We are very impressed by your website. We had just had a disappointing tour of
the Coventry Cathedral website and so were not prepared for the magnificent
contents of 'Alan's Place'! Thanks for reviving our spitits!

Hello Alan. A very clear and easy to use site. Well done! I am a 55 year old Cornishman with a welsh father and decided, upon gaining a few O and A levels,
that I was not going to leave Cornwall and thus, after working in Falmouth GPO
as a counter clerk for 10 years, took up the family (Endean) tradition of
fishing. Did very well until the Greedy scots, the French, Dutch, Spanish and
the EEC took it all away. Then spent some time with the Harbour Office and as
mechanic on the lifeboat before being kicked off for being to old. Am now
working at Bodmin, for St Merryn Meat and thoroughly hate the drive to and thro'
each day. My daughter has followed in my footsteps and after gaining some very
good exam results managed to find employment in a computerised printing firm
here in Falmouth. My wife is also Cornish with a welsh father and she works at
Falmouth Community school, which is just a short walk up the road from where we
live in Lamb's Lane. Just a short insight into who is logging on to your site.
Catch you again me 'ansom. Roy Parry

Hello there..please help me if you can? I am looking for information on the
surname "Lusk". This was my maiden name and would love to find out for
my 79 year old dad about his grandfather Comfort Jay Lusk and his family. I have
talked to someone from UK who thought it may be a Cornish name. Any suggestions
for sites would be greatly appreciated. It would be a precious gift to my dad in
his elderly life.. and a joy for me to know if I have family whom I have never
met in England. Thanks so very much!

nigelgregory@bigpond.com. New to the internet and this is one of the first sites
I came across. It will take me a day or two to go through everything. Like an
earlier signer, I also leant BRO GOTH AGAN TASOW in my youth - this is Kernow's
national anthem, not "Trelawney"!

Had a nice, first visit to Cornwall last Fall (98). G-g-g-grandparents emigrated
from St. Agnes area in the 1850s. Interested in Curtis-Penrose-Treddinick ties.
Enjoyed your page. A lot of work? Stay proud, it is a lovely area of this
planet.

Nice web pages... especially the picture of King Harry ferry, I was there a few
months ago. We've just moved to Penarth in S.wales (pen being the same in
Cornish and welsh of course) and into a house called Penwenack. I know |Cornwall
well.. yet have necer heard of a place called Penwenack. Neither does a web
search reveal anything.. any ideas?

Very interested in your web page content. My dad originated from Stithians Nr.,
Redruth Cornwall(circa 1905). I am the eldest son, my dad is deceased leaving
three sons and a daughter all having families. Would be interested in hearing
from other Knuckeys. Please keep up the good work.

Hi Alan: Love your website. Visited Cornwall and Devon this past summer. We were

michael buscombe in
bundaberg qld australia at 7:4:49 Wednesday January 20 99
i was researching the buscombe family tree and i get the impression that members
left cornwall in the early 1800 to australia and ontario canada -i think there
are only a few hundred buscombes in the whole world - any help in cornish
history would be much appreciated if anyone is interesred.
Tess Goldman in San

Most impressive website, Alan. Makes my photo of the cat look silly. (I haven't
actually got a cat, hence no photo - though I could photo someone else's cat, I
suppose - but you see the tribute thus being paid.)
