Early life (in St Gennys & Otterham)
Samuel was baptised at St Gennys on 18th August 1751, the son of Peter and Joan nee Sharp and grandson of Michael and Ruth nee Winter. He had many descendants and the surname finally settled at being spelt "Treays" in this branch of the family. Samuel's signature from an early 19th century document After he was born, his parents Joan and Peter Trease had two more children before his mother Joan died late in 1755. It appears that up to the time of his mother's death the family lived in St Gennys but after her death they possibly moved to Otterham as it was in Otterham that his father Peter was buried two years later and where Samuel may thus have become orphaned.
At that time, boys could be apprenticed from the age of 7 up until a maximum age of twenty one to prevent them from becoming a charge on the local parish. The arrangement relieved the parish of a potentially costly burden, was attractive to the employer who gained cheap labour, and enabled the apprentice to learn a useful trade. Unfortunately for Samuel, he was old enough to be apprenticed when he was orphaned, unlike his younger brother Michael who was too young to work and had to be cared for by others.
So, at the age of 7, Samuel was apprenticed to Edward Harris of Otterham to learn the skills of husbandry for the full term of 14 years until he reached the age of 21. It is thought that Edward Harris may have been the farmer who married Elizabeth Glanville in Otterham in 1751 and may have had children of a similar age to Samuel. In his will of 1804 Edward mentions his home at St Tineder (and another property at West Roose). The location St Tineder is no longer to be found but today there is a location called St Tinney, Otterham and this may possibly be the same farm. Edward Harris appears to have treated Samuel well since Samuel voluntarily chose to continue working for him for another two years after the age of 21. So from the ages of 7 to 23, Samuel lived with Edward Harris and his family as a farm servant probably at St Tineder (St Tinney) and in the absence of his own parents the Harris family would have been the main influence on his life. The main problem for Samuel was that general farming skills were not hard to come by and he was not acquiring the skills of a trade.
Life after leaving Otterham and before going to Quethiock
For reasons unknown, maybe simply that Samuel felt that at age 23 after 16 years of doing the same thing he should try a change of employer, Samuel went to work for Digory Rogers. Digory was, almost certainly, the brother of Margaret Jollow, whose daughter Mary was to go on to marry Samuel's brother Michael in 1778. Digory had been farming in St Gennys but moved to Otterham in the early 1770s. About 1774, Digory moved to Davidstow and employed Samuel on an annual contract as a "Servant in Husbandry", whereby Samuel was provided with board and lodging at Digory's farm plus £5 10s 0d a year wages. Samuel worked for Digory for about eight years until about 1782, when, in his early thirties, he went to work for Thomas Jewell of St Gennys for one year on a similar contract. When the year was up around January 1783, he moved yet again to work for the Reverend William Phillips who had been instituted vicar of Llanteglos by Camelford in April 1747. His new employer appears to have been a pleasant person to work for as a contemporary of his said he was "universally respected for his placid manners and benevolent disposition". Whilst Samuel had the same sort of job as before, the environment would have been different as his new employer was a cultured and learned man at the centre of parish community life. However, Samuel worked there for only one year six weeks.
Life in Quethiock
In February 1784, Samuel moved to the parish of Quethiock which is about 12 miles east of Bodmin. He had agreed a new contract of employment there with Edward Harris at a 25% increase in his salary. This Edward Harris may possibly be related to the Edward Harris of Otterham for whom Samuel had worked 10 years previously but no definite connections have been found so far.
On 20th November 1784, at the age of 33, Samuel married Mary Souther in Quethiock. He was described as a sojourner (visitor) in the parish register, although he had been working there for nine months. Mary appears to have been much younger than Samuel. The age attributed to her when she died indicates she was about 20 years old when she married Samuel. The witnesses to the wedding were Abel Lane and Samuel Rogers. The witnesses could be the same persons who had in 1772 acted as sureties for widow Jane Rogers when she was granted administration of the estate of her husband Samuel. Her husband's sister Christian married Abel Lane in 1772 so he can be identified as Jane's brother in law. The relationship of administrator Samuel Rogers to Jane is unclear - her son Samuel was only 7 years old in 1772 and her husband Samuel and his father had died. Perhaps he was a cousin or uncle. So far no relationship between the bride and groom and these two witnesses to the wedding has been established. Also nothing more is known about Samuel Treay's wife wife, Mary, nor how he came to meet her.
