The heraldic achievements of the Trevelyan family reflect claims that they were descended from the only survivor of the destruction of Lyonesse who escaped on the back of a white horse. The Trevelyan's have a white horse rising out of the waves for their arms.Family motto "Tyme Tryeth Troth".Proud to have the surname and live in Cornwall (1 of the 6 Celtic nations)!
