PATRONYMICA

TRANNACK. See Trenaco.

TRATHAN. From Tretane in St. Kew; from tre-tan, the under town. Hence, by corruption, Frathan.

TREAGO. Hals says this name was anciently De Treago, from Tre-ago, or Tre-agho, in Crantock; and he gives an absurd etymology. The name is probably from Tre-Iago, the dwelling of Iago, or James. See Jago.

TREAGUS. See Tregoz.

TREAIS, TREASE, TREAYS, TREICE, TREISE, TRESE. Hals says, "In the parish of Blisland, somewhere liveth Trese, Gent. The name Tres or Treas is Corn.-Brit., and signifies 'the third', and was a name taken up in memory of the third so or person of the family from whence he was descended, and is derived from the same Japhetical origin as τριτος, tertius, 'the third,' as the Latin tres; and Treas is also the third in the Scotch and Irish tongues"! The name is probably from tre-yz, the place of corn. The manor of St. Gennis was for some times the property of Treise, and Trenant was at one times the possession of Sir Christopher Treise. Lysons says the manor of Tremayne in East hundred belonged to the family of Treise, whose heiress brought it to that of Morshead; and, says D. Gilbert, it has since passed by sale to Mr. John Joliffe.

TREASURE. See Tresahar.
