Dona, are you still researching the Trathen family. I was for awhile and had to let it go due to illness. Wasn't I in touch with you before? Lost my papers in a flood. Sue Trathen-Harper

Thanks for the information. My Trathens came from Hayle in Cornwall and I cannot see a William B of around the dates you mentioned so presumably a different branch of the family

Re: Trathens

VogelDescendant — 2010-04-29 17:13:49Z

So far I have not discovered that connection am sorry... If I do I will indeed remember you and contact you, good luck... Trathen is as common as Smith or Brown here in the States.

Sincerely,
Robin

I am looking for any information on Christopher Trathen prior to his marriage to Margaret Penprase in 1825 in Phillack, Cornwall. He died in 1840 in a mining accident aged 39, so dob should be abt 1801 but I can find no record. Have a suspicion he may have been born in Ireland ?

It's been a while since you've posted your message but since I've just had information that my ancestors stopped at Wales from Cornwall before moving to Nenthead, Cumberland, I thought I'd give this a try. Richard Trathan, born 1724, moved to Nenthead with some of his family. His parents were Jacob and Eleanor.

I don't think we ever connected as I believe you were moving your office the last time you responded. My ggrandfather was William Trathen (b. 1835 in St. Blazey, Cornwall; d. 1903 in Central City, Colorado) whose sister Susanna (b. 1853) married a Rowe. That is all of the information I have on his siblings.

My gg grandmother is suppose to be Elizabeth Trathen but some in the family think it is Elizabeth Trotter. Her married name would be Warren. She is from England and died in Utah.
The cemetery has her listed as a Trathen. She had a daughter named Mary Ann Warren that married a Bullock. They lived in Utah. I think they came to the USA around 1890. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.

Just to let you all know that the name Trathen comes from the Cornish language word trethen meaning a small beach or sand bar possibly a causeway of sand above low water.

Kernow (Cornwall) is the country of origin of the whole Trathen diaspora so be proud! (We're also referred to as 'the sand people!!)

I've discovered that my cousin Victoria Anderson married a Thomas Trathen about 1920. They lived at Sparta Ny through at least the 1920s and had children: Victoria H., John T., George J.

Re: Trathen

2002-01-13 15:53:31Z

Good Morning, I am sure there is a connection there were Trathen children who went westward back in the late 1800's that are of the same family, and of course the families eventually lost contact... My Uncle Bill See who is grandson to Elizabeth Ann Trathen, daughter of Thomas B. [brother to William] & Sara "Jane" Marks Trathen still resides in Roseburg, OR... If you would like email me and we can correspond that way...

The information I had previously was later verified on Ancestry.com thru the World Tree Viewer - Individual Views and Pedigree Views. The siblings of my William Trathen were: Elizabeth Jane Trathen, Eleanor Trathen, Jacob Trathen, Mary Ann Trathen, and Susanna(h) Trathen. I had a Thomas born in 1957 but could find no trace of him in my research. Perhaps he died at a young age. We could have a link somewhere. I lived in Port Orford, Oregon, in the late 40's and 50's, not far from Myrtle Creek - Coquille was our closest "big" town. My father (99) lives in Florence, OR.

Update - First name Jean

2002-01-13 08:26:26Z

I have just learned from a cousin that the first name of Mrs. Stewart Trathen was Jean. Jean Severson (a.k.a. Jeanette Loff, a silent film movie star) was born on Oct. 6, 1906 in Hudson, WI & passed away Aug. 4, 1942 in Los Angeles, CA of ammonia poisoning. I am now looking for the info of the Date of the marriage of Stewart Trathen & Jean Severson plus any info about Stewart such as Date & Place of Birth, etc. Also, any info about a possible divorce between Stewart & Jean.

My records (undocumented) that William Trathen (born 1835 in St. Blazey, Cornwall, died 1903 in Central City, CO (this I know for sure))had a sister Susanna (Rowe), born 1853. I show that his parents were Jacob Trathen (born 1809 Redruth Cornwall, died 1858 St. Blazey, Cornwall) was married to Jane Nichols (born 1811-13? Luxwlyan, Cornwall, died 1896 in Central City, CO (she had gone to Colorado to care for her 3 grandaughters as my ggrandfather William Trathen was widowed in 1869. Jacob Trathen's parents were Jacob Trathen (b. 1775) and Ellinor Dawe (b. 1781) - no death date on either one. Jane Nichol's parents were William Nichols (born c.1776) and Grace Martyn (b. 1780 and died 1854 in Luxwlyan, Cornwall). Jacob Trathen's parents were John Trathen (b. 1749) and Patience Knight (no info). Ellinor Dawe's parents were Peter Dawe and Mary Williams - only info on them was that they were married in 1780. William Trathen struck it rich in Colorado; however, he disowned my grandmother when she married my grandfather Chris Stevens (also from Cornwall). If you have additional information or corrections to what I have, I would really appreciate it. I live in Pennsylvania but was originally from Oregon.
