Biography

This profile is part of the Chellew Name Study.

John Chellew was born in Cornwall, England.

John was born about 1667. John Chelew, son of Arthur Chelew, was baptised in October 1667 in Ludgvan, Cornwall, England.^{[1] [2]}

John Chelew married Rebecca (Robena) Baragwannah on 24 November 1691 in Ludgvan, Cornwall, England.^{[3] [4]}

He passed away after 1700.

Research Notes

I believe this John Chelew died in Jul 1720, record found on OPC site, just need to link source.

It is believed that Robena Baragwanath is really Rebecca Baragwannah aka Rebecca Baragwanth who married John Chellew aka John Chelew (Chellew) in 1691.

John's death still must be determined. A search using Cornwall OPC yields the following burials for John Chilew in Ludgvan Parish, between 1691 (his marriage year) and 1767 (when he would have turned 100 years old)

1. 28 July 1720 ^[5]John Chellew
2. 21 October 1732 ^[6]John Chellew
3. 31 August 1743 ^[7]John Chellew

Need to resolve confusion around his son John Chellew, which one is correct? John Chilew or John Chellew?