Before Samuel's marriage, his contract of employment had been another annual contract as a "Servant in Husbandry" whereby he lived with his employer, who provided board and lodging, and he received a small annual salary (in this case for £7 10s. 0d). When he married, such an arrangement was impractical and his contract with Edward Harris was switched from an annual contract to a weekly contract whereby, instead of living with his employer, he and his new wife would live separately in a farm worker's "tied" house and he would receive six shillings for each week worked. Samuel and Mary set up home in a "cot-house" (worker's tied house), in Trehunnest (now called "Trehunist") close to Samuel's employer Edward Harris. They were definitely living there in 1789 but on the 25th March 1792 the house known as "Treize's in Trehunnest" was leased out to Lewis Sansom, a yeoman, and his family, so Samuel appears to have moved by then, probably to live in the village of Quethiock which was about half a mile to the north.
Samuel and Mary are known to have had six children, three sons and three daughters of whom one son and one daughter died in infancy. There is a 10 year gap between the baptism of daughter Betty on 5th February 1797 and the baptism of their last child, Ann, on 5th August 1807 and it seems probable that other children would have been born during this period.
In 1809, Quethiock parish became part of the Liskeard Non-Conformist circuit and Samuel's house became the first licensed Non-Conformist meeting place there. On Sundays, travelling preachers, men who worked at their trades during the week, would walk or ride to his house to proclaim the good news. Many records of the Liskeard Non-Conformist circuit have survived but these have not been further inspected to see if further information can be gleaned about Samuel.
It is thought that Samuel would not have needed to read or write in order to perform his farm work but it is apparent that Samuel, unlike even some of the farmers who employed workers such as him, could indeed read and write. Somewhere during his life he had attained these skills. It seems unlikely that his first employer would have paid for his education - there would have been no point as it would not have helped his employer, a small farmer who did not need a person with steward skills. However the ability to read and write were needed by Samuel for his work in the non-conformist church and it is surmised that he may have attained these skills later in life in order to support that work.Later years
On the 12th April 1817, Samuel signed a Settlement Examination under Oath before William Hickes Horndon Esq., a Callington Justice of the Peace. Although Samuel had worked in Quethiock for 30 years and the application of common sense would be that his place of residence for Poor Law relief purposes was Quethiock, the strict application of the letter of the law in force then gives a different answer. To establish residence a person had to have worked in that place for at least one full year as a yearly servant and received a full year's wages. Although Samuel had worked in Quethiock for most of his life, he had never worked a full year as a yearly servant and most of the time he had been on a weekly contract which did not count for residence purposes. His last employment before he came to Quethiock had been in Lanteglos by Camelford on an annual contract and thus Lanteglos by Camelford was ,by the strict application of the Poor Laws, the last place in which residence had been established. Samuel's settlement examination document is held at Corwall Records Office under the heading of Poor Law Papers, Lanteglos by Camelford Parish. The document also bears the the following request by Samuel "Sir, I hope you will send £2 10s by the bearer, from your humble servant, Samuel Treays".
A possible explanation of the previous paragraph is that Samuel, who was then 65 or possibly 66, had become unfit for work and had tried to claim Poor Law Relief from Quethiock. The Parish authorities there had refused payment by applying strict interpretation of the law to his case and as a result Samuel had to re-establish residence at Lanteglos by Camelford and claim Poor Law Relief from them. A possible reason for the reluctance of Quethiock parish to bend the rules for him was that the Poor Laws were administered by the local church and his support for the Methodist cause would not endear him to them. Unfortunately only the settlement examination document has survived so the full circumstances of the event are not known. The sum of £2. 10s. 0d claimed by Samuel implies that there had been earlier communications with Camelford parish but whether they met his claim and whether he remained living there is unknown.
The last record of his family in Quethiock is the baptism on 27th July 1817 of Samuel's granddaughter Jane, daughter of his son Peter and his wife Margaret. The last record we have of Samuel before his death at the moment is the 25th August 1820, when his younger brother Michael drew up his will leaving Samuel a bequest of £5 and all Michael's wearing apparel. Samuel must have still been alive then and Michael almost certainly would have been in contact with him and been aware of his difficult situation.
If Samuel did go to Lanteglos by Camelford, then it seems that he did not stay there but ultimately went to live with one of his children's families in Stoke Damerel in Plymouth where he died and was buried on the 11th January 1832.
His wife appears to have outlived him by 13 years. The 1841 census shows a Mary Trays aged 75 living in Fore Street East Stonehouse in the household of Catherine Webber which appears to include Catherine's grandchildren and a possible married granddaughter Matilda Martin. It seems likely that Mary was related in some way to Catherine Webber but the relationship if any has not been discovered. Mary and Samuel's son Samuel had married Ann Martin in 1812 and named his first daughter Matilda. In the 1841 census sheets, the address in Fore Street is only a few houses away from Providence Place where Mary Treay's daughter Mary Wood was living with her family.
