• Notes

  Robert and Joan Channon, the parents of Bernard's second wife, Mary Channon owned two fishing boats and various leased on building and lands in Sidmouth. They were probably related to the Channon Visitation family of Talaton, as the latter were of Sidmouth prior to 1547. In an Exeter Consistory Court case of 25 June 1566, Mr. Walter Rawligh, Rector of Sidmouth, sued Robert Channon and Richard Gesse for the parish tithes on fish caught "out to sea by the defendants or their servants." One may speculate that the Channons were among the Devonshire mariners who were fishing off the coasts of Newfoundland and New England well before 1600. On 9 October Barnard Hore, William Pin and William Slade, made the inventory of the estate of his father-in-law. Robert Channon in his undated will, proven at the Archdeaconry of Exeter 30 October 1613 maned his son william Channon, to have the boat called Handmaiden "as she cometh straight from the sea," and "the house thereto belonging"; Tobias Jenynges, "my daughter Catherine's son, "to have the fee simple of a house and courtlidge, and Robert, "son of my deceased son Charles Channon, "to have all lands and reversions except the house mentioned above, and wife Joan, to have all the rents during her life, plus all residue of the estate. Witnesses were Ral. Manwaringe, clarke, William Channon and William Hardie.
