Lives recorded along Cornwall's coastline. Compiled by P. W. Phillimore, Cornwall Parish Registers: Marriages (Volume I) presents parish marriage records from town and rural parishes across Cornwall in a clear, reference-friendly form. As part of the philimore parish series, this volume functions as both a practical genealogy sourcebook and an ancestry research tool, offering primary material for british family history and cornish heritage research. Those searching for cornwall church marriages or piecing together family lines in nineteenth century England will find names, dates and places recorded with archival fidelity, turning dispersed registers into usable evidence for family trees, local studies and surname projects. The entries link naturally to census returns, probate records and local newspapers, enabling cross-referencing that deepens any inquiry, whether a single curiosity or a sustained surname study. For historians the book reveals daily life: Victorian era records such as these show marriage conventions, mobility, occupations and community bonds. The historical parish registers collected here are not mere lists; they are a vital records collection that supports demographic study, social biography and the work of local history enthusiasts and amateur genealogists alike. This material complements the holdings of parish societies and county repositories, and it informs wider Cornish studies and research into nineteenth-century England, where parish ritual and civil registration together shaped family experience. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Its thoughtful presentation and durable format make consultation straightforward for casual readers, while classic-literature collectors and reference librarians will recognise its long-term value to research shelves and private libraries. A welcome acquisition for county record offices, family-history groups, scholars and anyone who prizes tangible links to Cornish heritage and beyond.
