Cornwall Parish Registers Marriages (Volume Xiii)

Cornwall Parish Registers Marriages (Volume XIII) opens a direct line to nineteenth century Cornwall’s recorded unions. Records that reconnect family lines. Clear, faithful transcriptions of historical parish registers, compiled by P. W. Phillimore as part of the philimore parish register series, make this marriage record collection an essential resource for anyone working with Victorian marriage documentation. A go-to source for cornwall parish marriage records, it draws on UK church records and English county archives to place names, dates, parishes and witnesses in context. Entries are presented so that they can be compared with census returns, civil registration and probate sources, giving family history research a verifiable backbone rather than a loose impression. As a British genealogy reference it serves hobbyists and professional investigators alike; its role as a genealogists resource book and an ancestry tracing guide is to reduce the time spent seeking origin parishes, to reveal local networks, and to confirm relationships across remote coastal communities and market towns. The parish-by-parish arrangement and consistent presentation speed cross-referencing with census and electoral rolls, aiding reconstruction of household and kinship patterns through the Victorian decades. The volume complements adjacent titles in the philimore parish register series and sits naturally alongside material held in English county archives and local studies collections.Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today’s and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector’s item and a cultural treasure. The historical significance of these parish entries extends beyond names and dates: they document social rituals, legal obligation and local custom during the Victorian era, and they supply the kind of primary evidence that underpins scholarly work in nineteenth century Cornwall. Perfect for casual readers exploring local history, invaluable to family historians, and attractive to classic-literature collectors assembling heritage libraries, this edition honours the original while making the material accessible for present and future enquiry. Well suited to both shelf reference and careful study, it rewards those tracing ancestry as surely as it pleases collectors of British local history.
