From the Methodist Register I can deduce the
following. Charles Benjamin and Jane Knowles
lived at Trewince, St Anthony from 1898 until
1902 and again from 1910 until Jane died in
1920. Between 1903 and 1908 they lived at
Tregowris which is in St Keverne parish.
Also you may have noticed that Charles
Benjamin died several years before Jane gave
birth to the last child George.
At one time (about 1907) Grosvenor Charles
Knowles was the churchwarden at St Keverne
parish church.
Sidney Knowles (born 1908) and of Manaccan
married Marion Lyne and had two daughters -
Patricia Marion born 1940 who married Russell
Retallack and lives at St Keverne and Edna Mary
born 1942 who married Montague Bloomfield and
lives at Manaccan. Marion Knowles died earlier
this year and Sidney died in the late 1990s.
