Title: Liskeard parish records
Post by: waltonp on Saturday 05 November 11 13:33 GMT (UK)

Hi
I would like to get the original St Martins parish church records but so far have had no luck in finding them.
I have the Jago transcripts but wish to have access to the orininal so that I can transcribe them and put them on the web!
So far the Cornwall Record Office has no listing for them any offers!

eg search catalgoue
Bishop's transcripts St. Martin, 1676-1772
Parish registers for St. Martin (near Liskeard), 1653-1974

Full results are

the record office does have the originals from 1539 onwards, but usually you can access only the microfiche copies.
