I have found the burial of my 7x Great Grandmother Jane Duncalf nee Knuckley Parish: Helston Date: 28-Aug 1696 Name: Jane DUNCALF Age: Residence: Register notes: buried in the church Transcriber Notes: ref: 2PR-p.161 Transcriber: Don Carkyk As she was buried in the church does that mean that she came from a notable family. Were the Duncalfs an important family or was Jane a descendant of an important family? Jane was the daughter of Christopher Knuckey and Ann Halls. I have found a Sir Nicholas Hallse but cannot find any connection. Any information would be much appreciated. Thankyou in advance from your help. Cheers, Catherine Sydney, Australia

Hi Catherine, I think it may have been Jane's KNUCKEY origin which got her into the church. Of the Helston burials transcribed by the OPC, there were no DUNCALF entries, but there was this one: "Jone KNUCKEY, wife of Christavar KNUCKEY, buried in the church" November 28, 1684 Joanne Toronto, Canada ----- Original Message ----- From: "Catherine Frendo" <catherinefrendo@hotmail.com> To: <cornish-gen@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, July 29, 2010 7:44 PM Subject: [CORNISH-GEN] Jane Duncalf nee Knuckey (1600's) > > > > I have found the burial of my 7x Great Grandmother Jane Duncalf nee > Knuckley > > > > > > Parish: > > Helston > > > Date: > > 28-Aug 1696 > > > Name: > > Jane DUNCALF > > > Age: > > > > > Residence: > > > > > Register notes: > > buried in the church > > > Transcriber Notes: > > ref: 2PR-p.161 > > > Transcriber: > > Don Carkyk > > As she was buried in the church does that mean that she came from a > notable family.
