  Father	John TREVILIAN, Esq.,   b. Est 1489,   d. Abt 1546  (Age ~ 57 years)
  Mother	Avice COCKWORTHIE, [Mother?],   b. Abt 1485,   d. Aft 1551  (Age ~ 67 years)
  Married	Bef 1500
  	Before a Chancery case dated between 1498 and 1500. The Devon Vis, as shown by Vivian, indicates that John and Avice had a second son, Thomas, who lived at Yarnscombe.  However, no son Thomas is mentioned in his will or (so far as I can work out) in his IPM (so far I have only seen one version of the Dorset one, and the omission may be because lands had already been granted to him, as often happened as part of a marriage settlement - but even so I would have expected the lands to descend to Thomas before to his uncle or great uncles or their descendants, should his brother John have died was childless). This is what his John's father's will seems to expect - it only specifies that property should descend to his son Thomas or his brothers if there was no issue of his son John. Thomas left a large family when he died in 1565, so I don't believe he could have been a grandson of John *and Avice) but I wonder if he was John's brother. Seeing the various IPMs may sort this out (none of the 1563 and 1577 IPMs seem to be transcribed in the Trevelyan Papers).

  Family	Mawde HILL,   b. (probably), Houndstone, Brympton d'Evercy, Somerset, England ,   d. Yes, date unknown
  Married	Bef 1552
  	It is not clear that Mawde was the mother of John's children. I am not sure if the jointure being made in 1552 means that John and Mawde had only recently married, or was to update an earlier arrangement due to changes in circumstances.
  Jointure	1 Apr 1552
  	Made after the marriage online here
