CONSTABLE TO BILLING OUTLINE Major revision February 2014. We have used IGI, Quaker, Cornwall OPC and CFHS records, A John CONSTABLE is mentioned in documents for the period 1529-32 in connection with a tenement and land called ‘Bake’ in Pelynt, (including several Quaker families) plus information from over a dozen wills provided by Cornwall Cornwall, about 10 miles east of Golant. (C 1 /607/16) http://www.ardrosshouse.com/family.htm Archives. There are still question marks and unplaced entries. There is another reference re a messuage and land in Eddyns Down; but so far I have not been able to identify this place. (C 1 /650/23) Corrections and additional information gratefully received! Is the John CONSTABLE buried at Golant on July 30th 1600 a son of this Pelynt family? And is this John CONSTABLE, buried in 1600, the father of the Henry and John who both married at Golant around 1567-8? In the 1569 Cornwall Muster Roll the only two CONSTABLE entries are in Golant: Harry and John, presumably born c. 1540s - both good archers. Notice that Henry and John both in their turn named their first child John. Note on the HOCKEN family: And who’s is ‘Amey’ CONSTABLE buried there on April 30th 1596? (Cornwall opc) Dorothy and Ann HOCKEN were daughters of Thomas HOCKEN of St Breward. Dorothy was chr. there (The first marriage entry in the register) on Nov. 22nd 1570.

Beroul's romance belongs to the second half of the twel fth century when literacy was rare o'Jtside clerical circles and story-telling for secular entertainment was largely in the hands of minstrels.

One day in mid October I saw a few Swallows flying over the village on their way to Africa. The following day I noticed a Black Redstart, a winter visitor to our coast. I now look forward to the possibility of a Blackcap or a tiny Firecrest in the garden or wintering thrushes in hedgerows. The Blackcaps that stay for winter are not the same birds that breed in our woodlands. The latter have moved south whereas the newcomers are a separate population that will have bred further east on the continent. A series of mild winters has enabled the Blackcaps to survive here instead of flying south and they have passed on the habit to later generations. They will stay until March when they begin to sing and become aggressive towards other birds at feeders. This takes me on to a sad situation that I noticed in September. Trichomonosis is a deadly disease that affects the digestive system of some birds and I saw the symptoms among Goldfinches. They become lethargic, cannot feed successfully and soon starve.

    Quethiock SEN Information Report 2019

    Quethiock Primary School Part of the St Barnabas Multi Academy Trust SEN Information Report 2021 What/who is this for? This document outlines everything you need to know about supporting SEN pupils at Quethiock. It is useful for parents, pupils and people who would like to know what we do to create unique possibilites for ALL of our pupils, including those with SEN. This document supports our whole MAT policy for SEN. What is SEN? A Special Educational Need is when a pupil finds something harder than other children that are the same age or when a pupil has a disability that might make it hard to use the resources in the school. Difficulties could be: communication, learning, emotional or physical. This means that teachers have to think carefully about what each pupil needs to succeed and progress. Some answers to questions you might have: How do my teachers know that I need extra help? If we notice that you are finding something hard, or falling behind, we talk about ways to help you. We try to make sure that what you get in the classroom helps you first, before trying anything extra. If we put anything extra in place, we may place you on a ‘record of need’, this is just a way to keep an eye on how you are doing with this extra support. What can my parents do if they think have Special Educational Needs? Talk to your teacher, SENCO (Mrs Thomas) or Head of School (Mrs Kenton). Who is responsible for me being happy and succeeding at school? We are ALL responsible! Staff try hard to talk lots about good mental health.
  • The Lees of Quethiock Cornwall Their Family History from Ancient Times

    The Lees of Quethiock Cornwall Their Family History from Ancient Times

    THE LEES OF QUETHIOCK CORNWALL THEIR FAMILY HISTORY FROM ANCIENT TIMES "Brave men have lived before Agamemnon, lots of them. But on all of them - eternal night lies heavy, for they left no records behind. (`ODES` Horace 65-8BC) This is the story of those who did This is the story of my ancestors, the Lee family, who have left records behind and from which the line can be traced from Alexander and Thomas born 1994 and 1990 respectively, back to John of Legh, alive in 1433, and Richard de Leye, alive in 1327. John and Richard lived at, and took their surname from Legh, a pre-Norman settlement in Cornwall recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086. Legh is situated in the present parish of Quethiock, some 5 miles west of the River Tamar and 5 miles east of Liskeard, just in the southeast corner of Cornwall. To uncover the history took ten and more years of research. So what stimulated me to commence? In 1986 I watched a television programme on early portraiture. It was explained that during the time of the Roman Empire (146BC-410AD) it was fashionable to have a statue carved of oneself together with ones father and grandfather. To illustrate this a statue from the 1st century AD was shown; I was astounded to note that it bore a likeness to my family and in particular to my brother, David Henry Lee. I immediately commented on this to my wife, Brenda, who replied `No, it is more like you`. From that moment the question lay in my mind `I look like a Roman from 2000 years ago; I have the surname of Lee which is derived from a Saxon-German word meaning pasture; my father`s family were known to have come from Cornwall and so presumably I have West Welsh Celtic blood; my mother claimed her family came from Devon and I was born in Devonport on the borders of Devon and Cornwall; so who am I? Cornwall over the millenniums had been invaded by 6 or so groups of different people; Ancient British (7000BC), Celts (700BC-63AD), Danes (800AD), Romans (63-401AD), Saxons (447-1066AD), Normans (1066).

Please note that the strategic growth for the settlement of St Blazey/Par has been incorporated in the growth factors analysis for St Austell as they have been explored together as part of the preparation of the regeneration plan. Each ‘Profile’ is split into three sections: Policy Objectives, Infrastructure & Environmental Considerations and Socio-Economic Considerations. Summaries have been provided to indicate what the key facts might mean in terms of the need for growth – and symbols have been used as follows to give a quick overview: Supports the case for future No conclusion reached/ Suggests concern over growth neutral factor/further future growth evidence required St Blazey, Fowey & Lostwithiel Overview: The St Blazey, Fowey & Lostwithiel Community Network Area contains 11 parishes and a range of settlements. St Blazey/Par, Fowey and Lostwithiel are the key settlements within this area, and acts as the local service centres to the smaller settlements surrounding them. Larger villages in the area include Tywardreath and Luxulyan. Most of the CNA is an area of 'conservative' farming landscapes, dominated by anciently enclosed land, medieval field systems, scattered settlements with just a few larger villages, and several large, old-established estates with houses and parks (Boconnoc, Menabilly, and Lanhydrock) 1.
