This article has been rated as Low-importance on the project's importance scale.

See drop-down box for suggested article edit guidelines:

Be bold - if you know something about Cornwall then put it in! We value your contributions and don't be afraid if your spelling isn't great as there are plenty of spelling and grammar experts on clean-up duty!
Articles on settlements in Cornwall should be written using the standard set of headings approved by the UK geography WikiProject's guideline How to write about settlements.
At WikiProject Cornwall we subscribe to the policies laid down by Wikipedia - particularly civility and consensus building. We are aware that the wording on Cornish entries can sometimes be a contentious topic, especially those concerning geography. You don't have to agree with everything but there is no excuse for rudeness and these things are best solved through consensus building and compromise. For more information see WP:CornwallGuideline.
These pages are not platforms for political discussion. Issues relating to Cornish politics should be restricted to those pages that directly deal with these issues (such as Constitutional status of Cornwall, Cornish nationalism, etc) and should not overflow into other articles.
Most of all have fun editing - that's the reason we all do this, right?!

Malachy Hitchens

Anyone know anything more about Rev. Malachy Hitchens?

West Briton, Jan 3 1840 "Death of Davies Gilbert Esq." - quotation:"His preliminary education was conducted at home; and at a very early age he contracted an intimacy, which continued until death, with the Rev. Malachy Hitchens, vicar of St. Hilary, a gentleman of high and well-deserved celebrity as a mathematician and astronomer, and as editor of the Nautical Almanack."

His widow, Joanne, was buried 18 July 1815 Source: Online Parish Clerk Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 20:08, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A swift google indicates he was also vicar of Gwinear, not much more yet but will keep eyes open for you. DuncanHill (talk) 20:10, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Born Gwennap, 1741. "He was collated to St. Hilary in 1775, and Gwinear in 1785, and held those benefices till his death in 1809". Source:Ellery genealogy page.

Father Bernard Walke

Looks like he deserves an entry. The row over the "papist" ornaments and practices was in 1932 Walke was an early radio broadcaster and also a peace campaigner. Vernon White ^{. . . Talk} 13:25, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And wrote Twenty Years at St Hilary, a minor classic. DuncanHill (talk) 13:35, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Both Bernard and Annie Walke now have articles.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 13:15, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Briefness of article

Even for such a small settlement the information provided seems inadequate though the infobox is o.k.--Felix Folio Secundus (talk) 23:41, 8 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
