Doors open at 2.00pm for a 2.30pm start unless otherwise stated The group has been very busy since the last report. The visit from the Cober Valley Accordion Band sadly was slightly down on attendance as we had a number of members out of action. Jo, our leader, was finally admitted to hospital for her surgery (and I am pleased to report is improving slowly) . We are anxious to see her back in charge. Other members had holiday commitments or visitors but we enjoyed a really super afternoon with a good sing-a -long. The proceeds of the Raffle and Bring and Buy were donated to Lindseys sponsored swim. Our official August meeting was a mini bus trip professionally organised by Geoff - a return visit to Fistral Bay Hotel, Newquay for a delicious cream tea. We were treated like landed gentry and enjoyed a taste of gracious living. The September meeting will be our Harvest Auction with Ernie as Auctioneer. We are breaking with tradition slightly as we intend to start with a Harvest Lunch instead of afternoon tea. That meeting will start earlier at 12 Noon for 12.30pm. The Mini Bus has been busy if not always completely filled. The Afternoon Tea at the Old Rectory, St Clements, was delightful. We all took our sun hats and some sat outside while others took to the shade inside. We then strolled round the lovely garden - absolutely idyllic. Our next trip was to Griggs Farm Shop which we all enjoyed and we have more outings in the pipe line - watch this space! We are planning a sale of good Bric-a-Brac at the Community Center on September 14th - donations welcome to support our outings. The Silver Circle stall at the Fun Day was successful and we thank Carol an Geoff for their efforts in raising over £60. As mentioned, the next meeting is Harvest Lunch & Auction followed in October by a Fish & Chip Lunch. Again NOTE THE TIME CHANGES to 12 Noon for 12.30pm start. Our love of good food is once again apparent in this report and looks to be continuing in the future. Do come and join us as you will have a great time. All residents (aged 55 or over) are welcome to join the Silver Circle For more information ring Jo Collins - 01872 321599 or Margaret Simmonds - 01872 241671 Lindsey's Sponsored 2.25 mile Thames Swim We are delighted to report that the swim was completed on 20th July in 2hr 33mins 54secs. The sum raised in Tony Simmons' memory has reached £1,000 (and still rising) for Cancer Research. Sincere and grateful thanks to all who donated, the members of the Silver Circle, the patrons of the Clock and Key and the generous residents of the village. Thank you all.

  • Study 4978 Cornwall Online Census Project, 1891
    Study 4978 Cornwall OnLine Census Project, 1891 This document was supplied by the depositor and has been modified by AHDS History Introduction THIS STUDY contains our [Cornwall Online Census Project] transcript of the 1891 census returns for Cornwall. It has been transcribed, checked and validated by the volunteers of the Cornwall Online Census Project, the Cornish arm of the Free Census project. The original records are held by The National Archives and this transcription is done with their permission. Image copies of the original returns can be viewed on film, fiche or CDROM from commercial suppliers and at many research facilities around the world. This study contains a full transcription of the 1891 census returns for Cornwall—a snapshot of the people and places of Cornwall on the night of April 5th, 1891. The file names are the PRO piece number code (without punctuation). About UK Census Returns About Free Census (FreeCEN) was started early in 2000 with a pilot project for the 1891 census returns for Devon. The aim of Free Census is to transcribe all the UK 19th century census returns. It is part of FreeUKGEN and is a sister project to FreeBMD and FreeREG. The intention is that all three of the UK primary sources for the family historian will be online and “free to view.” Six months after the Devon project started, the Cornwall 1891 commenced. Most English and Welsh counties are now covered for the 1891, with the Scottish projects concentrating on the 1841. There are several English 1861 projects, using commercially produced discs and two English 1841 projects, including Cornwall.

  • Population Change in Cornwall 1951-2001
    Population change in Cornwall 1951-2001 1951-61 At mid-century Cornwall seemed to have resumed the pattern familiar from the 1860s. Overall, there was another slight absolute drop in population in the 1950s. Several parishes in rural east Cornwall lost more than 10% of their population. Things were different in mid-Cornwall where the growth of Newquay was maintained and here more parishes gained than lost people. Population growth was particularly striking in some rural parishes near Truro – in Probus, Ruanlanihorne, Kea and St Just in Roseland. Meanwhile, boosted by cold war military spending, Helston grew quickly. But in west Penwith, like east Cornwall, the picture was reminiscent of the second half of the nineteenth century, with widespread population falls. Cornwall seemed irrevocably locked into population decline, so much so that the County Council planners in 1952 forecast that population would only grow slowly, if at all, to 1971, as net out-migration and an ageing population structure combined to produce a sustainable steady-state population regime. But events were soon to prove them hopelessly wrong. 1961-71 During the 1960s a fundamental shift occurred in the demographic regime, the first major turning point since the 1860s. From a state of population stability Cornwall was now set to experience a state of population growth. And not just growth, but major growth. Population rose in the 1960s at a rate of 11.5%, something not seen since the 1830s. And this was to prove to be no temporary phenomenon. It was followed by further growth of 9.2% in the 1970s, 12.3% in the 1980s and 7.0% in the 1990s.

  • Celtic Cornwall … Exploring Identity
    Celtic Cornwall (Exploring Identity) By Chris Dunkerley - Cornish Bard (Kevrenor), CyC Associate of the Institute of Cornish Studies, Cornish rep. to Celtic Council Of Australia (in NSW) Hon. Secretary of the Cornish Association of NSW INTRODUCTION CELTIC? CORNWALL? SOME ELEMENTS OF IDENTITY - Popular Consciousness - Constitution - History & Landscape - Mining - Language - Music, Song and Dance - Food - Some Customs - Gorseth KERNOW BYS VYKKEN ______________________________________________________________________________ Introduction Celtic Cornwall? Is this a title than can be given to my little ancestral land by the sea in north west Europe? There have been competing views about what constitutes Celtic Cornwall. As Amy Hale stated in an article; “During the course of the (Cornish) Revival too much time and energy has been spent justifying Cornwall’s Celticity!”…. One asks, why was there any doubt?” To which I am tempted to reply – ‘who cares? .. we know we are the Celtic Cornish so let’s get on with life!’ But given that you have probably come expecting a workshop on the very subject I had better restrain myself. In essence today I will seek to explore with you the dual nature of being Cornish - that of the context in which one exists, and a continuing Celtic identity which largely comes from within. Along the way I will heavily draw heavily on others who are more learned than me, look at some elements such as language, and we may also have some fun. It is worth looking first in depth at the two words that make up the title of this workshop. Celtic? Whenever and wherever the term Celtic is used, it seems to mean something different! There is part of me that says, ‘well that’s very Celtic’! I am sure we all hold a different picture in our minds.
