Mostly farmers, farm tenants and farm workers in the villages around Bodmin Moor. Other trades are carpenters, saddlers, journeymen and woodmen. My oldest records show the families to be concentrated in the village of Blisland. This is a pretty village with a village green, a pub and a church. Then the families seem to have moved to Helland where the small churchyard has several old family graves. From here my stem of the family moved into the town of Bodmin. My grandfather was one of 9 children - he was the only boy. he had my father and a daughter. My father had 4 girls and my youngest sister is the last of our line of the Lanxons.
