Hi all

I'm new to the list and not really sure it's the one I want, but I couldn't
seem to see one closer to 'home'. Is there anyone who can tell me which is
the best list for records relating to the Penryn/Falmouth area?

In case there's someone on the list with similar interests, my gg
grandparents were William and Elisabeth Reynolds (nee Andrew). They were
married on 13 October (or possibly September) 1839 in St Gluvias, aged 19 &
18. They must then have hot-footed it to Plymouth where they took the Java
to South Australia as bounty emigrants (it left London on 12 October and
Plymouth on 29 October 1839). William's application for passage gives his
address as Penryn and occupation as Mason. I'd love to find birth records
for William and Elisabeth and details of their parents, if anyone can point
me in the right direction.

Cheers
