Protestation Returns 1641-2 - St Issey images online anywhere ?

[hatofthecat]

Does anyone know if there are any images online anywhere of the Protestation Returns 1641-2 for the parish of St Issey ?

I understand that in Cornwall many people wrote their own names down and I have two direct ancestors, a father & son plus two more brothers on the St Issey return according to the excellent Cornwall Online Parish Clerks database.

Failing that has anyone ever ordered a copy of similar from the House of Commons Archive

http://www.parliament.uk/business/publications/parliamentary-archives/archives-highlights/familyhistory/sources/protestations/

and know how easy it is/not & cost ?

cheers, Pete

Doesn't seem too bad

I emailed the archive yesterday to see about getting colour digital images as I also need some for "up North" (Gateshead, which runs to four large sheets apparently  ).  Will post an update of how I get on in case anyone else is looking for other parishes.

Just got colour images of the returns in my inbox  Only a few days turnaround and nice quality images.  Can recommend the friendly service from the Parliamentary Archives 

Looking down the page I can see my 4 names including for one of them where they got first name wrong and had to score it out and correct it.  All in a scribe's hand it seems, some places they wrote their own names apparently.
