Cousin Bernice sent me some page references from the History of the Borough of Liskeard which I had not found in my original perusal of the book.
I do have that book on my sources page for Johannes Vosper (1511-1590), our 11th great grandfather, and some media from it:
It appears that it was online at one point. Yes, still there at https://books.google.com/books?id=y_4VAAAAYAAJ&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false
Here is one of your references: https://www.ancestry.com/mediaui-viewer/tree/47009625/person/6961584721/media/7b38db5a-2367-42f6-8817-4ae31a1efd17

And this one, which is interesting because it shows that he was illiterate, using a Sign for his name:

Dear Teri
Hope you are enjoying the excitement of a visit to the LDS Library.
I wanted to mention a book that I looked at on my last visit, which I haven’t been able to send a copy to you.
While you are in the library you might want to have a look yourself and copy some relevant pages for the Vospers.
Title: History of the Borough of Liskeard
Author: John Allen
Vosper or John Vosper is mentioned in various pages.
The pages I copied are as follows:
Title page with map on facing page.
p.52 – p.59
p.66 – p.67
p.74 - p.77 &
p.88 – 89
The book is located on B2 (International English level) in the book stack at the end of the room against the wall - County Cornwall.
It was quite interesting to browse through the contents.
Enjoy the rest of your stay.
Kind regards
Bernice
