Résumé du livre
The Chenoweth family originated in Wales but lived for centuries in Cornwall, England. The family originally carried the name Trevelisek but changed their name between 890 and 1020 when one of the sons was given land and built a new house. Cornish for "new house" is Chynoweth. John Chenoweth (1682-1746) was born in Cornwall and immigrated to A merica in about 1715. He and his wife, Mary Calvert, settled in Maryland where they were the parents of eight children. Their many descendants live throughout the United States.
