Subject: ST. ENDELLION - Chapple
Hi !
Just surfing for Chapple's in St. Endellion. My gr gr grandparents were Digory Gray & Elizabeth Guy of Trevatghan, m St. Endellion, Cornwall. As you note on the Census, some of their servants/staff were members of the Kellow family. Although I am not related to the Kellow family, just thought I'd get in touch any way.

Sad to say that 2 of the sons of Digory & Elizabeth Guy died in their youth, another son lived to a ripe old age and died in Devonshire, their only daughter Joan Gray [my gr grandmother] married John Chapple, son of the Governor of Bodmin Gaol. Shortly after John received his degree as an Architect he and wife Joan sailed in 1855 to Canada and settled in Ontario where they raised a fine family. John eventually became a Magistrate of a large territory here in Ontario, Canada.
