I neglected to mention in the LANYON/MARTIN/TREWHELLA thread that Matthew TREWHELLA was a brother to my 3xGt-grandfather William who married Loveday EDDY.
The TREWHELLA involved in this thread is another brother.
Martin TREWHELLA m. Sarah BLIGHT 12th August 1838 at Ludgvan
Sarah was baptised 3rd November 1816 at Ludgvan daughter of William BLIGHT and Sarah (nee VINGOE).
It is this couple of whom I wish to know more and will need to rely on help from some of our experts again.
I have nine children for William and Sarah BLIGHT but only have a little knowledge of two daughters.
Sarah, of course, is one and the other is Johanna who was baptised at Ludgvan 14th April 1822.
Johanna married James JENKIN in 1842 (I presume in Ludgvan) and I have six children for them.
Of those six I only have knowledge for one - Johanna Blight JENKIN.
USA (probably New York) c. 1868
John TREWHELLA married Johanna Blight JENKIN
They were first cousins as John's mother was Sarah BLIGHT, Johanna's sister.
Of the five children of Martin and Sarah TREWHELLA son Peter Blight died at the age of five.
Eldest son Martin married his cousin Jane TREWHELLA and remained in Cornwall and died at Lelant in 1872 aged 32.
John, as mentioned above, married Johanna JENKIN.
William married twice in the USA but I know nothing of his first wife exept that she was the mother of William's two known children.
His second wife was Mary and all I know of her is that she was, according to the US Census, born in Connecticut about 1869.
The last child of Martin and Sarah was their daughter Sarah.
Andrew NICHOLLS m. Sarah Ann TREWHELLA at Ludgvan 3rd May 1862. He was born about 1841, son of John and Mary NICHOLLS and died in Victoria, Australia in 1873.
Sarah corresponded with her siblings in America and died at Hawthorn, a suburb of Melbourne, in 1940 at the age of 99.
Again - I know nothing more of this particular NICHOLLS family and could do with some help.
I think there are enough names here to keep people interested.
I look forward to your input.
