CHARLES ASHTON GRONNOW
« on: Sunday 11 July 04 20:37 BST (UK) »
I have the following death certificate of one Charles Ashton Gronnow aged 67 who died in 1911 in the Cheshire Asylum Upton by Chester. His occupation was "Personal Servant of Trevallyn, Allington near Wrexham".
It would appear that Charles lived in the shadows, I can find no trace of birth, nor does he appear on the 81, 91 or 01 Census. I am aware there was a large house of Trevallyn, could he perhaps have worked there? I would love to hear from anyone who has experience of this area.

I don't know if you have made any progress with this?

I haven't found Charles either, but in 1881 there are several GRONNOW families living in the vicinity of Trevalyn Hall, Allington.  The nature of their jobs suggest they may have worked on the estate.  the hall was owned by Boscawen J G BOSCAWEN, JP and landowner.

I found this fascinating site, which has a picture of the Hall.  Apparently Trefalun is the oldname for Allington

Hi Arranroots Wink

I too found the site, a few years back, and left a message on the board. But thanks for trying to help,  MUCH appreciated Wink

Still Have not found Charles, his birth is not registered, only his death. Some of our relations like to stay out of the light.

Regards.
