Information

The last Baronet of St Aubyn in Cornwall, Sir John St Aubyn, had 15 illegitimate children by three different women.

This is the grave of the 13th child, Reverend Richard John St Aubyn, who lived in Putney.

Richard’s mother was called Juliana Vinicombe, whom Sir John finally married.

The mother of one of the first two children was ‘an Italian woman’.

The St Aubyns were a prominent Cornish dynasty with two family estates near Crowan and St Michael’s Mount.
