    Farmer 
    • With his parents, his father also recorded as a farmer but his brother as an ag lab. Possibly the family farm wasn't large enough to provide work for all, and his brother had to work for a larger farmer.

    • From Cornwall OPC database
      Shows John as aged 58 and resident at Latchley.
      Given the place of death I did wonder if I had the right John, though didn't know of another b c 1813. However, the 1881 census not only shows his last wife as a widow, but also a daughter born about 1872 as born in Latchley, so I'm sure the death was of this John.
