Hi, I am looking for birth details of Richard Squance born abt 1854/5 in sheepwash. I have failed completely to find any reference to his early life in Devon. He moved to. swansea in 1870s and married Martha Lake to work in the copper works. I have his marriage cert. which lists his father's name as William occupation labourer. His life in Swansea is well documented so it is his early life that I would like to research.
Also, what is the origin of the Squance surname, google has thrown up nothing.
Many thanks
Lesley
