Just realised I left out a vital date. Joseph's lease of Penpol farm was in 1735.

Hi Di,

Just read your very interesting post.

It appears that your great grandfather William and my great grandmother Mary Jane are brother and sister.

Thank you for the details on Penpol. My Grandmother stayed there in about 1904 and I believe took the photo.

I have just come across this site having been advised of it by my cousin's wife Viven.  I am a Martyn-Johns, my father was Thomas MJ his father Constantine MJ etc etc.  The info about the family history has been very interesting.

I understand the Martyn-Johns name cane about in 1880 approx when Thomas Johns (married to Anne Tremaine) was asked by this Uncle Joseph King Martin (Captain RN) to take the name Martyn as he had no descendants

I have posted a few photos of the family I have some I do not know who they are any suggestions would be helpful.

Hi Ding

Yes I agree Mary Jane & William were brother & sister.

I thought you,  and others, might like to see a photo of Aunt Trinidade (Jane Gertrude nee Johns.
