Future meetings of the group will be held in the Church Hall in Tregony. The first couple of sessions were very well attended and studied Gerrans in the sixteenth to eigthteenth century using the Gerrans Parish Registers and the Domesday Book entries for the area. The April meeting studied elections in Tregony and Grampound before the 1832 Reform Act. We heard about some larger-than-life characters and discovered that the electors exercised more choice than received opinion would have us believe? The May session will examine some aspects of the religious changes affecting our area in the Tudor period. As in previous meetings you’ll be able to work with some original source material. You don’t need any prior knowledge, just an open mind. If you are interested please contact Terry Neill on 01872 530196 or by e-mail on terencemneill@btinternet.com.
