Biography

Flag of Cornwall (St Piran's Cross, pre-1838)
Roger (Rawling Lean) Lean was born in Cornwall, England.

Roger Lean was born about 1825. He was the son of labourer, John Lean and Mary Rolling. Roger was baptised on 15th May 1825 in Mevagissey, Cornwall, England. [1] [2]

In 1844, Roger married Susannah Lean. The marriage was registered in Truro, Cornwall. [3]

In 1851, Roger and his wife were living in St Michael Carhayes, Cornwall. The couple had three daughters. Roger was a 25-year-old agricultural labourer. [4]

In 1871, Roger and his wife were living in Kea, Cornwall. In the household were five children. Roger was a 45-year-old farm labourer. [5]

In 1881, Roger and his wife were residing in St Feock, Cornwall. Also in the house was their 16-year-old-son, Henry. [6]

In 1891, Roger was 65-years-old. He and his wife were still residing in the same town. [7]

Roger passed away in 23rd August 1893. His death was registered in Truro, Cornwall. He was 69-years-old. [8] Roger was buried on 27th August 1893 in Feock, Cornwall. [9]

Research Note

Roger's last name was Lean. Rawling-Lean is a reference to his parents. If anything, Rawling or Rolling may have referred to a middle name, but it has been added over the years. His wife's maiden surname was Lean also. This is not a mistake. Birth registrations for children back this up - as does the marriage (check the Free BMD website for 1844 and it will show both entries).
