There certainly were Johns here in the 1800s. Not sure if there are any now although there are some in nearby villages - don't know if they'd be related to you or not. Happy to show you round Buckland Brewer if you get in touch nearer to your visit and I'm not away.
Tithecott (spelt several ways even now) and Hembury are in the south of teh parish - about 3 miles from the village itself. There are Johns at Watertown, Buckland Brewer in 1841 but I can't odentfy this now. Ther's a Watertown in the neighboring parish of Landcross but I don't think this is the same. I'm happy to try and meet up when you are here. I shan't know until nearer the time when I will be working that week but I am sure we can sort something out.
