Francis Jago Arundell

Francis Vyvyan Jago was born at Launceston, in July 1780, being the only son of Thomas Jago. (He afterwards adopted the additional surname of "Arundell".) From youth to old age Jago was imbued with a love of antiquarian study, and after his institution in 1805 to the rectory of Landulph he threw himself with avidity into the history of Cornwall. In the church of Landulph is a brass to the memory of Theodore Paleologus, descended from the last of the Christian emperors of Greece, who died on 21 January 1637, and an account of this inscription, and of the person whom it commemorated, was printed by Jago in the volume of the '' Archæologia'' for 1817, and reprinted in Davies Gilbert's ''Cornwall'' (iii, 365). This paper was afterwards amplified into ''Some Notice of the Church of Landulph,'' which was published in 1840, and a reprint of which, with additions by Joseph Polsue of Bodmin, was announced some years ago (i.e. before 1885).
