ELFORD It Is Thought That the Elford Family Gave Their Name to Yelverton ELFORD It is thought that the Elford family gave their name to Yelverton (Elford’s Town), near Plymouth but that they originated in the village of Elford in Staffordshire.1 The name derives from either Ella’s Ford or the elder tree ford.2 A Robert Elford was the sheriff of Cornwall in the early fourteenth century.3 The main concentration of the name is in southwest Devon.4 The earliest ancestors in this line lived in the reign of Elizabeth I. 11x great grandfather William Elford married Joan Cudlipe on the 2nd of September 1583 In Mary Tavy, Devon.5 Mary Tavy is a small rural parish in south west Devon, The Origin of the Surname Elford on the edge of Dartmoor. It is three and a half miles north of the market town of Tavistock and eighteen miles north of the port of Plymouth. The focus of the surname Cudlipe is in mid and south west Devon.6 The hamlet of Cudlippstown in Peter Tavy may have been named for the family, or it might refer to a ‘leap over a stream’. A likely origin of the name is as a nickname for one who had a cut or cleft lip.7 The Origin of the Surname Cudlipp William and Joan had six children baptised in Mary Tavy: 10x great grandfather Peter Extract from a Parish Map Elford on the 29th of June 1584; Paschovia ©Devon Family History Society on the 5th of May 1586; Richard on the 26th 1 Laura Elford The Elfords: the story of an ancient family Privately Published (1972-1976). 2 Basil Cottle The Penguin Dictionary of Surnames Penguin 2nd edition 1978. 3 Laura Elford The Elfords: the story of an ancient family Privately Published (1972-1976). 4 The British C19th Surname Atlas Archer Software (2003). 5 Marriage register of St. Mary’s, Mary Tavy, Devon via Devon Family History Society www.devonfhs.org.uk. 6 The British C19th Surname Atlas Archer Software (2003). 7 Basil Cottle The Penguin Dictionary of Surnames Penguin 2nd edition 1978. of July 1587; Matthew in November 1588, the year of the Spanish Armada, in which nearby Plymouth played a significant part; Mary on the 16th of September 1591 and Gregory in July 1593,8 he was buried on the 12th of August in the same year.9 Six more children of a William Elford (no mother named) were baptised in Mary Tavy between 1566 and 1581.10 This suggests that William may have been married previously. There is a possible marriage in nearby Whitchurch in 1567 to Aliza Hooy,11 although the first of these children was baptised in the year before the Whitchurch marriage. No burial has been found for Aliza. No burial has been found for Joan either but William was buried at Mary Tavy on the 4th of May 1597.12 10x great grandfather Peter Elford married Jane Bowden at Mary Tavy in 1606, the precise date is illegible.13 Bowden is predominantly a Devon surname. The only other concentration is in Lancashire.14 There are several places called Bowden in the country; it means curved hill.15 Eight children were baptised in Mary Tavy: William in June 1607; Jane on the 14th of September 1608; Philip on the 12th of October 1609; Joanna on the 3rd of June 1612, Mary on the 2nd of April 1615, Wilmot on the 7th of December 1617; Elizabeth on the 19th of August 1620 and 9x great grandfather Peter Elford on the The Origin of the Surname th 16 27 of March 1622/3. Bowden Interestingly, a Joanna Elford ‘of Devon’ was indicted for witchcraft in 1671. She was accused ‘laming and pining (pinning) Alice Paynter. She was found not guilty.17 There is an Alice Reddy or Poynter who was baptised in Tavistock in 1654 and buried there in 167518. Unfortunately, there is no way of knowing whether the suspected witch was indeed a relative. Jane Elford was buried on the 7th of June 1644 and her husband, Peter, on the 11th of August 1650, both in Mary Tavy. 19 9x great grandfather Peter Elford married Katherine Wills in Mary Tavy on the 13th of October 1646.20 The country would have been reeling from the Civil War, in which it is believed about 12,000 men from Devon lost their lives. Wills is a patronymic surname, meaning the son of William. It is another surname with a south Devon focus.21 8 Baptism register of St. Mary’s, Mary Tavy, Devon via Devon Family History Society www.devonfhs.org.uk. 9 Burial register of St. Mary’s, Mary Tavy, Devon via Devon Family History Society www.devonfhs.org.uk. 10 Baptism register of St. Mary’s, Mary Tavy, Devon via Devon Family History Society www.devonfhs.org.uk. 11 Marriage register of St, Andrew’s, Whitchurch, Devon via www.findmypast.co.uk. 12 Burial register of St. Mary’s, Mary Tavy, Devon via Devon Family History Society www.devonfhs.org.uk. 13 Marriage register of St. Mary’s, Mary Tavy, Devon via Devon Family History Society www.devonfhs.org.uk. 14 The British C19th Surname Atlas Archer Software (2003). 15 P.

    Peter Tavy September 2019 This settlement profile has been prepared by Dartmoor National Park Authority to provide an overview of key information and issues for the settlement. It has been prepared in consultation with Parish/Town Councils and will be updated as necessary. Settlement Profile: Peter Tavy 1 Introduction Lying on the western borders of Dartmoor, 3 miles northeast of Tavistock, Peter Tavy is a village with a clear nucleus but which spreads to the south and east. The village has a history of mining, and retains a strong agricultural character. Th mills that exploited the power of the Colly Brook that passes through the centre of the settlement are important features. The Methodist Chapel and school were important additions to the village in the 19th century and 20th century building is scattered around the village, particularly in the south. The village progressively lost its range of services and facilities over the years. There is, however, an attractive inn, a church founded in Norman times, and a village hall. It is notable that the village has retained a working farm at its centre.

  • Tavistock Ramblers
    Tavistock Ramblers Summer 2020 Advert Cotswold Outdoor Summer 2020 Walks Programme Reflections From The Chair ne way of remembering which way to move the hour hand when the clocks Ochange is to say “Spring Forward, Fall Back”. Well spring is upon us, and despite the gloomy weather we have had of late, we hope this programme will inspire you to spring forward with the optimism of more spring-like weather. It has been established that walking can increase muscle tone, boost metabolism, ease stress, raise energy levels, improve sleep and could help with weight loss. That is provided a good day out walking doesn't give you too good an appetite. Calories you may have lost through going up hill, down dale, negotiating mud, jumping streams, clambering stiles etc (all part of a Tavi Rambler’s day out) have often been promptly re-established by the not uncommon cream tea or gooey cake afterwards. That, too, has its positive points (not necessarily the calorie intake) in that it is where the social side of walking with a group kicks in: friendships are formed, relationships even, some who have arrived with problems have derived support through friendship and consistency. This tends to be a further by-product of walking, indeed it is often the case with a lot of shared interest groups, particularly so in walking’s case where the group could well have puffed up hill, slithered down through mud, braved whatever the weather throws at us (character building I admit, but not untypical). So with this spring programme, spring into life, put a spring in your heels and get out there.
