Re: Trevanion of Cornwall

Further to my earlier post, I can now add the following, all of which
comes from the secondary source that I mentioned:

John Wyse, born about 1377 at Stoke Damarell, was an MP from
1411-1422. He married firstly to a daughter of a John Milliton of
Meavy near Yelverton, and then remarried to a widow Constance, nee
Coffyn. His son Thomas was also an MP, from 1427-1450.

John and his older brother Oliver were children of a Serle Wyse of
Greystone in Lezant. Oliver inherited the family lands and when he
died before 16 Nov 1420, his son and heir Thomas, then aged rwo years,
was placed in the custody of his uncle the said John.

Serle is said to have been the husband of an Isobel Trevanion in 1334.
She in turn is described as the daughter of a John Trevanion who was a
Justice of Common Pleas temp. Edward III.

A recent history of the House of Commons, volume 4 p 62 is cited as a
source for information on the family. I do not have access to this
work however.

From what I have been able to find out about the Trevanions, which
unfortunately is not a lot, it seems that there was more than one John
Trevanion in the early to mid fourteenth century, and hence I do not
know which might be Isobel's father. I also could not find any Wyse
connection in the visitation pedigree for the Trevanion family as
published by J L Vivian.

I also cannot see how a man said to have been born in about 1377, and
another who died in 1420 leaving a son then aged only 2 years, could
be the children of a couple already married by 1334. It therefore
seems to me that there must be at least one, maybe two generations
missing from the Wyse pedigree at this point.

As indicated in my earlier post, if anyone can assist with information
on either family, or on likely sources for the same, it would be much
appreciated.

Thanks
Mark
