Julian family in cornwall

[Billie Mendav]

I have a Mary Julian in my family tree who was born in Cornwall in 1765, married in 1786 in St Clements Truro to John Menhennet.    Her parents were John Julian and Mary Bohenna.

Has anyone done any work on the Julian / Julien family in Cornwall.    I am particularly interested to know if the family were of Huguenot or French origin.

I have recently found a couple called Julyan on the IGI, John Julyan was born in 1735 in East Newlyn, his father was Tulk Julyan and his mother's name was Honeur.    They sound to me as though they could be French?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

Hi Billie,

I am not a Julyan researcher but just to let you re know this Newlyn East Couple...I have Newlyn East Microfiche and I don't agree with IGI transcript of Tulk and Honeur. This couple have other children in East Newlyn where he is clearly listed as either Frederick or Fidrick. Mother is always Honour. The Entry for John definitely says John son of Fid^k and Honour Julyan baptised March 15 1735. No marriage in Newlyn East but there is a marriage 6 May 1732 St Austell Fred. JULYAN = Honnor DAVY which possibly fits this couple....Kris

Only Julian I have is Jenifer Julian, born 3 April 1803 in Constantine, Cornwall; parents John & Elizabeth. Jenifer married Edward Penrose from St Agnes near Truro on 10 Nov 1824. Not sure if this is of any use to you.

Thanks for your message Brissygal, I will add your Julians to my ever-growing list.    There were a lot of them about, weren't there?    Do you have any rumours in your family that the Julians may have been of Huguenot origin?   I'm not making much headway in my search although the name does appear on Huguenot lists.

Thanks again, any information is appreciated

Billie

No, but will let you know if I hear anything. I've just discovered my Jenifer Julian is probably up the wrong tree.    May have to throw out 10 years of work. Never mind.
Good luck.

Hi

I think Mary Bohenna is my direct descendent through the Julian family. I had no idea there were connections to the French Huguenots but a lot of the Julian family are buried at St Breock Church near Wadebridge in Cornwall.  I would be really interested to hear if anyone else has any further information on the Huguenot connection.
