                         SOURCES AND NOTES:

All unfootnoted information is taken from the Ludgvan, Cornwall, Parish
Register, LDS film #1595868.

        Notes keyed to letters in () in above information:

a. Archdeaconry of Cornwall, AP/T/396, Thomas Trousene of Ludgvan, 
   dp. __ December 1622. Written 29 July 1622. Names son John, son 
   Alexander, brother George (decd.); daughter Margaret Heamen, daughter 
   Susanna Cornowe, daughter Frances; Florance w/o son Alexander; Francis
   s/o son Alexander; Thomas s/o son John. Mentions several "closes"
   at Tolwaden (Gwele Down, Gwele Helles, Parc an Barad, Parc an Poole)

b. Ludgvan P.R. "25 June 1625 was married John Rogger to Jane ye daughter
   of Alexander Trowson"
   Ibid. "3 November 1627 was married mychell Perat and Grace ye daughter
   of Alexander Trouson"

c. I believe this is one case where omnastic evidence can stand alone:
   Nicholas Trounsen resided in Ludgvan as did Thomas and Alexander, and was 
   of the generation immediately following Alexander; Nicholas named his 
   eldest son Alexander, and his eldest daughter Florance.

d. Margaret's surname is not given in the Ludgven P.R.

e. Mary was probably the mother of the last two children. There is no record
   of her predecessor's death in the P.Rs., but there is a gap in the
   children between 1659 and 1663. Nicholas' youngest son Peter was almost
   certainly a son of Mary, since he gave a daughter that name, but did
   not name a daughter Margaret. But NOT proven; wife #1 COULD have been the
   mother of all the children.

f. Archdeaconry of Cornwall, Wills, Nicholas Trounsen of Ludgvan, 
   dp. 22 April 1686. Written 6 December 1684. Names son Peter, 
   daughter Catherine, wife Mary.

g. The will of Thomas' son John (q.v.) names an uncle, Walter Thomas.
   This Walter Thomas left a will (Archdeaconry of Cornwall, AP/T/483),
   written 8 Mar 1626/7 and proved 3 April 1627, which names Alexander
   Trounsen and his children; sister Margaret Trounsen, widow; Susan
   Curnow and her husband William; Margaret Heyman and her husband John
   and son Richard.

h. International Genealogical Index, Cornwall, LDS. Extracts of various
   Cornish parish registers.

i. Madron, Cornwall, original Parish Register, LDS film #1595913.

j. Archdeaconry of Cornwall, AP/T/491, Will of John Trounsen of St. 
   Hilary, written 7 Nov. 1625,  proved 31 May 1627. Names wife Margaret,
   children, Thomas, Walter, John and Ann Trounsen; uncle Walter Thomas;
   brother-in-law, William Curnow; deceased father Thomas Trounsen; 
   Florance w/o Alexander Trounsen.

k. Archdeaconry of Cornwall, AP/C/1372, Will of Susan Curnow of Marazion,
   widow. Written 28 Oct 1664, proved 7 Jan 1664/5. Names various persons
   with no relationship stated. Bulk of estate to Grace Perrott, neice.

l. Note: Susanna's mother died at her birth (she is buried on the day of
   Susanna's christening). Since Peter Trounsen did not remarry for several
   years; it is likely that Susanna was raised by someone else other than
   her father. Peter's only surviving sister, Katherine Dale, very possibly
   raised Susanna; this Katherine's daughter Jane Dale married John Glasson,
   the brother of Susanna's husband.

                        SOURCES and NOTES:

The majority of the information has been taken from the following four
sources. Individual notes follow.

. Madron, Cornwall original Parish Register, LDS film #1595913.
. Ludgvan, Cornwall original Parish Register, LDS film #1595868.
. St. Uny Lelant, Cornwall original Parish Register, LDS film #1595781.
. Towednack, Cornwall, transcripts of original Parish Register, baptisms 
   and burials only, thru 1812. LDS film #254222.

