The parish of

CORNELLY

Cornelly is a small rural parish and you will not find a village of that name! The church of St Cornelius is tucked away down a lane off a by-road between Probus and Tregony. Until 1973 the church was under the care of the Vicar of Probus but this duty has now switched to Tregony-with-Cuby.

The Online Parish Clerk (Genealogy) for Cornelly is Lorraine Beard, who can be contacted by Email.
