Now have the military career of Darell Jago and Darell Robert Jago.
More on the Jago sisters, as well, of Alverne Hill.

Hello treeve,
I have just discovered this fantastic forum, albeit two and a half years late!
You have revealed information about my family, the Jago/Pascoe line that I did not know previously, having only gathered handed down snippets over the years.
My grandfather is John Darell Jago (born in Canada) as mentioned in your last post.
I have to admit that I am waiting with baited breath for information about Darell Jago and Darell Robert Jago's military careers and more on the Jago sisters as well. The sisters were hugely significant to the progress of my grandfather's life I believe. But as he died before I was born, I know some information about his later life, but little about his early years.
If there is anything that you may know, or can share how to obtain such information I would be extremely grateful.
Thank you in anticipation!

Sorry, but I have been held up with some health problems and so on, which are now easing, I have your emails set by, and the information ready to get writing for you. I am glad that you have joined the fray here. Your family has been on my interest lists for some years, and only now coming together. Along the way, I came across a Jago from Marazion, a fisherman, I have the story if you feel there is a connection, I have not yet found one.

Thank you very much for your reply, and I hope that the health problems are indeed easing. I do not think there is a Marazion / fishing connection. However, I could be mistaken! I am under the undertanding that the direct line in long with clergymen and military men, with inherited tenancies passed down. Very much Penwith based, although there is a Trelawney-Jago strand in Menheniot.
I know my grandfather had two marriages / families, each producing a 5-6 children. The first to a woman in Sancreed, called Beatrice. The second to my grandmother, Nora Kathleen, which led to a move to Dartmoor (probably quite a defection as the family had been in Cornwall for centuries). My father and myself being born in Devon.
Any further information that you can provide would be excellent, at your convenience.
