Detailed listing
Detailed listing

Named after Saint Sithney, the patron saint of the parish church.[3] Saint Sithney was one of the band of Irish missionaries who came to west Cornwall. William Worcester recorded in 1478 that the body of the saint lay within the church

History

Church

In 1230 the church belonged to the Antrenon family who attached to it a charge of 4 shillings yearly to the priory of St Germans. In 1267 it was appropriated to Glasney College; the last rector ceded his benefice to the college in 1270.[4]

The parish church is of Norman foundation but the present structure is more or less of the 15th century. The old Norman font of this church was removed to the new church of Carnmenellis (since demolished). A 13th-century coffin slab was brought to the church from St John's.[5] In the churchyard is a monument to John Oliver, 1741. John Rogers, the landowner, mineral lord and biblical scholar, is buried here.[6] On 30 May 1882, Messrs Hele & Co of Plymouth installed an organ at a cost of £200.[7]

Bridges

St. Johns area is included in the parish of Sithney.[8] The bridge across the main road has two dates carved into granite stones; 1833 and 1861 after it was completed. Nearer Sithney Common Hill stands St. Johns Bridge (Helston Bridge) that, although originally completed by 1260, has only the central west archway section remaining. Otherwise, the older sections left were built in the 16th century.[9]

Hospitals and houses

Gardens at Trevarno
Truthall

At St Johns near Helston Bridge a hospital was founded c. 1250 by Henry de Bollegh, Archdeacon of Cornwall, and endowed with the manor of Penventon by the Reskymer family.[10] This foundation consisted in 1324 of a prior and two brethren. The hospital was abolished in 1545; by this time the priors had been non-resident for 50 years, the building was ruinous and a lone chaplain served the chapel. A leper hospital was founded nearby in the 15th century and dedicated to St Mary Magdalene.

At Truthall was the medieval mansion of the Nance family which has an old chapel of c. 1500.[11] The mansion forms the right wing of Truthall manor; the centre is dated 1642 and the left wing 19th century.[12] The gate piers, courtyard, walls and central building linking the old mansion and Truthall manor are Grade II* listed. Truthall was recorded in the Domesday Book (1086) as having half a hide of land. It was part of the royal manor of Winnianton.[13] In 1903, a halt station was built for the Manor, called Truthall Halt, situated on the Helston Branchline.

Truthall has a derivation from "tre" "Iudhael", i.e. Iudhael's farm. The same derivation applies to Truthwall in Ludgvan; however Truthwall in Crowan and Truthwall in St Just in Penwith derive from "tre" "Godual" (Godual's farm).[14]

Hi Richard
I am interested in the Tyack family because they married into my ancestral family, the Pethericks of Camborne, Cornwall. Your ancestor, John Tyack 1838 (married Henrietta Peters Harry) was the brother of James c.1835 who married Mary Jane Petherick 1833. She was the sister of my gt gt grandfather William Petherick 1830 so although we are not related, our families are.
I am also interested as your family moved into the Worcestershire/ Warwickshire area which is very near to where we used to live near Redditch.(We are now in France!)We are quite familiar with the Alcester, Pershore, Evesham areas.

Re: A big Tyack Family Tree in Cornwall

Hi Richard,

My sister-in-law is descended from a Tyack line from Sithney, Cornwall: James Tyack (Abt 1811 - 1873) and Elizabeth Clarke Lobb (Abt 1814 - 1866).I have their marriage certificate that shows them as being of full age and James is a Bachelor on 4 Dec 1851.So I think that James father Richard (b abt 1791 Sithney d bef 1851) married a Mary or Mary Ann.It's confusing because there appears to be two James Tyacks born around 1811.

As far as I can show James and Elizabeth Lobb had three children: James (Abt 1852 - Abt 1880), John Lobb (Abt 1854 - Abt 1878) and Richard (b Abt 1857 Mawgan - d 21 Aug 1940, Maxstoke, Warwickshire). My sister-in-law has this Richard's school book in which he adds an "e" to his surname to become Tyacke. My sister-in-law is a great grand-daughter of this Richard and she lives in Warwickshire.

Some of this detail is on my web site www.antill.org.uk

Regards,

John Antill