Mary was living in High Street East Stonehouse when she died on the 20th February 1845. She was buried a fortnight later in the parish church of Stoke Damerel on the 7th March. She was said to be 80 years old.Samuel and Mary's children
- They named their first child John. He was baptised at Quethiock church on 21st August 1785 and buried there 5 months later on the 17th January 1786.
- son Samuel was baptised in Quethiock in 1787. He worked as a general labourer in Devonport Dockyard, eventually becoming a sawyer. He and Ann Martin married in Stoke Damerel in 1812, both aged about 25. They had four sons and three daughters. After Samuel retired with a RN pension, he rented a small holding at Middle Swilly for a while. His wife died in Stoke Damerel in 1872 aged 83 and Samuel died there in 1879 aged 93 .
- daughter Mary was baptised in Quethiock in 1790 and in 1813 got married there to John Wood who was then a husbandman from St Germans and about a year her junior. Her husband later became a timber dealer in East Stonehouse where he died aged 78 in 1870 and Mary died aged 88 in 1879. They had at least nine children.
- son Peter was born during 1793 [Baptismal record Petter Trease.] As yet nothing more is known about him until 1814, when he was just over 21 years old and as Peter Treays, he married Margaret Olver in the nearby town, Liskeard, Cornwall. From later information and by implication he was probably apprenticed as a cordiyer/shoemaker until then. By 1819 they had moved to Plymouth where Peter was recorded as a Shoe-Maker. Peter and Margaret appear to have had at least 6 children, 3 sons and 3 daughters, one son dying in infancy. Margaret appears to have died sometime within a year or two of 1830.
In 1831 Peter remarried in East Stonehouse to Susan/Susanna Phillips. Only one child of their marriage is known, a daughter called Emma. By 1841 Peter had joined the Police Force and was by then a policeman. Susan died in Stoke Damerel during 1843 age 50: she thus appears to have been approximately the same age as Peter.
In 1851 Peter married for a third time: his new wife was Sybilla Burrow who had been born in Lifton, Devon. She appears to have been about 13 years younger than Peter, she being about 45 when they married and he about 58. Peter died in Stoke Damerel in 1871 aged 77 years. After his death, Sybilla went to live with her sister Tamzin and her husband. She died in Stoke Damerel during 1883 aged about 77.
- daughter Bett(e)y was born late 1796/early 1797 [Baptismal record Trese.] No definite information about her has been located to date. She may be the Elizabeth TREAYS who, then aged about 17 or 18, witnessed the marriage of Peter TREAYS and Margaret OLVER at Liskeard in 1814. She may also herself be the Elizabeth TREAYS who married William Jenkins in Stoke Damerel in 1816 but there is insufficient evidence to affirm or deny this.
- daughter Ann was christened on 5th August 1807. Her funeral was a few weeks later on 17th September.
- ?son Abel. The only reference to him is that "Abil TREAYS" was a witness at the 1816 wedding of Elizabeth TREAYS to William Jenkins. No baptismal, burial, nor indeed any other record, has been found referring to him. Abel is a most unusual christian name but was used by the Lane family who witnessed Samuel's wedding, which is a contributory reason to him being thought to be a son of Samuel. The gap between daughter Bettey and daughter Ann's baptism is over 10 years and other children almost certainly were born between these two dates. After Bettey's baptism in 1797, Samuel become heavily involved in Non-conformism and possibly no longer took his children to be baptised in the parish church. An exception may have been made for daughter Anne as she was very probably ill, unlikely to live, and Samuel would not have wanted obstacles to her burial at the local church.

Childhood
Mary was baptised in Quethiock church on the 9th November 1790, the daughter of Samuel Treays and Mary Souther, and the granddaughter of Peter and Joan Sharp.
Marriage
On the 20th April 1813, she married John Wood a husbandman of St. Germans who was about one year her junior. For about the first five years of their marriage they lived at Quarry Garden, Quethiock, where her husband worked as a husbandman. They then moved to Tideford, St. Germans, where John continued to work as a husbandman. Sometime in the 1820s, John went to the Plymouth area to see if he could make a living as a carpenter. It is thought that Mary possibly did not join him at first but stayed behind with relatives in the Quethiock area until he had established himself. Certainly by 1829 they were bringing up their family in the Devonport area of Plymouth and John was working as a carpenter. From 1832 onward, and possibly earlier, John described himself as a wood merchant which was the occupation he was to continue with for the rest of his life.
His oldest son Thomas also worked as a timber merchant and it may be that they worked together.
Later Life
John Wood died in East Stonehouse in 1870 aged 78 and Mary died there in 1879 aged 88.
