The registration of births, deaths and marriages started in England and Wales in 1837. The list below is taken from the index at the General Register Office and is an attempt to identify all entries for Goninan (however spelt) from 1837 to 1901.
100% accuracy is not guaranteed and there could be some entries missed.
Other information has been added to the basic index entry where this is available

| notes | ||||
| 1 | entries relate
to the Goninan surname only, i.e. it does not include the
families of married Goninan daughters - more research needs to be done to complete the picture |
|||
| 2 | the
registration district covers a number of towns and
villages. For example, Camborne, Gwithian and Gwinear came under Redruth. Similarly, St Just came under Penzance |
|||
| 3 | the
registration index is in quarters thus 'qtr' indicates
the quarter ending with that month; e.g quarter ended Sept. means the event was registered in July, August or September |
|||
| 4 | b = birth.....m = marriage......d = death | |||
| 5 | additional information has been added:- | |||
| a) where the identity of the individual is fairly certain, the parents are shown | ||||
| b) if the
spelling of the surname recorded was not Goninan, then
this is noted - there was clearly a lot of confusion amongst Registrars as to how to spell the name |
||||
| c) where other detail is known (eg date of birth, place of marriage) this is included | ||||
| 6 | bpt = baptised and brd = buried | |||
| 7 | br- this shows
the family branch to which the individual belongs - G=
Gwithian, H= Helston, S= St Just and P= Perranuthnoe |
