Administrative / biographical background

The manor of Tolgullow or St. Day was for many years held in severalties, the Hearle family of Penryn owning 1/3 part, the family of Champernowne of Dartington 3/8 parts, Chichester 1/6, and Southwood and Whitter 1/16 part each. In 1804 a scheme was suggested for a new division of the holdings, but because of numerous disagreements the division did not take place until 1828 (see C. C. James' History of Gwennap, pages 66 to 70).
