Penzance Cemetery Proprietors Registry Book 1845 1906
« on: Sunday 20 September 15 18:05 BST (UK) »
I have seen that there was a CD c.2005 which had the transcripts for the Private Burial Ground in Heamoor.

Apparently it contains:
Proprietors Registry Book which has the Registry of the name of the Proprietors; a Plan of the Ground; the Registry of Certificates for allotment of Ground, also all the Interments in the Ground.

I've been looking to purchase this but I can't find a link anywhere

Can anyone help?

Maybe Cornwall Records Office can help you.  I searched their Catalogue and this seems to be the beast:

Their document ref number: FS/3/1634

They seem to have a facsimile .... so they might know who has the CD you're on about. They mention in there Peter Doe, who seems to have done all the visiting/checking/updating in 2005.
