JAMES
Conie born abt 1807 in Wycombe or Princes Risborough. Served in 33rd Regiment of Foot.
Married Mary Gardner of Weedon 24th December 1833 at Northampton St Giles but listed as James Correy. One of the witnesses was given as Henry Coney. Later occupation as a tailor. Died in Brook
St Workhouse, Lambeth 28th August 1892.
Unfortunately the 1841 census for Weedon Bec has been lost/destroyed so we have no way of knowing the family whereabouts for this year.
Census 1851 as James Canil at 58 West End Court, Weedon Bec with family
Census 1861 as James Cowie at 3 Otto St, Newington with most of family but not Mary
Census 1871 as James Coile at 41 ..... Lambeth with Mary
Census 1881 as James Corrie at 39 Delverton Rd, Newington
Census 1891 as James Conic at Lambeth Workhouse as pauper
His parents were possibly James Coney/Conie who married Catherine Palmer 22nd March 1807 at Piccadilly St James, London. There is evidence of a daughter Catherine Conie born 14th April and baptised 17th May 1807 at St John the Baptist upon Walbrook but otherwise no direct link to the James above. Catherine married John North 29th October 1826 at St John the Evangelist, Westminster with Ann Gardiner as witness. Is she possibly related to Mary??
Alternatively there is a record of Sarah Coney (widow) marrying George MacDonald in High Wycombe in June 1815 - could she have been James' mother.
There is evidence of several James who could be related - James Coney born 30th Sept 1768 in Westminster; James Coney b 1786 d 1813 at St John the Evangelist; James Coney b1779 d 1831 St Andrews, Holborn; James Conie resident in Battersea 1787 and 1795 and James Conie whose will was published in Leicester in 1823
