Trezise family - Cornwall, Cumbria, South Wales and Lancashire
Hi
Earlier long gone posts requested information re; The Bryant family. My wife, Wendy, is the grand-daughter of John (Jack) Bryant and his wife Isabella Trezise. Both of these families originated in Cornwall (the Bryants were from Lelant near St Ives and the Trezises were originally from Sancreed, near Penzance). John and Isabella were married in Burnley, Lancashire. I have traced both these families back to the early 1800s. Families linked with the Bryants and the Trezises are the Grenfells of St Ives and the Clatworthys of Somerset.
The Trezises and The Clatworthys both left their original counties to work in the South Wales coalfields. This is where the two families joined before moving up to mine in Lancashire.
