectively, John and Jenny appear to have had no
offspring. Jenny was christened 13 March 1798 at North Hill, daughter of Richard and Elizabeth
Peter of Illand. This Jenny had first married Edward Garland and secondly married John Hender.
Now, looking at the Hender and Peter family marriages and looking at the Visitations of Cornwall
text on pages 608 and 609, it presents the Peter Family of Launceston pedigree, which on page 609
shows two marriages between the Hender family of Thomas Hender and the Peter family of John Peter
and Elizabeth Turner. I'll begin with an extracted family pedigree from that portion in red of the
pedigree which sets out the family of John Peter and Elizabeth Turner and then I will build from
there into the marriages of that family with the Hender family of Thomas Hender and Sarah Adams of
Altarnun.

Grace Hender is my 4th great aunt, the daughter of Thomas Hender of Altarnun and his wife Sarah Adams. Thomas Hender and Sarah Adams are my 4th great grandparents. Thus this is a family of my 4gu and the Peter children of this marriage are my distant related cousins. I'll first set out a simple pedigree form for this family followed by such documentation as will further identify them and establish them as to who they are and such as what I know of them. The parents married at Altarnun which is customary to so marry at the wife's home parish. The thence moved to and lived in the parish of Callington. Since the Callington parish register was belatedly released, the OPC Cornwall parish register database does not currently have many of the Callington entries. You can fine many of the Callington Parish Registry entries as shared by the 'Callington Heritage Centre' online. Such Peter family related entries as I can determine from that source I have supplied in a table below which is the manner in which the Callington Heritage Centre has chosen to share them in.

* Living in callington at this time are Grace Peter nee Hender wife of Richard Peter
dec'd 1836 and Grace's son Richard Thomas Hender Peter her son and his family. Also
once living there in Callington was Grace's brother William Hender, watch and clockmaker
and his family, now retired to Venterdon in Stoke Climsland. Further currently still
in Callington is Grace Peter nee Hender's and William Hender's second cousin William
Bury Hender MD and his father William Hender Surgeon. Grace's and William father, Thomas
Hender and William Hender, Surgeon, Gentlemen, Esq. would be first cousins. Thomas'
father was John Hender whose wife was Grace Luskey was the brother of William Hender
who married Annabella Edgcombe. William Hender, Surgeon was their son and thus Thomas
Hender who married Sarah Adams and William Hender, Surgeon who married Elizabeth Bury
were first cousins, each of their fathers, Thomas and William, being brothers, sons of
John Hender and Grace Luskey. So Callington was a place which had family relations all
about the town from the early to mid 1800s.

* Where does the name Hender come from? I have seen Elizabeth Marten's name sometimes given as
Elizabeth Hender Marten. This is because her mother was Elizabeth Hender of North Hill, of the
North Hill Hender family. Elizabeth Marten is the daughter of John Marten and Elizabeth Hender.
This Elizabeth Hender is the daughter of Thomas Hender and Joan Reed. So some of the Peter
children of John Peter and Elizabeth [Hender] Marten were given the name Hender as their middle
names because grandma Marten was a daughter of the Hender family of Thomas Hender and Joan Reed.

(No Known Children from this Marriages)
Since there are no known children and thus now cousins here, the story line becomes an effort
to follow the lives of John Hender and Jenny/Jane Peter born 1798. And one avenue to do this
is to identify her and John Hender on each of the decade spaced.

This 1861 Census puts a number of families together. Samuel Peter, Uncle, unmarried, age
76 is Samuel Peter the son of Richard and Elizabeth Peter of North Hill (Illand). Mary
Dennis is Mary Peter daughter of Richard and Elizabeth Peter of North Hill (Illand). She
is the Mother in law of John Strout head of house and mother of Mary Strout nee
Dennis whose mother Mary Peter married Thomas Dennis. And this Mary Dennis nee Peter is
the sister of Samuel Peter. And Jane Hender is actually Jenny Hender (Jane for Jenny —
nicknames), the wife of John Hender the son of Thomas Hender and Sarah Adams. And which
Jenny/Jane Hender nee Peter is the sister of Mary or both Samuel Peter and Mary Dennis
nee Peter, the daughter of Richard and Elizabeth Peter of North Hill. I would also suggest
that the 'difference' in Jane/Jenny's age, though not significant' may be to the fact that
sisters Mary and Jenny Peter may have always thought of themselves as 10 years apart and
if Mary was 71, then Jenny was 61 in family group reporting.

