Hi to everybody, my names Mick Moyle. My roots so far go back to a Stephen Moyle 1716-1792. Married to an Alice Tepet. Would love to hear from anyone familiar or related to this tree.

Ah - I meant area as in part of the country. But this forum does have some very knowledgeable people who will be able to give you some new leads I expect. As you have probably found, researching your tree does involve using many different methods of discovering things.
Are you in Cornwall yourself? If so, then the FHS in Truro, the County Records Office and the Courtenay library (at the museum) are all well worth a visit.

Sorry, no I am not in Cornwall, I live in Milton Keynes. Have you heard of Norman Moyle. He is in America and runs a Moyle family tree site. You have to become a member but there is lots of great stuff on the site with loads of tree.

Moyle ... Moyle ... that rings a bell. (Rushes off and opens family tree software.)
Janet Moyle HOSKING b.c.1826, Penzance d.March Q 1886 in St Saviour District. Married Bennett DREW, 21 August 1843 in St Leonards, Shoreditch. Bennett and Jane lived out their married life in Newington, Surrey.
Must go searching for how she got the Moyle bit into her given names.
-----------------------
Oh, and by way of introduction, I'm Geoff Drew and, being a colonial, have ancestors from sundry places. Know most about by Cornwall (DREW, HARRIS, TALLACK, BENNETT) and East Devon (DYER, WHITE, PAVER, BRIDLE) mobs, a fair bit about the Essex lot (BRIGHTWELL, DACE), something about the Wiltshire lot (TUCKER) and not very much at all about those that came out of Fermanagh (HALL).I like poetry, long walks on the beach, and poking dead things with a stick.

Best match I've seen so far, Bo Peep. I hadn't looked in St Hilary, mainly because I didn't have a clue where it was - maybe I should make a nice map of the parishes of Cornwall (or at least West Penwith). Every other Jane Hosking I've found (Penzance, Madron, Paul, etc.) didn't have the Moyle bit in it. Should send off for the marriage certificate I suppose. Looks to me a bit like young Bennet and Janet eloped to the Big Smoke.
Marriages September Quarter 1843
DREW Bennet Shoreditch 2 362
HOSKING Jane Moyle Shoreditch 2 362
Anyway, many thanks for that.
Later: Looked again at 1841 Census, Jane Hosking by Jane Hosking until I found Henry and Polly.

Henry Senior and Henry Junior both working as Smiths. Living in Market Jew Street which places them in close proximity to members of the Drew mob as Bennet was living in Marine Terrace in 1841, further reinforcing the possibility that this is indeed the correct Jane Moyle Hosking. It also raises the possibility that Bennet and Jane were some form of cousins, as Bennet's mother was Eliza HOSKING. Further support for this being the correct Jane is the name of one of her daughters, Polly Moyle DREW.Last edited by GeoffD; 28-08-2007 at 1:31 AM. Reason: Add Census info.

Thanks BoPeep. I have trouble with the fact that places that are located so close together are clearly considered to be so different. I must print out a big map with a scale on it.
