I am fairly sure this name Jeavons is a name which features in several articles inthe BMSGH Journal if anyone is interested- a few years back now probably. Not sure which area- I just remember the name for some reason

Very many thanks, NL, for all of this info about the Jeavons. I never realized it was from juvenis - amazing! I've got some of my own, I know there are loads in the Black Country, it's a real "local name", but I wonder if anybody has any links with any of these or can add / correct (especially correct!...) anything?
