Hello Carole, You would do well to order LDS Film #1849636. This is W.L. Bawden's transcripts of several Cornwall parish church registers, including Illogan baptisms, marriages, and burials from 1539 to 1845. Mr. Bawden's transcripts are very accurate and the parish registers were cross-checked with the Bishop's Transcripts and any variations noted. In addition, the transcripts are indexed making research pretty straight forward. I have the film at my local FHC and can do a lookup if you wish, but, if you prefer to do your own research, I recommend your ordering the film. Besides Illogan, this film includes several other parishes including the adjacent parish of Redruth. I will be at my local FHC next Tuesday if you want me to do a lookup. Regards, Joe Trewhella Godfrey, Illinois
Joe, thank you for your kind and generous offer! The film number is the one I did look at and got the information I posted to the list. Basically, that is all of the info I have and copied the Polkinghorne info just in case I run into anything else. Not finding anything else on the Kemp line, I don't know where to look next. Right now am involved in my German line and I am doing a parish by parish search, which I will try for the Kemp line shortly. Thanks again.

Joe, just had another thought. Do you have any recommendations on other sites or places I can search?
