This transcript of the Bodmin BTs was made by W. Treffry Hoblyn in 1931 to fill the gap in his transcript of the Baptism and Burial Registers. With thanks to George Pritchard for access to the transcript which is contained in an exercise book in the Morrab Library, Penzance.

This is a transcript done by one person and will, inevitably contain errors. Researchers are always advised to consult the original registers.

There seems to be a section missing in Hoblyn's transcript here. It is not that it has become lost, because the ones before and after are two sides of the same page, but possibly an error when he made a fair copy. Normally he would report if the years were missing or empty.
