The third Baronet was a clergyman and one of the Seven Bishops imprisoned by James II. The fourth Baronet represented West Looe, Liskeard and East Looe
Petroc Trelawny was detained until a court sat to decide the outcome. He was released after a few days. In 2014, on the news that the Cornish were to be recognised as a national minority, Trelawny wrote in the "Daily Telegraph": "Abroad, when I explain where I am from, the inevitable response is: 'So you are English.' 'No,' I reply, 'Cornish.' I’ll accept British, or European, but being described as English is something that rankles with most Cornishmen."
