  • Notes 
    • Francis became Registrar of Court of Peculiar, St Buryan in 1744.

      He inherited Boskenna but wasted much of the family fortune. It is said that he threatened John Wesley with a whip when he was preaching at StBuryanin 1766.
      "Boskenna and the Paynters" page 21-22.
      "The Wesleys in Cornwall" page 15 and 146.
      'Methodism in St Buryan" introduction and page 3 below:-
      Extract from John Wesley's diary, Saturday September 6th, 1766:
      "At eight I preached at Mousehole, a large village south-west from Newlyn. Thence I went to Buryan church, and, as soon as the service wasended,preached near the churchyard to a numerous congregation. Just after I saw a gentleman before me, shaking his whip and vehemently striving tosaysomething. But he was abundantly too warm to say anything intelligibly; so, after walking a while to and fro, he wisely took a horse and rodeaway."