* Thomas Hender (III) is reported to have been married to Mary Tinney of St Gennys, Cornwall at
Launceston Dist?
** William Hender, son of Thomas Hender and Jenny Peter, was born in the month of March 1822.
He was then christened/baptized on 6 April 1822. And he then died an infant death in May 1822
at the age of 2 months and was buried at Altarnun 11 May 1822. The fact of the matter are there
to be seen in the Altarnun Parish Register. (See also further below as note continues there)
Now in Pink highlight are such members of the Peter family associated with Thomas Hender and his wife Jenny. There at Illand is brother Robert Peter, his wife Elizabeth Stevens and their 4 children. Also basically next door is father or 'Grandpa' John Peter, brother Samuel Peter and his wife Susanna, and their son John Peter born in 1820. And there looks to be a granddaughter/neice, one year old Jane West.
Though both of the Peter families are of North Hill. Those who I've copied here seem to be one sidely of the family of Jenny Peter born 1796 who married Thomas Hender, the in-law Peters of Thomas and family and siblings of Jenny Peter of 1796. That is except for William Worth Hender and his uncle inlaw Samuel Peter of the other Peter family who three Hender children married into. Back in Callington, where William Worth Hender and his siblings were born and raised, there is to be found the Peter family of Richard Peter and Mary Hender. Mary Peter nee Hender is the sister of William Hender the clockmaker and aunt to William Worth Hender. Bachelor Samuel Peter is the brother of Richard Peter, Mary's husband and he would be her brother-in-law and William Worth Hender's Uncle in law. All are related in some manner, but for sure William Hender the apprentice saddler is the son of William Hender the clockmaker and my 3ggf and William Worth Hender is therefore my 3gu as well. I suppose that makes of the Peter families my distance inlaws as well.
Why am I so sure that William Worth Hender is this William Hender, will I have the family will of William Hender clockmaker naming William Worth Hender as his son and I have Elizabeth Ann Hender's birth cirtificate and wedding record which also lists William Worth Hender as her father. So I know he is not the dead William Hender, son of Thomas and Jenny Hender. And I know that HE IS the son of William Hender and Elizabeth Rowe and HE IS the father Elizabeth Ann Hender who married John Henry Bennetts. The evidence stacks up both ways-IS and ISN'T.

Since the Thomas Hender (jr) and Jenny Peter family began after their marriage of 1817,
beginning with the 1841 census we are dealing with nearly adult children. Here in Altarnun
on the family property (Tregrenna/Tregenna) is found Thomas Hender (III), and his sisters
Elizabeth and Jane likely running the 'homestead' so to speak. Due to the 1841 Census
rounding rule the ages are not accurately given. Thomas born 1819 would be 22 not the
rounded down 20. Elizabeth would be about age 18 not the rounded down 15 and Jane would be
about 16 rather than the rounded down 15. The parents, Thomas Hender (jr) and Jenny Hender
nee Peter, are living and locted elsewhere next given:

NOTE: ****A prime example of jumping to the 'easy first fit' while ignoring the realities
of a matter is to be seen here in the case of William Hender son of Thomas Hender and Jenny
Peter and William Worth Hender (the son of William Hender, watch and clockmaker and his wife
Elizabeth Rowe) which William Worth Hender lives to become a Saddler and marry Elizabeth Tresize/Trezise.
They have a daughter named Elizabeth Ann Hender who marries John Henry Bennetts. It really brakes down
by NOT being clever enough to check and associate the burial records of Alternun.
William Hender, son of Thomas Hender and Jenny Peter, was born in March, baptized in April and
died in May and he was buried on the 11 May 1822 at age 2 months.
* One additional fact, beyond the most obvious one of the death of the 2 month old William Hender of Altarnun, is that this Samuel Peter age 55, is the confirmed bachelor son of Richard Peter and Elizabeth Turner. ANOTHER Samuel Peter is that of John Peter and Elizabeth Marten, and they who's daughter Jenny Peter (1796) married Thomas Hender. The daughter of Richard Peter and Elizabeth Turner, married into the same Hender family to John Hender and thus they are closely related but not the same.
