Inverarity

Posted by Carolyn on 22/4/2025, 12:21 am

Hello. My great great grandfather Robert Henry Inverarity was supposedly born in Exmouth in 1828.
Does anyone have Inverarity family, or research for me to quiz further, please?

Thanks Joan, I've seen them. I'm after Littleham, but it's not there yet. Cheers.

Thanks Sally. I had the 1829 record. How did you find the Charlotte Inverarity one, please? I'm not getting her in burials for Inverarity or Charlotte,1853.
Is there a Parish Record for either? I cannot find them in Withycombe Raleigh Parish Registers for burials, which I assume covers Littleham.
I don't own the other family.
Are you a descendent, or just a helpful person?

Not related, just trying to help.
Charlotte's burial is in Littleham. 04.02.1853. aged 64. of Exmouth. Robert 27.02.1833. aged 46 of Exmouth. I found them on Find My Past.Sally

There is a plaque on wall of St Margaret and St Andrew Littleham for Captain Robert and Charlotte. On Find a Grave. Have found marriage for Robert and Charlotte 18.11.1822 at St. Marylebone. Charlotte Morison Widow. There is a Inverarity as a witness but can't make out the initial. On 1841 and 1851 Census, it appears that Charlotte was born in Bombay, India, British Subject. Sally

Thanks, yes I had all that, just wondered if you'd found them on this page, as I couldn't.
So Littleham Parish Records have not been photographed, or no longer exist?
And I'm still chasing the Morison kids Charlotte had with John, who died in India. They seem to have vanished. Charlotte's maiden name Sandwith.

I think Littleham records at Devon Heritage centre, not on I.G.I.yet

Have you tried familysearch.org and searched in India? I found a Alexander John born 1807, could be on census in Pembroke 1851 born East Indies, age a bit out, has children one of which became a surgeon.
Charlottes father must have been military.
Another Alexander is in New Zealand died there 1885
Death rate of children born in India is quite high, so might not have survived.

No, wrong family. see Find A Grave for latest update for family from Charlotte Inverarity, Littleham church. I'm doing lots of research but on an Ancestry tour from tomorrow with my Mum, down in the south east of Australia. So I'm signing off this chat for now, thanks to everyone.
