BIRTH: Year from IGI

NOTE: Information from William J. Curnow Jr.; The year of his death may actually have been 1738; Anthea Hurst believes that it was 1736, but Peter R. Curnow records it as 1738. This point needs to be rechecked in source documentation. Jo Jefford also shows the 1738 date, and she shows the marriage date as 1684.  There was an Ann Curnow, wife of Peter, who was buried at Towednack on 08-AUG-1741; was she a second wife of Peter?? Was she the wife of his son Peter??

Jane HARRIS. Jane married Peter CURNOW.

NOTE: Informaton from Kathie Weigel


John BARAGWANATH was born about 1590 in Towednack, Cornwal, England. He died about 1657 in Towednack, Cornwal, England. John married Eleanor in , , Cornwall, England.

NOTE: The following is information from Kathie Weigel:  Archdeaconry of Cornwall, AP/B/1283, Will of John Baragwanath, dp. 7 January 1660/1. Written 7 September 1657. Names daughter Emblem, daughter Elizabeth (to share the lease on the house in Chylason for the years remaining); daughter Catherine; granddaughter Mary; "John ______?? his children"(crossed out); "John Thomas' children"; son Richard; "John Cornow's children `my grandchildren'"; wife (not named); daughter Jane (the latter two to be executors).  Inventory taken 3 January 1660/1, so John probably died shortly before that date

Eleanor was born in 1596 in . She died after 1657. Eleanor married John BARAGWANATH in , , Cornwall, England.

They had the following children.

  M i
John BARAGWANATH was born in 1618 in . He died after 1680.

NOTE: The following information is from Kathie Weigel: John Hobson Matthews, "A History of Saint Ives, Lelant, Towednack and Zennor, in the County of Cornwall" (London: Elliot Stock, 1892), p. 264: A deposition taken September 1680, concerning a non-payment of a tithe, shows "John Baraguanath, of Towednack, yeoman, age 62" as one of the deponees.  
John is not named in the will of his father; however, the scarcity of Baragwanaths would seem to indicate that he IS a son of the elder John.  His birth year fits perfectly into the family, and as he is the likliest
candidate to be the father of an ELEANOR Baragwanath (see note "i," below); I am confident in placing him as the son of John and Eleanor. It is not unheard of in England for a father to omit the name of the eldest son in his will, as he automatically inherits anything not bequeathed; also as an eldest son, he may have already received his inheritance.  
John Baragwanath must have married and had issue. He and Richard are the only Baragwanaths in the area, and Richard is too young to be the father of the following:
  Eleanor Barragwanath m. Thomas Carnsew  31 Aug 1669, St. Ives
  Margaret Baragwanath m. John Nicholas 1671, Towednack
  F ii Emblem BARAGWANATH was born about 1620. She died in Jul 1684.

NOTE: The following information is from Kathie Weigel: Archdeaconry of Cornwall, AP/B/1283, Will of John Baragwanath, dp. 7 January 1660/1. Written 7 September 1657.
