SHF Roe still at Zennor in 1893:

““” Much of the £1,500 cost was met by Admiral John Borlase of Penzance (brother of the previous Vicar, Reverend William Borlase) ““”

A puzzling factoid, possibly wrong, on Ancestry.com - but note SHF Roe’s probate:

https://www.ancestry.co.uk/search/categories/42/?name=Mabel_Grieve&name_x=s&spouse=Henry_Ogle ““” Winifred Mabel Grieve from tree Lowe Family Tree No publicly available LifeStory events Record information. Spouse Samuel Henry Farwell Roe (1856-year) ““”

Alice Jane Roe (nee Braginton) probably died in 1929

Deaths Dec 1929 (>99%) Roe Alice J 84 Liskeard 5c 44

Died 28 October, left money to Husband and Emmeline. £6539.

Probate for a reverend Samuel Henry Farwell Roe:

““” ROE the reverend Samuel Henry Farwell of 5 Hillsborough-terrace Ilfracombe Devonshire died 19 March 1943 Probate Llandudno 5 August to Isabel Henriette Bertha Roe spinster and Winifred Mabel Grieve widow. Effects £11650 7s. 10d. ““”

The probate is a bit mysterious. If he is the same SHF Roe, surely he would be required to leave his effects to his wife above, Jane Roe.

According to [Kelly’s Directory of Devon & Cornwall, 1902. Part 2: Cornwall, p 239 - 240 Revd Samuel Henry Farwell Roe had been at St Michael Penkivel since 1900:

““” The living is a rectory, net yearly value £102, with 50 acres of glebe and residence, in the gift of Viscount Falmouth, and held since 1900 by the Rev. Samuel Henry Farwell Roe, who is also rector (by dispensation) of Lamorran with Merther. ““”
