- of Payhem, Devon, England or of Payhembury
He was a tanner.
- (Research):November 19th, 1792, a lease was granted by the feoffees, to
Henry Venn, of Payhembury, in the County of Devon, tanner, in
consideration of a fine of ?26 5s., for a term of 99 years, if Charlotte,
daughter of the said Henry Venn, aged about twelve years, should so
long live, the said term to commence immediately on the decease of
Peter Carthew, the elder, and Mary, daughter of the said Henry
Wenn, paying a clear yearly rent of ?6. The premises were described
in this lease, in nearly the same terms as the foregoing one, with the
addition that the premises were bounded on the south by lands late of
George Moffield, but now of Mary Worth, widow; and on the north
by lands late of William Colman, Esq., but now of Joseph Carter, and
late in the possession of Thomas Bidgood.
1820 -
The property charged with this annuity consists of a house and a few acres of land at Payhembury, now in the possession of Mr. Henry Cook Venn. It formerly belonged to two brothers, of the name of Patch, ??Son of the Rev and Mary?
The Missionary Secretariat of Henry Venn; Prebendary of St. Paul's, and Honorary Secretary of the Church Missionary ... Mr. Venn inclined to the belief that William Venn was a son of a certain Richard Venn of Payhembury, in Devonshire, ...This would link the more prominent Henry Venns to 'our' Henry.
I have found two Henry Venns who were baptised in Payhemburyb ut these would make 'our' Henry 102 at death.:
Henry, the son of Edward Venn:
- born 1704 (Nov 6), baptised 1704 (Nov 27)
Henry, the son of John Venn of Haskins:
- born 1704/5 (Jan 12), baptised 1704/5 (Feb 7)
