Joseph Trevail married Jane Rundle on 19 Jun 1837, in Luxulyan, Cornwall. The same two surnames in the same small farming community: once again, I'd be more surprised to find no connection between these families.
Joseph Trevail, baptised 24 Jun 1816, at Luxulyan, was the son of John Trevail and Elizabeth [maiden name unknown]. Jane Rundle, baptised 5 Jan 1818, at Luxulyan, was the daughter of Nicholas Rundle and Mary Ann Burn.
At Tregarden Farm, Luxulyan, in 1841, there were Joseph Trevail (25) Farmer, Jane (20), Nicholas (3), Ellen (1), Charles Trevail (20) and Philip Trevail (40). The 1841 census, annoyingly, doesn't give clues to the relationships between household members, but this latter would be exactly the right age to be the Philip Trevail, father of Jane Trevail, mother of Silvanus Trevail.
Joseph and Jane Trevail had at least 12 children:
- Nicholas Rundle Trevail bap. 28 Jan 1838 in Luxulyan
- Ellen Trevail bap. 22 Sep 1839 in Luxulyan
- Mary Ann Burn Trevail bap. 29 Dec 1841 in Luxulyan
- Emma Jane Rundle Trevail bap. 25 Feb 1843 in Luxulyan (nothing further)
- Elfrida Trevail bap. 4 Feb 1845 in Luxulyan (died 1921, see below)
- Joseph Rundle Trevail, born 1847, bap. 21 Jun 1847 in Luxulyan
- Dahlia Trevail born 1849, bap. (as Cordelia) 27 May 1849
- Charles Trevail born 1852 (no birth registration nor baptism)
- Olivia Trevail, born 1854 (per census), bap. 20 May 1855 in Luxulyan
- Nancy Rundell (sic) Trevail born 1855, bap. 20 May 1855 (disappears)

- Jane Rundle Trevail, born March quarter of 1860, bap. 29 Mar 1862
- Hetty Trevail born 23 Apr 1866
- Emily Trevail born 1868 (died 1893, aged 25)
