Geography
St
Juliot, (Cornish: Sen
Julet), is situated in the
deanery of Trigg
Major and the Hundred of
Lesnewth. The parish is located on the North Cornwall coast; it
is
bounded on
the north by St Gennys, on the east by Otterham, on
the south by
Davidstow and
Lesnewth, and
on the
west by Minster, Forrabury
and the Bristol
Channel. The
Valency river runs westwards through a steep valley in this
parish to
emerge at
Boscastle. The church, dedicated to St Julitta, was the meeting
place
of the
writer Thomas Hardy and his first wife - Emma Gifford. The
parish was
the inspiration for
Endelstow in 'A Pair of Blue Eyes'.
GENUKI
This makes St Juliot only half a dozen miles from Tintagel.
St Minver is about twelve miles SW of St Juliot, about a mile in
from
the coast
Acknowlegements:
Thanks to Jane OBrien for five generations back of Mary Jose's
parents,
and other background.
Research Notes
FHO has an
Elizabeth Hooper born at Golant 1653, but that is over 20 miles
south
of St Juliot
