SO interesting! The background information on Cornwall was very detailed and helpful.
Thought I knew alot about cornish genealogy, but Lesley showed alot more potential research lines.
Very informative – I got ideas about future searches
Packed full of information on Cornwall
Even though I don’t have any Cornish ancestors that I am aware of, I found this a very interesting webinar. Packed full of information and resources.
Thorough and interesting. Leun ha dhe les (in Kernowek!)
Really interesting about ‘other’ records of UK not being duplicated in this Webinar.. Records specific to Cornwall is good to know. And what produced those records.. I have folks from St Just in Penwith coming to NZ in 1860 out of Bristol. (Ship ‘Sir William Miles’.)
Very informative as usual
