I am looking for any information on Joshua Eva he was ch 17 Mar 1837 to Joshua Eva and Loveday Oliver - Helston. I have information on Loveday but unable as yet to find more on Joshua SNR. Joshua JNR in the 1841 census was living in Kenwyn at the age of 4 with a John Nortan 30 a butcher. (I have found no sign of his parents though his grandparents on his mothers side were still alive). Joshua married Ellen Unknown and they had 10 children that I am aware of. Joshua was a butcher. Any information this Eva family would be appreciated.

Hi there. I stumbled across your message regarding the Eva family of Helston. They are in my family tree:
Joshua Eva 1836, born in Helston was my Great Great Great Grandfather. His mother was, so I am informed, Loveday Oliver and there was also a sister Elizabeth it would appear.
Joshua Eva married Ellen Penhaligon in Truro, where he had been sent to live at the age of 4 with a John "North" or at least that is what the original document looks like to me.
The marriage took place on 14th February 1857. They had several children one of whome was my Great Great Grandmother Loveday Eva who married Joseph Hick in Truro.
I only wish that I had seen your message before. My Tree is Public I think so you can view it.
Please reply and let me know how your research led you to the Eva's in Helston.

Hello there,
I have just found out that my grandfather was Cecil John Eva born in Bulawayo Rhodesia.
I remember my grandmother saying the family came from Cornwell in the UK. My grandfather was born in Rhodesia 17.4.1897. I have no further information and wondered if anyone could help?

Hi, my Father's step-sister's mum was 'Minnie' Eva, sister to Loveday who had a daughter called Leslie. In my family photos thera are several Eva s, Beattie, Minnie, Joshua, Edgar Janie, Loveday, Joshua and wife, I have no idea wher some of the photos came from as they are copies, so you may well have seen them? If your tree is public I'd love to see it but cannot see it on the web? Look forward to hearing from you. martin Ripper.
