HI, My name is Marion & my husband & I are visiting Cornwall at the end April, beg May this year. This trip is to undertake family research as well. I am seeking the grave of my gggrandfather, Matthew Paul Moyle and any members of the family – Hornblower, other Moyle ancestors. I am wondering if you are able to advise just where the graves are situated and is it possible for us to walk the cemetery and look at and photograph these graves. This will allow me to feel close to them and just know where they lived and are now buried.
Thank you in advance and so many thanks for any assistance you may be able to offer.
Kind regards
Marion
Marion, I did reply to your previous message! I am afraid that I was just visiting Helston whilst on holiday when I took these photos so I really can’t help you much. What I can tell you is that there is no problem gaining entry to the churchyard and photographing any of the headstones there. Get in touch with the local history society who I’m sure will be happy to offer you advice. Also find out who holds the Parish records so that you can arrange to see the registers on your visit (they may be available online anyway). Good luck and I hope you enjoy your trip.
Looking for info on grave marker for Winifred Richardson. (Nee James). Formerly of Wendron street in Helston.
Thank you for these beautiful photos – my cousin was buried here with others when his Lancaster was shot down over the Lizard in 1942 – at that time i was one year old and have a card from him saying with love from Fly away Jack – he was only 21.
The graves are well looked after and now i live in Cornwall i can visit them.
