------------------------------

According The Visitations of the County of Cornwall (Hill of Truro and Constantine, p. 230), which in turn cites the somewhat sketchy History of Cornwall (1817-20) by C. S. Gilbert, Jane Penneck Robinson married Peter Hill, son of William Hill of Carwythenick and Catherine Tremenheere. However, this is impossible, as the Helston Parish Register shows that Jane married Peter Hill in 1789, the same year as William Hill Esq. married Catherine Tremenheere in Madron with Penzance. Since Peter Hill died in 1818 aged 65 years according to the burial record, it is evident that Jane married Peter Hill the brother rather than the son of William. In fact, there does does not seem to be any record of William and Catherine having a son Peter.

   Marriage Information:
