If you register with

http://www.familyhistoryonline.net/

which is where family history societies are putting further records (the Federation of Family History Societies website). You can look for free at the index for Carnarton of Cornish records placed there by the Cornwall FHS - burials, baptisms and censuses - which is how I know a Charles Carnarton married in Cornwall in 1823 (not on the IGI). If you pay a nominal fee you can see the outline of the actual record (the sort of detail you get on the IGI).

If Margery Carnartons will move conveniently to Mary Carnartons life would be simpler. There is on the Cornwall marriage index a marriage of a Margery Carnarton in 1827.

Parish Kenwyn Thomas EMIDY Date 16 Aug 1827 Wife Margery CARNARTON

Now this is where it starts to get very very interesting. Emidy is surprise surprise an exceedingly rare surname.
