Signature …………………………….. 1 2 Abstract: The 19th century is recognised as a period of mass emigration from Cornwall, with a significant proportion of the male population leaving to work overseas, mainly in the mining industry. Less appreciated is that many of these migrants were married men who left wives and children behind in Cornwall. This study seeks to shed some light on the experiences of these women, known as ‘married widows’. It adopts a multi-faceted approach, which draws upon crowd-sourcing and digital resources, in combination with more traditional methodologies. Scattered and fragmentary qualitative evidence (drawn from correspondence, newspapers, remittance and poor law records, supplemented by personal testimony recorded in family histories) is examined within a quantitative framework produced by an innovative database created from census records and a longitudinal study of outcomes. This thesis describes how tens of thousands of wives were ‘left behind’ in the mining communities of Cornwall, and the wide range of resources they drew upon in the absence of their husbands. It examines the interaction between the wives and the State in the form of the Poor Law and the Courts, identifying a pragmatic response to the needs of the emerging transnational nuclear family. Male migration from Cornwall is revealed to vary widely in type, intent and duration, leading to great diversity of experiences and outcomes for the wives ‘left behind’. The establishment of temporary male labour emigration from the Cornish mining communities is shown to have occurred earlier than in many other emigration centres, creating greater potential for cultural acclimatisation to the challenges of spousal separation. The findings of this study challenge existing, generalised, perceptions of the wives as passive victims in the Cornish emigration story. Levels of destitution or desertion appear low compared to the scale of the phenomenon, and wives are shown as active participants and influential voices in family strategies. Nonetheless, this study highlights the vulnerability and greater risks faced by the wives ‘left behind’, and identifies financial and emotional insecurity as common elements of their experience. This thesis demonstrates a methodology and reveals insights that might be applied to the study of wives ‘left behind’ in other parts of the British Isles, and a comparator for existing studies of those elsewhere in the world. 3 4 Contents: Acknowledgements 6 List of Figures 7 List of Tables 8 Chapter 1.

There are, however, a few happy exceptions, where the absent husbands send home good round sums to their wives.” Anon, Royal Cornwall Gazette 18761 Introduction The ‘married widows’ of Cornwall are an overlooked feature of what is known in Cornish historiography as the ‘Great Emigration’. In the 19th century Cornwall, situated in the far south west of the British Isles, experienced a diasporadic exodus that saw its people and culture spread to the far-flung corners of the world. The scale and duration of this emigration, with large waves of movement to the Americas (North2 and South) from the 1830s, to Australia from the 1850s and to South Africa from the 1880s, puts Cornwall on a par with many of the major European emigration centres.3 Emigration is a major theme within Cornish Studies, relevant not only to an understanding of Cornwall’s past, but of its present and future. It has contributed to the evolution of a strong sense of Cornish identity, both in Cornwall and amongst the overseas descendants of Cornish emigrants. It is a significant strand of the heritage tourism offering that forms an important part of the modern Cornish economy, providing a narrative, and a ready market amongst the international Cornish community. Academically, Cornwall’s history of emigration also reinforces the position of Cornish Studies within the wider field of Celtic Studies, parallels being drawn with mass emigrations from the Celtic nations of Scotland, Wales and Ireland. Traditionally, migration studies have focused on the causes of migration, its streams and processes from the point of view of the migrants. However, in recent years research on migration generally has taken a more holistic approach. Migration historians have adopted Harzig and Hoerder’s model of migration as encompassing ‘multiple options’, being potentially: “many- 1 Royal Cornwall Gazette, 15 July 1876, p.

  • O-TYPE VOWELS in CORNISH Dr Ken George
    GEORGE 2013 2ovowels O-TYPE VOWELS IN CORNISH by Dr Ken George Cornish Language Board 1 A B S T R A C T Evidence from traditional Cornish texts and from place-names is used to trace the development of the two o-type vowels, /o/ and / ɔ/. Recent denials by Williams of the existence of two long o-type vowels are refuted. Further evidence shows a difference between /o/ and / ɔ/ when short, and by inference, when of mid-length. The significance of this for the spelling of the revived language is briefly discussed. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 /ɔ/ and /o/ In George (1984), I showed that there were two o-type vowels in Middle Cornish (MidC), which will be denoted /o/ and / ɔ/. /o/, from Old Cornish (OldC) /ui/ and /ɔ/ from OldC / ɔ/ were separate phonemes. Support for their separateness, when followed by [s], [z], [ θ] and [ ð] appears in three different historical orthographies, in rhymes and in place-names. (The evidence in other phonetic environments, particularly when followed by nasal and liquid consonants, is weaker, and is reviewed below). My discovery has gained wide acceptance, but has been persistently attacked by Nicholas Williams. In Williams (2006), he devoted a whole chapter (31 pages) to the case of the long stressed vowels, concluding: “Middle Cornish never contained two separate long vowels /o ː/ and / ɔː/. 2. The distinction … between troes ‘foot’ and tros ‘noise’ is unjustified.” In this paper, the evidence for the two o-type vowels is reviewed in detail, and the reasons for Williams’ erroneous conclusion are examined.
