Biography

John was born in 1780 and married Anne Vague Oct. 12, 1803 in Pelynt. He was a blacksmith like his father and older brother William. Witnesses were Catherine Harding and John Vague who was also a witness for the wedding of John's older brother William.

Anne Vague was born Feb. 11, 1777 in Pelynt to parents John and Mary Vague.

They had at least 5 children born in Pelynt: Mary in April 1804, John in June 1806, Henry in June 1809, Rachael in Nov. 1812 and John in June 1815. The last record in 1815 lists John Sr. as a blacksmith living in Barcelona. ( Their first son John died in Jan. 1811 at the age of 4. http://www.cornwall-opc-database.org/search-database/more-info/?t=burials&id=2715544)

In 1841 he is listed as a farmer living in Barcelona, Pelynt with his wife Anne, their daughter Mary age 35 and their son John age 25. Listed as help are Samuel Vague age 15 and Elizabeth Jago age 25. WIlliam Dingle age 25, his wife Rachel (must be John and Anne's daughter) age 25 and their daughter Rachel age 1 live in the house next door.

In 1851 they are still at Barcelona but the registration district has changed from Lanlivery to Liskeard. John is listed as a blacksmith master with 2 helpers--one is his son John age 37 and the other is Jonathan Cobblestone. Their daughter Mary age 45 is living with them --she is listed as infirm. Their granddaughter Ann Dingle age 8 is also living with them.

Anne's death was registered Apr-May-Jun of 1860 in Liskeard.

In 1861 John had moved to a different house but still in Liskeard. He is listed as John Jagoe, a widow, farmer of 90 acres with 1 hired help. His daughter Rachel Dingle, her husband William Dingle and their 5 children live with him. Living next door is Anne Vague age 57 (born 1804) and her 2 sons farming 140 acres. There is no mention of his daughter Mary Jago so she may have died.

John's death is registered Oct/Nov/Dec 1866 in Liskeard--he was 87.
