BURIAL: Information from Sharon Renfrey srenfrey@westnet.net.au.

NOTE: Information from William J. Curnow Jr.; According to the Trevaskis family history (1905), Ann and her husband John made their home on Blowing House Hill in the village of Lowerquarter "in one of the finest Tin Plant Industries in the west of Cornwall at that time. (They) lived there, and left a very large and thrifty family." I believe Ann was married to John in 1760, although Allan (p.82) has also indicated 1765, while Richie (p.169) says 1747 (I'm convinced that's wrong). Ann may have been from Phillack, since their marriage was recorded both there and Ludgvan.
