Could be - these towns and villages are close to Lawhitton - Ashwater is only 10Kms away and 5Kms from Northcott village. All the places are within 20Kms.
I've traced back to John Northcott, born 1819 in Lawhitton Cornwell England.
He married Pricilla (b.1821 in Lifton Devon) and had 4 sons and 1 daughter
all born in Lawhitton Cornwall England -
William born 1839
John Henry b. 1841
George b. 1844
Thomas b. 1847
Elizabeth b. 1850
John Henry Northcott and his 1st wife had a daughter, Priscilleen, born in 1865.
John Henry Northcott joined the British Army and eventually came to Australia with his 2nd wife Annie in 1886.
I have no information on the other family members
John Henry and Annie Northcott had 2 sons and 3 daughters. The 1st son, John Lose - born 1873, is my grandfather.
