If you look in this website, Geoff, there is interesting information (including links to certain census):- www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/Cornwall/Withiel The parish of Withiel is in the Bodmin Registration District. If I were you, to confirm the names of his parents, I would send for the birth certificate for William Julyan, as you know his exact date of birth, from the Superintendent Registrar at the Register Office in Bodmin, the address for whom I have found is:- 'Lyndhurst' 66 Nicholas Street Bodmin Cornwall PL31 2AG telephone: 01208 73677. Nine times out of ten, that is the method that I use for obtaining birth and death certificates. I would be happy to give you the wording that I use in my letter accompanying my cheque for £7 to the Superintendent Registrar, if you would like that. Joy

By the way, I have just seen this website of Cornish surnames (on a rootsweb Cornish mailing list) http://freepages.history.rootsweb*.*com/~kernow/names_a.htm (please delete asterisk) Julyan / Julian is said to be a Romano-Celtic surname. Joy
