JOHN KELLAWAY OF CULLOMPTON TREE

John was a very wealthy merchant of the Staple at Calais. He left many records but nothing very definite is known of his parents. He is found most often with the Rockbourne Kellaways and the Stafford Kellaways. One reference to a John son of Hugh, and various property considerations (including land he held in Broadwoodkelly) have led to this tree. His ancestry must be treated as tentative at best.
Agnes Kellaway who married John Drake was often said to be his daughter. However, the dates do not support this and it is far more likely Agnes was his sister as shown here.
