Our interests are in researching our Cornish ancestry or the Cornish diaspora migration members of our Family.

The Cornish migration is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the Cornish people. Over the years, Cornish families have migrated to various parts of the world, leaving behind their unique cultural heritage and traditions.

The Great Cornish migration began in the 18th and 19th centuries, driven by economic factors such as the decline of tin and copper mining industries in Cornwall.

Cornish families can be found in countries like the United States, Canada, Mexico, South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand, among others.

Cornish emigrants maintained their culture and way of life, forming tight-knit communities and preserving their traditions.

The Cornish diaspora continues to celebrate its heritage, with ongoing interest groups, organizations, and festivals that recognize the impact of Cornish migration.

The Cornish diaspora is a rich tapestry of history, culture, and community that continues to thrive and influence the global landscape..
