Hi,
I rarely see the name “trewartha”, so I was thrilled to see an entire website of “trewartha” info, people, etc.
I live near Chicago, IL, USA and have lived in the US my entire life.

Hi there, Terri, great to hear from you. We hope to expand the info here to link up with Trewarthas everywhere – if you have any more info you’d like to volunteer about your family (that you don’t mind being on public record here!) then feel free.

My grandfather, Paul Trewartha, was born in Hazel Green Wisconson. He married Viola Freeman from Walnut Grove, MN. They farmed all their life in the small town of Revere, MN.
All of our family is very proud of the Trewartha name. It is unusual. As children I remember people thinking we were fair haired Native American Indians.

Looking at Mike Trewartha’s website of Trewartha geneology, Peter (b. 1818) born in St Agnes, married not far away in Menagissey (also Cornwall) but died in Hazelgreen, Wi. He had 9 children, of them James, William, Francis and Richard all got married in Hazelwood and had families.
Looks like William’s son Paul married Viola here

Terri, could have been William (b. 1814 Gwennap, Cornwall) came over and started two Trewartha families around Illinois. Brought his wife and son, William, over too. William dying in the Battle of Chickamuga.

Sorry this isn’t a Trewartha query as such. I wonder if your mother ran the Old Mill Tearooms in Ide. I remeber going there many years ago and having an amazing green jelly preserve with cream – I think it was quince based. I am trying to track down a recipe. Apologies if I am off beam but any help you can offer would be appreciated. Many thanks.

Robin’s mother Mary did indeed run the Old Mill in Ide. The building is still there, even if Mary, and indeed Ide, isn’t!

Thanks for the great site. I am living in Sydney, Australia with my wife Patricia, children Alexander and Elouise & parents Frank and Janet.
We visited Cornwell a few years ago, and had heard there was a Trewartha farm, could not find anything so it was interesting to see your photo.

I think there are a few small places called Trewartha – there are lots of places named on variations of it.
Here is a small hamlet Trewartha which is within the parish of Veryan

Hi there,
Just a note to say that there is a group on Facebook called ‘Trewartha Collective’.
We haven’t made and great genealogical contributions, more taken great comfort in meeting other people who have to spell their name out all the time, that sort or thing!
It’s interesting to use to see where Trewarthas are in the rest of the world anyway.

Hi – Ken from Canberra (Australia) here. Nickname “Mouse” and “Duke”. There is another “Ken Trewartha” getting around so don’t get us mixed up!! I was born in England 1959 and moved to Aust in 1969 father Peter Bryan and Mum Valerie Ann (Staniford). I traced our line to 16th century via this excellent link http://www.miketree.co.uk/trewartha/f173.htm#P638 I have three sons and a daughter and they are so proud to be called Trewartha.

Not sure if my son replied to you, Ken, but here’s a belated acknowledgement, just in case. Thing about the Trewartha name is that it seems relatively unusual and then you find quite a lot of us and a few with the same name.
On our side, my ‘Arthur’ and my brother’s ‘Mark’ have both travelled down the family quite a few generations. Now another generation is starting underneath with my son and my daughter both producing infants in the last twelve months.
Busy times ….. fun times!

Hello Trewartha’s,
My name is Jenna and i’ve followed my tree back to William b.1797
My family have moved north through England to Scotland and now our branch is in North England again.
This summer we will be heading to trewartha in Cornwall to get some cheesy pic of me and the Trewartha road sign.

Hi there,
My name is Erin and I am an Australian now living in New Zealand. I am studying and one of our tasks was to trace our family origins as far as we could. My Grandfather was a Trewartha. I actually don’t know anything about him, my Mum never spoke much of him.. All I know is he lived and died in South Australia in the 1950s. Anyway, its great to see that this side of my family is so big and has so many connections to their ancestory..even if I dont know anything about it haha
=)

Greetings from Springfield, IL USA! Just wanted to add to this already excellent and growing community of Trewarthas from around the world!
My wife and I live in Springfield, but I come from Pontiac, IL originally.
Using Mike Tree’s tree I was able to find my great grandfather, Russel Trewartha (http://www.miketree.co.uk/trewartha/f479.htm). My grandfather was Richard, and his 1st son was John, my dad. Richard also had a daughter, Marylin, and 2 more sons, Robert and David. All of us live here in Illinois still.
We would love to come visit the ‘homeland’ someday!
Also, one last curiosity I’ve had for a long, long time. How does everyone pronounce Trewartha? Is it Tre-WAR-tha, TREE-war-tha, TREW-artha, or do you say it completely different? I’d love to know. Around these parts we say it somewhere between Tree-WAR-tha and Tre-WAR-tha.
