When I was in Cornwall in 2009 I visited the parish church at Altarnun (where the Northey family lived for some generations) and noticed that there was a small memorial to the then curate of the church who had remained Royalist through the Cromwellian period.  Part of the church dated to the 1100's I believe.  My 3rd great-grandmother Elizabeth Northey Box (1762-1810) was christened in that parish.  She is buried at North Petherwin with her husband John Box and a number of Box relatives and in-laws.
