I am guessing the tribe you knew cashy lived on Dowry street, their name was Tregartha, not Tregurtha. They were Ronnie and Edna, and had a few sons and daughters, Norman, Rowland, Sheila, Ann and some more. They are distant relations to the Tregurtha's, we think many years ago when the records were hand written some one didn't finish the "a" off at the top so it looked like a "u" and from then on that branch was Tregurtha.
Norman changed his surname to Blight after his mother's maiden name, she was from Plymouth also.
The two families are related through the great grandfather so the mistake must have happened from him onwards.
