Hi there,
if by chance someone were to call upon Kenwyn Churchyard with a camera in hand would they be kind enough to look for (unfortunately i do not know the plot number)and take some photos of a few gravestones of my realtives that are buried there.
Edwin Holman died 17.03.1905 age 52
Ellen Holman died 02.07.1860 buried 08.07.1860 aged 19
Julia Holman died / buried 19 APril 1860 aged 16 or 17
John Holman (Captain) 1808-1875 (8th or 13th April 1875)
Amelia Holman (nee Pascoe) circa 1813-1893 died 09.01.1893 aged 79
Thomas Holman buried 21 May 1813 Kenwyn aged 83
John Holman 1721-1808
Lucy Holman (nee Brewer) died Q4 1844, (possibly buried at Kea rather than Kenwyn)
John Holman 1790-1876 buried 09 Nov 1876
Samuel Holman 1818-1878 aged 59 died 29 Jan 1878 buried 02 Feb 1878 - sole person in grave
Elisha Holman 1829-1908 - am unsure of place of burial died Q4 1908 aged 78
there is quite a few i realise that but i would be happy to recive photos of any rather than all of the above, also any other Holmans that are not listed above but are buried at Kenwyn as i do not have all the dates for all of the Holman burials in my tree.
thank you :-*

Hi Toni
My parents live about 2 miles away from Kenwyn...so next time I visit them I will pop down to the churchyard and take your pics!
Will probably be next weekend if the weather is nice!

Hi there, stumbled across your messages and was wondering if you had come across any graves of the May family? Am particularly trying to unpuzzle two Francis May's born 1680 & 1884, both of Kea and one most likely buried in Kea who was married to Jane Tresize. The other was from Gwennap and is buried there also. I really need to discern the Francis Mays who died around 1740-1790 time range in order to research any further. I would be extremely gratefull for any help with this little issue if anyone can help?
