Front of Register has the following info:
NB. Transcriber notes: At top of some register pages it has that baptisms are in Gwennap chapels, others it has Gwennap, Ponsonooth, Frogpool & St Day Chapels but does not stipulate which specific ones were at the previous named chapels. Hence I have written "Gwennap Chapels"
