From Church of England Registers, transcribed by J. Mosman
A note: registers of the parish were transcribed from the originals, some many times, by the vicar or wardens, with copies sent to the Bishop. The films which now exist are of these COPIED books. What the originals possessed is unknown; we have to trust to the persons doing the transcription that they are accurate. The spellings are as given; some are "inspired", so to say. So please be sure to check for variables!
I've tried to be as accurate as possible; however, please do check the originals, as mistakes are quite possible. All notations, whether clear or not, are shown; a "C" probably indicates buried in the Church, and a "P" indicates pauper, buried at Parish expense.

The St. Austell Holy Trinity graveyard was full by 1882, and only a few additional burials were allowed. The Restormel Borough Council has records for the other community graveyards; they will conduct manual searches for a burial, and cross reference to grave records. They also have the records for Campdown, in Charlestown. To reach the Council, go to http://www.restormel.gov.uk.
A very helpful website, containing numerous "antique" medical terms and explanations, is at www.rmhh.co.uk/medical.htm. If you click on Dr. Paul Smith's entry, you can search using the letter codes on the far left. For instance, SCROFULA is tuberculosis of the lymph glands, which appears particularly in young children - and in the 1820's, the Curate started showing cause of death. The website has additional, diverse information, which might help research efforts.
