STAFFORD/STOWFORD/KELLAWAYS OF DOLTON AND DOWLAND

STAFFORD/KELLAWAY Family Tree

The History of STAFFORD BARTON
Kellaway Crest


With Dolton, Dowland, Iddesleigh, Roborough, Bideford and Ottery St Mary

Arms: Argent two glaziers nippers in saltire between four pears or - This is identical to the Kellaway/Callaway Arms

"Thomas son of William gave his younger son Philip, Stoford in Dolton late in the reign of Henry III (1216-1272)." Risdon's "Survey of Devon"


The STOWFORD/STAFFORD KELLAWAYS

The Kellaway family who went to Stowford and Stafford Barton were originally Kellaway and this name seems to have held in the main Family until about 1450 with a few exceptions. At that time one group returned to Ottery St Mary and continued to use the name STOFORD. One family went to Iddesleigh and used STOFORD/STAFFORD and the family at Dolton gradually became STAFFORD. It is at present believed that John of Cullompton descends from this tree but his branch kept the Kellaway name. It is very speculative at present. By the time we begin to pick them up in Parish registers we already have:
