Hello, msv,
                 My husband's grandmother's maiden name was Vigus.  I think her grandfather's name was William Vigus and they lived in the Torpoint, Plymouth area.  I haven't really started researching these yet, but thought you might be interested.  I think there are many relatives in Cornwall.
Best wishes
Frosty
