Hi Osprey and KGarrad,
I have no idea how to read the dates (are they dates?) in this lineage from the 'Visitations of the County of Cornwall'
I am trying to verify the birthdate for John Trefusis (m Margery Gervese). Family trees in Ancestry.com have it as 1408, but I don't know where they got it from. I am hoping to be able to make an educated guess as to who the Lord of the Manor of Trefusis was in 1452 when my ancestor was 'freed'
The link is below. Thank you!

is the scan of the 1633 baptism available from FamilySearch? You need to know how the year has been transcribed. If it shows as 1633 on the register, that would be what we think of 1633/4. There's a marriage for Benet & Grace in 16/4/1634 in Breage. 

Hi Osprey, I have found the baptism it says Feb 1633, but it occurs in the register after December 1633, so I am guessing that would be what we now think of as 1634 with the new year occurring at the end of March?

I received the wills from CRO, unfortunately, the one for John Bawden of Wendron says nothing that would indicate his brother Benedict had moved to Breage. John actually appears to have had connections further North as both Wendron and Stithians Parish Churces listed as beneficiaries.

I think we have come to a stop.

Beautifully done Roy!

Thanks Caroline
I definitely want the wax to stay! I want it to look as authentic as possible, just hoping to get rid of the nasty scratches etc.
