George Silvanus Budge (B.l.C) (1824-1903) came to be married under most unusual circumstances as the following extract from the “Royal Cornwall Gazette” of Friday 18”‘ June 1852 demonstates:-
"An elopement about 2 o'clock on Sunday morning the 6th instant. Miss Elizabeth Trestain daughter of Mr. James Trestain of Tregenna in the parish of St Veep aged 21 eloped with a man named Budge aged 33. Theirs banns had been published at Christmas and the day fixed and every preparation made for their marriage but the young man did not keep his appointment and in fact did not again make his appearance till the beginning of May. The young ladies friends it appears had originally objected to the match and his non appearance at the time appointed for the marriage strengthened their objections. But the young lady herself would appear to have been more forgiving. On Saturday night the 5th instant Mr. Budge and his brother came to Tregenna in a gig stating that they came in a friendly way and for the last time and it being late and the weather bad they requested leave to remain for the night which was granted. About 2 o'clock in the morning someone in the house heard a noise as of a door and it is supposed that at that time the lady and her lover and his brother left the house: for on the family rising it was discovered they had gone and they have not been heard of, the family are all in great trouble."
The couple headed for Devonport, Devon, checked into a beerhouse at 51 Cornwall Street, Devonport, and started making arrangements for their marriage.