John and Mary's children
- daughter Mary Ann lived only eight days and was buried in Quethiock churchyard on the 24th November 1813.
- son Thomas was baptised in Quethiock on the 22nd August 1814. In 1835 he married Eliza GLANVILLE in Charles Church, Plymouth. Like his father he worked as a timber merchant in East Stonehouse. Eliza died in 1901 aged 85, and Thomas died the following year aged 87. They had a large family : -
- Son Charles born 1836/7.
- Daughter Emma born 1838/9. She married a man called Palmer, and after he died, she is recorded living with her parents in 1891 and 1901.
- Son William born 1842/3. He and his wife Eliza had at least two children, both sons. In the 1881 Census he is recorded as a Pawnbroker and Rate collector living at 67 High Street, East Stonehouse.
- Daughter Elizabeth born 1845/6.
- Daughter Isabella born 1846.
- Son John born 1847/8.
- Son Thomas born 1849/50. He and his wife Elizabeth Ann SLEEMAN had at least four children, two sons and two daughters. In the 1881 Census he is recorded as a Compositor living at 30 Harwell Street, Plymouth St Andrews.
- Son James born 1851/2. He and his wife Charlotte Elizabeth GLANVILLE, possibly his cousin, had at least two children, both sons. In the 1881 Census he was recorded as an Innkeeper living at 22 Cecil Street, Plymouth, St Andrews.
- Son Edward born 1853/4. He and his wife Charlotte Ann BATTEN had at least children, three sons and one daughter. In the 1881 Census he is recorded as a Joiner, H.M. Dockyard, living at 20 Tavistock Street, Stoke Damerel, Devon.
- Daughter Clara born 1855/6 in East Stonehouse, Devon. In 1881 Census unmarried living with parents. Later that year Clara married in Plymouth George Frederick PENWARN, a nurseryman of similar age, born in Lezant Cornwall. His parents appear to have been Richard Penwarn, also a nurseryman, born in Tamerton Foliott Devon around 1828, and Sarah born in Slapton, Devon around 1820. At the time of the 1891 census George, his wife and three children, George aged 8, Ethel aged 6, and William aged 2 months were living at 76 Belgrave Rd., Charles, Plymouth next door to George's parents and his unmarried sister Ann aged 36. In the 1901 census George is living at 14 Belgrave Rd with his wife and children George aged 18, a solicitor's clerk, William aged 10, and a daughter Eliza.
- Son John George WOOD born 1858/9. In 1881 Census unmarried, Railway Clerk, living in Buckland Monachorum, Devon. In 1882, John married Emma Jane CLOOKE in Plymouth. By 1891 John had changed his occupation to a wine merchant's cashier and was living with his wife and two children George John P, aged 8, and Olive Vera M, aged 2, at 5 Lifton Villas, Charles, Plymouth. By 1901 the family had moved to 6 Brook Down Terrace, St Stephen, Saltash, St. Germans, and John had become an Accountant.
- son John was baptised in Quethiock on the 2nd February 1817 and was buried there on the 4th March 1822.
- daughter Mary Ann was baptised in St Germans on the 29th August 1819.
- a possible son William was baptised privately in St Cleer parish on the 17th March 1821 and possibly again in St Cleer church on the 8th April 1821. His father John is described as a carpenter of Plymouth Dock in the first baptism and living at Treneeth in the second baptism. It is thought that about this time, John may have moved to the Plymouth area to find work as a carpenter and that Mary stayed behind with relatives.
- daughter Elizabeth was baptised in the parish of Landrake with St Erney on the 16th September 1821. In 1844 she married George McEwen, a carpenter, and gave birth to a son, George McEwen Junior, the following year. From 1851 onward, she lived with her parents. Her son George is thought to be the George McEwen who married Dinah DODD in Plymouth in November 1878.
- daughter Amelia Alley was baptised in Stoke Damerel on the 4th May 1829.
- daughter Caroline Matilda was baptised in Stoke Damerel on the 4th October 1830.
- son John was baptised in Stoke Damerel on the 7th May 1832. In 1856 he married Elizabeth Ann Edwards in Stoke Damerel. The two children of this marriage found so far were born 8 years apart so it seems possible that there were other children as yet unidentified. John worked as a Joiner in H.M. Services.
- daughter Emma Louisa Wood was born in 1857. in 1875 she married James Bennett, a coastguard, in Stoke Damerel. After their marriage they went to East Budleigh, Devon, where they brought up a family.
- son John Frank Wood was born in 1865 in East Stonehouse, Devon. In the 1881 census he was recorded as a Pupil Teacher aged 16. So far no further research has been carried out on his life.
