Help please to find my 5th and 6th GGrand Uncle's burial place.
« on: Thursday 18 August 22 15:47 BST (UK) »
Looking to find my 5th and 6th G Grand Uncle's burial places. I know that Henry James born 1748 in Paul Cornwall Died in 1792 (according to Geni site) no Graveyard info here. Also , Henry's Father Edward James born 1716 in Paul Died in 1756 no graveyard info . I would appreciate it if anyone could assist me here?. I doubt they moved far from Paul in there lifetimes, all the James Family stayed local. Thank you.

I have looked on the Cornwall OPC site and the Find A Grave site to no avail. It is a mystery to me .

thank you Little Nell for your find . Unfortunately i cannot read the small print on document. I don't think i will learn anymore about Henry and Edward , they go too far back. Best wishes though.

tornado - you can increase the size of the print quite easily!!
Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.

There is not usually much detail in records of that date beyond name, date of burial.  It depends what you are searching for.

But at least you now know that they are buried in the churchyard at Paul.