             Notes coded to letters ( ) in body of info:

a. Archdeaconry of Cornwall, Will of Honor Glasson of Madderne widow, 
   dp. 2 May 1739. Written 13 February 1738/9. Names John and George 
   Glasson "sons of son John"; Jane and Susanna Glasson "wives of sons
   John and Thomas"; Thomas Glasson Jr. "son of son Thomas." Mentions
   also a "tenement at Hea."

b. Madron, Cornwall, Bishop's Transcripts.

c. Archdeaconry of Cornwall, Will of Thomas Glasson, dp. 29 May 1765. 
   Written 5 September 1759. Names sons John, Thomas, Joseph, William,
   James and Stephen. Also mentions tenement at Hea.

d. Honor Glasson, widow, married at Ludgvan, 12 Feb 1768, Nathaniel 
   Honeychurch. Honor Honeychurch bur. 12 Feb 1794, age 68.

e. Susanna Glasson who married Thomas Reddiford in Lelant is almost certainly 
   a sister of John Glasson, who was the "pioneer" Glasson in Lelant. No
   Susanna of the correct age can be found in any of the local parish 
   registers, so her christening went unrecorded. William Glasson's mother
   was named Susanna, and John Glasson named a daughter Susanna. (Note: it is 
   also possible that the second daughter called Honor found in the Ludgvan 
   register was actually Susanna and the clerk recorded the name incorrectly).

f. Note: John Glasson was Overseer of the Poor for Lelant parish in 
   1799-1801.

g. Lelant P.R.: Banns published 2, 11 and 16 December. John signed his name; 
   Christian signed with an "O". Witnesses were Thomas Uren (the bride's
   father) and John Edwards.

h. St. Uny Lelant, Cornwall, Churchwarden's Accounts, 1722-1800, 
   LDS film #254226. John Glasson paid rates for "part of Polpear"
   beginning in 1787, shortly after the death of his father-in-law.

i. Lelant P.R.: parents listed incorrectly as "John and Catherine."
   The names Christian and Catherine can be found interchanged with some
   frequency in the Lelant registers.

j. Lelant P.R.: Residence at death Towednack. 
   Census of Great Britain 1851, Chylasson, Towednack, Cornwall, #33,
   William Glasson, age 79, b. Lelant, wife Ann, age 74, b. Ludgvan.

k. William's wife was his 1st cousin, Ann Glasson, daughter of William 
   and Ann (Walker) Glasson of Ludgvan.

l. Witnesses John Glasson and Richard Hawes (parish clerk).

m. Lelant P.R.: Marriage of Elizabeth Glasson of Lelant and Thomas Jelbart 
   of Lelant; witnesses John Glasson (same signature as on several of 
   Elizabeth's siblings marriages) and Phillis Trewhella. Elizabeth named 
   children William, John, Josiah and Joseph. She was buried at St. Buryan
   in 1850, age 66, which puts her birth to 1784. There was a christening at
   Lelant in 1784 of a son William to John and Christian; however, their
   1st son William was alive and well, and the later records on him (see 
   note j.) fit his birth in 1771. There is no evidence of a second William 
   existing; It appears that this was a clerk's error, and the child 
   christened was actually Elizabeth. Note also that Elizabeth's husband, Thomas
   Jelbart, was one of the bondsmen for the estate of John Glasson of Lelant.

n. International Genealogical Index, Cornwall, LDS. Extracts from various
   Cornish parish registers. Parents listed as John and "Kitty" Glasson.

o. Burial record of Elizabeth Jelbart provided by Rob Wilson, Cirencester,
   Gloucester, England.

p. International Genealogical Index, Cornwall, LDS. Extracts of marriages 
   from various Cornish parishes.

q. Witnesses Thomas Bryant and John Glasson.

r. Witnesses Richard Grenfell and Jakeh Glasson.

s. Witnesses William Glasson and Jacke Glasson.

t. Witnesses were John Glasson and Thomas Richards (parish clerk).

u. Parents given as John and SUSANNA Glasson. No known family of this name
   in the area; clerk may have confused name of John's wife with that of
   his sister.

v. St. Ives, Cornwall, Parish Register, LDS film #1595570. Witnesses
   were William Glasson and Tho. Williams.

w. Wife's name and death date provided by Jo Glasson Smith. In 1881 Josiah 
   was living with his sister Christian Trevelyanin Penzance. He wass age 
   62, married, but his wife was not present. In 1871 his wife was living at
   St. Ives, listed as marreid, but husband not present.

x. Archdeaconry of Cornwall, Index to Wills and Admons, Madron, bond of 
   Johis Glasson, dp. 10 October 1715.

y. Archdeaconry of Cornwall, Will of George Perry, dp. 3 October 1723. 
   Names sister Honor Glasson.

z. John Glasson's wife Jane Dale, and Thomas Glasson's wife Susanna Trounsen
   were first cousins, Jane being the daughter of John and Katherine 
   (Trounsen) Dale, and Susanna being the daughter of Peter Trounsen, 
   Katherine's brother.
