Sir John Seneschall

ARCLEW, the principal residence in this parish, called the Barton of Carclew in old descriptions, and in the estate of which is now in- cluded the manor of Restronguet and the manor of Casawse, situated partly in Mylor and partly in St. Gluvias, has a somewhat complicated and intricate history. Tonkin's account of Mylor, given at p. 20, says a good deal about Carclew. It will be necessary here to give only a few extracts. He says : "The Barton of Carclew anciently Crucglew and Cruc- clew (from Cruc, Crug, a barrow, and Clu, Cluth, a ditch or fence), the enclosures by the barrows, of which there are several in the adjoining com- mons." "The first owner of this place that I meet with (Herald's Office) is Dangeros or D'Angers, who married Margery the daughter of Bartholomew Seneschall." " He flourished as I guess in the reign of Henry II (11 54)." It next came to David Renaudin, who married Margaret, daughter of James Dangers.
