Thank you Mary - this is a great site. I have bookmarked it. I found Peter's sister Ann, brother John, and the marriage for his parents, but nothing for Peter. I did a search under his mother and father's name in case he had another first name - but there was nothing for him. Perhaps he was baptised outside of Cornwall. I appreciate your help.
