About

"The Parochial History of Cornwall, Volume 3 (of 4)" by Davies Gilbert et al. is a historical account written in the early 19th century. This volume primarily focuses on the parishes of Cornwall, detailing their histories, notable landmarks, and notable individuals associated with each parish. It serves as an extensive documentation of local governance, church establishments, and land ownership over the centuries. The opening of this volume sets the stage by discussing specific parishes such as Lanwhitton, Lelant, and Leskeard, outlining their geographic boundaries, historical significance, and economic data. It references lost manuscripts and touches upon the ecclesiastical hierarchy, land values, and notable families linked to these areas. The text is rich in historical references, anecdotes, and geographical insights, which provides readers a glimpse into the life and development of Cornwall’s regions as they would have been known in the 19th century.
