I've finally had time to review all the Phillips threads, trying to work out where my James Phillips (md Zennor 1718) fits in. Whilst it looks very possible that he is the son of Matthew (married a STEVENS in 1674) I need to find some evidence of this  Does anyone know what baptism records survive for Zennor pre 1712? I hope to visit Cornwall record office in about 3 weeks time and make this my priority. Thanks Mike  |

Hi Londoner, thaks for the info from West Penwith Resources, and also thank you Newlyn re the Morrab library.  I am hoping that these dates accurately reflect their holdings, but from past experience I know what 1600-1963 can mean. Given that the IGI starts from 1713, with I believe a few records from about 1600, I'm expecting to find the same at the Morrab or CRO, namely for example 1590-1600 and 1713-1963. Fingers crossed for the whole of the 17th century. Best wishes Mike  |

I've answered my own question! This is a response from Diane Donohue the OPC for Zennor:
These are the W Treffry Hoblyn transcripts.
He states that the 1st book has been repaired, most of the leaves prior to
1713 have been put onto new parchment leaves, etc contains bapt from 1599 to
1767. marriages 1600-1754 burials since 1600 but most of the entries prior
to 1713 (and I think he means the whole book) with a very few exceptions are
indecipherable caused by damp etc but most from 1713 to 1767 are in better
order.
Bapt.
? Jan 1608 PHILLIP Wm? son of Mathew
10 March 1713 PHILLIPS Henry son of Saml and Jane
? 11 Nov 1715 PHILIPS James son of Saml and Jane
16 Dec 1716 PHILIPS Anne dau of Fran and Elizth.
9 Nov 1718 PHILIPS Anne dau of Saml and Jane
27 Oct 1723 PHILIPS Elizabeth dau of Gabriel and Cath
3 May 1726 PHILIPS Margaret dau of Gabriel and Catherine
This does give you some idea of families. There is obviously a gap between
1608 and 1713 as I am sure that the PHILIPS name must have continued along
these years to some extent.

Hi. I don't know if I am in the right forum but I am looking for Elizabeth Osborne who married Robert Parsons date & place unknown. She is thought to have been the Elizabeth chr. 28/10/1715 at Zennor parents Thomas & Elizabeth Edwards. Any help would be fantastic.
Cheers,
Gary - Australia.

G'day Gary - going to need more information on this one.  At the moment I can find no record anywhere of a Robert Parsons marring anyone named Elizabeth in Cornwall. From FreeBMD the only children baptised to a Robert Parsons with wife Elizabeth in Cornwall between 1730 and 1770 are at St Clether and Trevalga. Can you supply any other information at all about this couple that might help find an answer? CT |
