"Hinkleville Ballard Co. Ky Feb 14, 1887
I have heard my father say there was property left us in
England, but never heard who it was left by. My great grandfathers name was
Henry (1734-1811) and I think his wifes name was Tanson (it was Thomasine
Courtenay). They had 4 sons, Samual, William, John and Henry. I have seen them.
If there were any more I dont know it. John, (1769 Eng -1851 Ballard Ky) that
is my grandfather married Margaret Pearce (1769-1861 Ballard Ky). They had 10
children only four came to this country. The others died in England. Their
names were, Samual, Henry, John and James. John that was my father married
Elizabeth Boase. They were married in Penzance England. James married Harriette
Pascoe in Truro, Cornwall County England. There was a woman called Aunt Adams,
seems that there was property left by her, dont know which side of the ...(continued
on page 2) … she was conected to. My father used to sign his name John C
Trewolla. The "C" was for Courtney. It may be a family name. (it was
his grandmas maiden name)
Bettie Trewolla Fortson"
