William Trenaman [T-6x-ggp]

Birth Name William Trenaman [T-6x-ggp] 1a 2a

    Ancestors above William Trenaman 1720/21 could be wrong
    Neil Trenaman has William [b 1720/1] as :- born 1703
    William's / James father as Nathaniel Trinnaman b.1664 at Okehampton. Okehampton being 7 miles from Hatherleigh where Willam b.1703 married Joan Sitten in 1745.
    I appreciate there is an age difference between them but that is not that unusual.
    Nathaniel married Mary Avery at Okehampton.
    His parents were John Trinnaman b. around 1630 and Mary Culme, b.1642.
    As you probably know the first recorded Trenamans came from St Mellion/Pillaton area in Cornwall but unfortunately I have been unable to prove a link from the 1500's to the John T.
    I believe to be my 7 x ggf.
    .
    [There is a William Trenaman married Catharine Batt on 03 Jun 1745 at Okehampton,Devon. Les T]
    .
    I find it very interesting that you have also gone back to North Petherwin with the Trenamans.
    I was lucky with this because my ancestor Catherine Ellacott was born in North Petherwin and married John Ellacott of Hatherleigh there on lst January 1765 - quite some distance to travel in those days.
    I think they also must have been cousins. John Ellacott was the son of George Ellacott and Jane Hatch/Hacche of Hatherleigh, but to date I have not found their baptisms.
    Following Jane's death George Ellacott married Ann Medland on 5 Jan 1772 Hatherleigh.
    I am wondering if the Trenamans and Ellacotts of North Petherwin were connected, perhaps via the Hockin/Hawking family, especially with Thomas Ellacott (grandson of Catherine) marrying Elizabeth Trenaman.

Interestingly, looking on the National Archives I found the following a while ago:

Short title: Badham v Trenaman. Document type: Bill only. Plaintiffs: Thomas Badlam yeoman of North ...
...Trenaman. Document type: Bill only. Plaintiffs: Thomas Badlam yeoman of North Petherwin, Devon. Defendants: William Trenaman and James Trenaman. Date of bill (or first document): 1723. Date of last document: 1723. ...
Collection: Records created, acquired, and inherited by Chancery, and also of the Wardrobe, Royal Household, Exchequer and various commissions
Date range: 1723
Reference:C 11/52/10

It looks as though the brothers James and William Trenaman were having a problem in 1723!

Narrative

(Thank you for your email. I have looked at the North Petherwin parish church marriage register and have located a wedding for a William Trenaman and Grace Hockin on 5 July 1720. Remember that before 1752 the year ended on 25 March not January 1, as today, so the baptism of William in January 1720 would be 1721 by our reckoning in 2007 - Cornwall Record Office) via Joy Walker nee Barker - 01.06..2011
