John, Thomas and Joseph, and a sister, Susannah Joll all went to the US. Only a couple of people remained in England. John, Joseph, Thomas, and Susannah were all married from about 1815-1825. Some spent time at Phillack, Cornwall. But most were at Tywardreath-St. Blazey area. The family came into the area by 1816. I have looked into other parishes, trying to find where the family orginially came from. My guess is the Gwennap area. But the Wicks or Weeks there likely are maybe kinfolk, but not the place that the father of the family came from.
