Deb, I just found a baptism for a Defiance Penfold....but tis daughter of Robert & Louisa....Truro St Mary's .....22 Sep 1872 

Sorry if you already had this one....but I can't remember everything from the other thread..... 

I also found the inscription on a gravestone for a Christopher Penfold but he was too young to be the son of Thomas and Sophia.

In the Truro Cemetery Ref 1171 Christopher PENFOLD 17 Apr 1959 Age 58
