Family 2 - Baskerville-Mynors
We have a slight mystery here . . .
(Caroline Elizabeth) "Carrie", daughter of Henry Clay, was born in 1831, married Rev Walter Baskerville-Mynors (1826-99), on 3 April 1856 in Steyning, West Sussex, and died on 3 October 1922 aged 91.
But . . . what children did she have ?
1.
Her husband came from Radnor. These were born in Presteigne, Radnorshire (abstracted from the List in para 4. below) -
Arthur Clynton Q3, 1856,
Charles, Q3, 1859,
Audley, Q2, 1862,
Beatrice Eleanor Q4, 1857
2.
Or did she have - from here - a transcription from Burk's Landed Gentry
Harry Walter Baskerville Mynors b. 28 Oct 1857, d. 6 Jun 1938
Evelyn Baskerville Mynors b. 9 Dec 1860, d. 4 Dec 1915
Nigel Baskerville Mynors b. 22 Aug 1862, d. 12 Jun 1880
Reverend Aubrey Baskerville Mynors b. 13 Apr 1865, d. 11 Apr 1937

Arthur Baskerville Mynors " 3 Grandson Born Langstone.

The 1871 Census shows them at Llanwarne, Herefordshire:-
Walter B Mynors birth:1827 Old Radnor, Radnorshire
Caroline E Mynors
Children:
Evelyn B Mynors,
Nigel B Mynors,
Aubrey B Mynors
The eldest (whatever his name) would probably have been at boarding school.
Tenyears later, in 1881, Harry, now 23, is at Oxford - but curiously, so is his mother !
Harry W B Mynors, birth:1858, Llanwarne, Herefordshire,
residence: Oxford St Giles,
other: Caroline E Mynors,
5.
In the 1911 Census, at that address, it is now Harry (married) who is the Head of the household, and his mother is there too :-
Harry Walter Baskerville Mynors, Head, b:1858 Llanwarne, Herefordshire
residence:1911 Llanwarne, Herefordshire
mother:Caroline Elizabeth Mynors
spouse:Edith Katharine Mynors

There is no "Harry" nor "Henry"
There is no "Evelyn" - but there is an un-named female.
There is no "Nigel" - but there is an un-named male.
The four dates given in Para 2. above match the dates of the four births in Ross, which is Ross-on-Wye, in Herefordshire..
The Census recorded an "Arthur", who - it seems - was actually named Charles, but was called Harry !
