A question from a friend
« on: Thursday 01 February 07 07:59 GMT (UK) »
I received an email from a friend the other day - she's not a member of this site yet.  But she's asked me to ask :-

Can you ask if anyone was interested in The "Profitt & Brenton" families.. in Cornwall.
OR, if you see anyone asking about those 2 families can you let me know..or Mably's  or Kents..all Cornwall, around St Minver area.


Many thanks

Dear Donna
I have a number of Monumental Inscriptions for St Minver Churchyard - not the entire churchyard - but a number of them are for the name Mabley. I did not come across any for Profitt but I did not do the whole cemetery
If your friend is interested let me know and I will send them to you.

Hi dvcas1,

A big welcome to RootsChat and the Cornwall Board.

I have Padstow PR's on Microfiche. Here is Williams Baptism. If you require any other Padstow records I would be happy to try to find them for you.  ;D

William James BRENTON was baptised 22 Oct 1854 Padstow parents James Nicholas and Selina Brenton - father Shipwright of Padstow

Cheers Kris  :D
