William Worth Hender and Elizabeth Tresize/Trezise Family
As detailed above, William Worth Hender is the son of Elizabeth Rowe and William Hender, watch and clockmaker
of Callington, who in turn was the son of Thomas Hender and Sarah Adams of Altarnun. William does not appear at
home in Venterdon on the 1841 Census with his parents as he is at perhaps a cousin's household, Richard Garland, at
Coads Green, North Hill learning his future trade as an Apprentice Saddler. There with him, which suggests the family
relationships from one of the Peter family marriages with Garland, is Uncle-in-law Samuel Peter at age 55+, a confirmed
bachelor.
William is likely right at age 20 even though up to age 24 would be rounded down to 20 by the 1841 Census rule of thumb of
recording adult ages (age 15 and older). Because the casual genealogist does not take the time to sort through the
'four' Hender and Peter family marriages which occur in the family of Thomas Hender and Sarah Adams
adequately, including other such related family marriages of that Hender family and the two involved Peter families, the
finer details often slip through their fingers. Some attempt to make this William Hender the son of Thomas Hender and
Jenney Peter, but that William Hender whose baptism was 6 April 1822, was dead and buried at age 2 month on 11 May 1822.
The presence of Uncle Samuel Peter with William [Worth] Hender ought to have been the hint that tied William to being
possibly NOT the son of Thomas Hender and his wife Jenny, theirs was the one Peter-Hender marriage that was NOT of the
family of Richard Peter and Elizabeth Turner. John Hender, who married as a second marriage to Jenny (1798) Garland nee
Peter as her second marriage had no children by Jenny at their elderly ages. The only younger William Hender this could
have been is William Worth Hender son of John Hender's and Thomas Hender's other brother William Hender the watch and
clockmaker of Callington. Understand? If not study the two Peter families and the one Hender family, their marriages and
family relationships until you do or just take my word for it. I know. The life records of William Worth Hender are further
exhibited hereafter which confirms that he did become the William [Worth] Hender, Saddler, which other all to often
confuse into being someone else. I'll start by giving his simple one child pedigree below and then I'll further begin
with the clipping hereafter shown of the marriage between him and Elizabeth Tresize of Devon as the family's further
details and documentation is also given below (Its Genealogy by the numbers, dot to dot, and ass-u-mptions not made but
deductions solidified from the facts of the matter).

The telling item which clearly identifies this William Hender as William Worth Hender is the fact that his
father is named as William Hender, Clockmaker. It seems on such records the 'middle' given names are often
not included. On the marriage record entry for Philip Trout Hender, he also is but recorded by name as
Philip Hender. So it is not surprising that his uncle's marriage record also does not have the middle name.
For a time, after his father's death in 1848, William Worth Hender and family lived at the residence in
Venterdon for it had been left to William Worth Hender and his brother Thomas Rowe Hender. Thomas Rowe
Hender had previously vacated to live at East Looe, the home town of his wife Mary Aina Trout who he
married in 1844.
By the time of his death, William Worth Hender had located at Callington.

Though Richard Olver is said to be of
St Martin, Looe on the marriage entry,
on all census records his place of birth
is named as Morval. It is therefore
considered that at the time of the
marriage Richard had mover to East
Looe and St Martin Parish as that is
also where his residence is at on the
census records as well.
