there was a mention of a Richard in Devon with a son names John, apparently Richard had a very bad reputation, so as John grew up he left the area to avoid the same,, but that was a long time ago and I was never able to get back to that person to find out more. |

Those in Devon say that it was too far for someone to have travelled up to Bitton. |
