He apparently exists in the 1861 census according to this which is a transcript of the FMP transcription, but I can't find him in the COCP pages! Name: Joseph Treneary Event Type: Census Event Date: 1861 Gender: Male Age: 70 Relationship to Head of Household: Head Birthplace: ..., Cornwall Schedule Type: Household Registration District: Truro Sub-District: 4 St Clement Ecclesiastical Parish: Parish: St Mary Residence County: Cornwall (Note: The COCP entry for ED 14 to 16 of St Clement which presumably has Joseph on it, isn't there. A copy of St Columb Minor is there and presumably overwrote the St Clement entry by accident! I have informed them) Update: Link provided by the COCP and I now have the details - 22,Good Wives Lane Private,1,Joseph Treneery,Head,M,70,,Cordwainer,Newlyn Cornwall,, ,,,Sarah Treneery,Wife,M,,68,,Helston Cornwall,, RG9/1558 ED 15 Folio 55 Page 3 Truro, St Marys district

Two mentions of a Joseph Trenerry from Truro in the West Briton and Cornwall Advertsier dated Friday 8th January 1858 which seem most likely to be this Joseph (based on age, his occupation as a cordwainer for the boot theft and the lack of other Joseph Trenerrys in Truro!) Firstly - HENRY DAY, 30 plumber, was charged with stealing, at Tregothnan, two pieces of lead and one piece of iron pipe, the property of the Right Honourable EVELYN, Viscount Falmouth. Mr. CHILDS conducted the prosecution; the prisoner was defended by Mr. SHILSON. Evidence in the case was given by JOHN MAC LEAN, plumber and brazier, of Truro (the prisoner's employer at the time of the felony); WILLIAM HENRY RANDALL, an apprentice to Mr. Mac Lean; WILLIAM JOSEPH NASH, superintendent of police at Truro; WILLIAM WOOLCOCK, serjeant of police at Truro; HENRY BAKER, shoemaker, who had been in custody on a charge of feloniously received lead and iron from the prisoner, but was now admitted as Queen's evidence against him; and HENRY IVEY, watchmaker and whitesmith of Truro. Evidence in favour of prisoner's previous character, from boyhood, was given by WILLIAM PLYMING of Truro, formerly a contractor for the conveyance of prisoners; and it was stated that JOSEPH TRENERRY of Truro had waited until a late hour of the day for the purpose of giving similar testimony. Verdict, Guilty. There was another indictment against the prisoner charging him with stealing lead, the property of Mr. Mac Lean; but on this indictment no evidence was offered. and secondly, and more interestingly as it is Joseph himself who makes the charge - WILLIAM DAVEY, 32 labourer, was charged with stealing a pair of boots, the property of JOSEPH TRENERRY, at Redruth, on the 30th of October last. Mr. CORNISH prosecuted. Prosecutor lives at Truro, and is in the habit of attending Redruth market, and on the day in question his wife was there with a standing. The prisoner was seen loitering about the standing, and subsequently came and stood close by. Prosecutor's wife asked him if he wanted a pair of boots, but he made no reply. He left, and shortly after she discovered that a pair of boots, which were on the end of the standing near where the prisoner was, had been taken away. He was apprehended by Sergeant COOMB[S ?] of the county constabulary, with the boots on his feet. Prisoner in defence said he bought the boots of the prosecutor's wife, and gave 8s. 6d. for them, which she emphatically denied. Verdict Guilty. Being a cordwainer, this ties in nicely with our Joseph here.

Wondering if he is the Joseph mentioned as the father of the bastard child of Maria Tippet )see bastardy bond dated 30 Nov 1816). He would be of a suitable age and is a cordwainer. Is there a single female named Elizabeth in his family? Maybe a sister?
