Hi
A little bit more info would help.
What sort of dates or era are you working on? What info are you looking for, or more to the point what have you already got - we dont want to duplicate effort.
If you tell us what you have with dates, Christian names etc, and what direction you are hoping to go in, then maybe someone can see what can be found.

My apologies.
I am doing this for a very good friend.
He has traced some to an area in Cornwall called Pawl, but he has family records relating to St Hillary.
He is seeking 1800-1830 as well as more info relating to around 1880-1900.
I will be honest this is second to none. I did not expect someone to answer so quick.
I have asked him for names he already has and will post more when I have it.
Many thanks
PeterY

this map may help you with the parishes

Paul is the other side of Penzance from St Hilary. Have a look at the Cornwall resources on this board, the county is well served for online genealogy. This source doesn't have complete coverage, but plenty of Sedgman entries in the St Hilary area show up.

Hi, Frederick Sedgman, Elizabeth Jane Sedgman and Harriet Hill Sedgman are the children of Michael Sedgman and Mary Hill. I believe the 3 children were born in Saint Hilary. Harriet married a Richard Thomas Gales and they are the parents of my grandmother Marion Alice. Hope this helps. If you want any further info on this line I may be able to help.
