Census
Have found a possible census entry for William and Eliza Grigg (1861).
Information from Cornwall Family Finders (www.cornwall-online.co.uk/cornwall-family-finders):
1841 Census William Grigg. Shows William Grigg with a given age of 15 years working as a Male Servant for James Varcoe at Pensrose, St. Dennis. The term 'servant' is not what we might think of it today. A more suitable job description would be farm labourer or general household or farm helping hand.
1841 Census Eliza Snell. Shows Eliza Snell with a given age of 20 years living at Gothers, St. Dennis and working as a Female Servant, in the household of John Varcoe.
From these two census pages it is possible to get an idea of just how many Varcoe and Grigg families there were in what is just about one square mile of Cornwall at this time.
From LDS Website: Possible birth for William Grigg of 1821 in Saint Dennis, Cornwall. Mother Phillipa Bullock. Note that the census has William Grigg being born in Ireland (1861).
