I have moved the following you added to the article on Edward Pellew as it is more appropriately located in a separate article about the Sea Scouts. You should consider starting a new article based on your information. Dabbler (talk) 01:17, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Moved from Edward Pellew
In addition, the Sea Cadet Unit at Teignmouth, covering the Teignbridge District Council area of South Devon is known as TS Canonteign Teign Valley Unit 609. This Unit is closely associated to the Pellew family, the current Viscount Exmouth being the Units patron and other members of the family holding other offices within the Charity that runs it. The name Canonteign is taken from the estate in the Teign Valley, which Pellew purchased in 1812 at the same time as “Westcliff house” now Bitton House, today this is owned by Teignmouth Town Council and used as the Town Hall, Canonteign Estate is now a tourist attraction known as “Canonteign Falls” and is open to the public. TS Canonteign drill hall named after the “Indefatigable”, stands within the grounds of Bitton House overlooked by two cannon captured “as prize” by Pellew at the Bombardment of Algiers in 1816, the building is situated close to the River Teign estuary and is therefore between the “Cannon and the Teign”. TS Canontiegn has close links to the Royal Navy's new entrant training establishment known as “Pellew Division” and uses the motto “Pellew’s Pride”. Unit 609 is associated to the Town Church of St. James the Less, Teignmouth which was rebuilt with funds donated by Pellew in 1820 and where he regularly attended services, within the Church yard lies the remains of “Thomas Luny” the famous maritime artist who Pellew commissioned a number of works from. Pellew‘s remains lies within the family vault at the former estate Church of St.James at Christow in the Teign Valley and is remembered by Unit 609 each August on the anniversary of the battle of “Algiers”.
