TREMLETT Robert Blacksmith 1773 Robert Tremlett, born circa 1773 in Devon, England. Although born in Devon I do not know where, or when he died. Robert’s son, also Robert, was born here in Silverton in c1832, was still alive and working here in Silverton in 1901. His son Sydney was born here in 1861, and he was later also landlord of the Three Tuns Inn, where he also ran his blacksmith’s business while his father continued his trade in Tiverton Road. Sydney’s son Archie, the last Silverton blacksmith, although born at The Three Tuns, worked from his grandfather’s blacksmith’s in Tiverton Road, Silverton. I suspect that the other Tremlett’s that have been included on the website are related, as it is a fairly common name in the area. One point, I am not related to this family, although I do remember Archie who was still alive when I came to the village 35 years ago. My interest is purely with the history of Silverton..

His daughter Valerie say "my knowledge is a bit vague im afraid but it must have been about the late 1920s. At the time Reginald lived at Devon Great Consols Lamerton. We however shifted to quite a few moorland villages as the work dried up. When the horse was supplanted by the tractor he went to work at Devonport dockyard and was sent to Gibraltar just after WW2. He also served so I believe as a farrier in the N/Devon Hussars" Reginald is also listed in the Wheelwrights, Ironworkers, Farriers & Military Indexes.. Contact Valerie
