Parish Registers do not exist at St. Paternus, South Petherwin, before 1656. The children of the imprisoned Sir John Eliot were staying at Trebursey, the house of their grandfather (Richard Gedy), at the time of Thomas Eliot's death. Presumably, he was buried at St. Paternus, as it is the obvious burial place of the Gedy family. It is known that Richard Gedy was buried (also presumably at South Petherwin) beside his parents and some of his children, so it is likely that this young grandson was buried there as well.
