Cornwall Ancestors

welcome to the boards David

you have to give a bit more info than that - how far back have you got - we need names and relevant dates and where in Cornwall

just took a look - there are 2,500 Trewarthan's in Cornwall on the familysearch site

Which Trewarthens?
What part of Cornwall ?
When ?
How are you connected?

I've sent a message to David asking him to return with more info

message from David

I am interested in the connection with the Samwell family, who used the Trewarthen crest, for example, on the plaque of John Samwell and ? Trewarthen in Cottisford Church dated 1505. So I am interested in any date before that and a short period after that. Very pleased to have any guidance on this.

hmm - I see Cottisford is in Oxfordshire

In the late 14th century the Prior of Ogbourne had adopted the practice of leasing Cottisford manor. Edward Metteley, who held a lease of land (fn. 66) in Cottisford as early as 1375, obtained a lease of the manor for nine years in 1391. (fn. 67) This was renewed in 1400, for the lives of himself and his wife Margaret. (fn. 68) Eton College continued the practice, and its leaseholders came to be termed lords of the manor. In 1450 the estate was leased to Robert Arden for a term of 20 years and in 1469 for 60 years to John Samwell. He was apparently Arden's brother-in-law and the bailiff of Cottisford and Fringford (where Eton also owned a small property). John Samwell died before 1505, since from that year until 1512 his son Roger paid rent to the college. Roger Samwell's widow Eleanor was the leaseholder in 1513–14, and her second husband Thomas Danvers of Banbury paid the rent from 1515 to 1521. (fn. 69) Thomas and Eleanor Danvers then quitclaimed their rights in the manor of Cottisford, and in 1522 the lease returned to the Arden family in the person of John Arden (d. 1535), grandson of Robert Arden. In 1542 the leaseholder was his son, John Arden (d. 1556), who in his turn was succeeded by his son, a third John Arden, who obtained a renewal of the lease.
