 Includes NotesNotes for Francis JOSLIN:
Letter from Clare Joslin states that Francis was baptised 9/8/1818 living
first at Cheldons Farm, Wembworthy and later at Langridge Farm,
Atherington. 1851 Census shows him 'living in' in household of James
Pickard, farmer, in Ashreigny. He is classed as servant, married, male 33
Farm Labourer. He appears to be living apart from his wife who appears to
be living with her father. Marjorie Heywood also tells me that he lived
at Great Woolstone, Bishops Tawton.
Charles Cole writes :- A labourer in 1851. A farmer of Langridge.
Atherington 1860/66 - the farm remained in the family until 1951 but
Francis had moved to the 160 acre farm "Great Woolstone", Bishops Tawton
by 1881. He was still there in 1891. He had retired by 1897 and was still
living in Bishops Tawton. All the Joslins were very strict Wesleyans and
later Baptists. At some time Francis quarelled seriously with his brother
William and their families never spoke to each other again. This feud
extended to the churchyard at Atherington where William's family are
buried at the front of the church and all have "Wanhills" on their stones
and Francis' family are buried at the bvack of the chuch with
"Langridge" on their stones!
