Thank you :-) My great-grandfather was a tin miner; left at 16 for a better life and ended up in Manchester. My mother as a child went with her parents to North Cornwall, as did we, and then my children.
My great, great grandfather was a Cornish tin miner who emigrated to New Zealand. I went there for the first time when Elby took me four years ago, and now I am in love with the place.

WHo's the most famous Cornishman at the moment?? oops! It's Sir Paul Myners!
I'm not Cornish but my Mum is and so are loads of cousins and their offspring one of whom was at Wheal Jane to the end.
