Here is one that was not mentioned in the recent discussion of "C" in burial records. Have a look at this St. Blazey baptismal record: https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-267-11049-202569-17 Several of the entries have a "P" in the margin. What does it mean? My best guess thus far is that it meant "parishoner". This is based on the remark added to the third entry on the left-hand page: "admitted into Church March 29th 1845". But this is just a guess. Does anyone have a solid meaning for this "P"?

A couple of them have a note that they were dmitted into church at a later date so I think it means it was a private baptism.   Joy  ________________________________ From: Wesley Johnston <[email protected]> To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, 15 January 2013, 12:07 Subject: [CORNISH-GEN] "P" notation in baptismal record Here is one that was not mentioned in the recent discussion of "C" in burial records.
