The Cornish Creed

The Cornish Creed

Preserving the Historical Rules and Community Principles of Cornish

Historical manuscripts offer a direct view into the dedicated community guidelines and foundational principles of past generations. For members of the Cornish Heritage Society in America, the text from these archival newspaper clippings records "The Cornish Creed." This 15-point document details the expectations, shared values, and codes of conduct observed by the permanent residents and members of the Cornish colony in New Hampshire.

The Foundation of the Community

The historical document outlines the rise of a dedicated group within the Connecticut River Valley. According to the archival text, a structured doctrine was observed in Cornish by a large group of residents who referred to themselves as the "Sittites."

These individuals established a deep connection to the local landscape, transitioning into permanent, perennial residents of the Cornish hills. The manuscript notes that the community developed a strong sense of stewardship…

Привіт усім! Чи мали ви подібний досвід випробування нових платформ за рекомендаціями з форумних відгуків? Що ви думаєте про значення технічної надійності та відсутності збоїв під час онлайн-трансляцій для комфортного користування в Україні, і який ваш погляд на те, як перші позитивні результати та стабільна робота сервісу впливають на подальший вибір користувача?

Вітаю всіх присутніх! Я слухав місцевий спортивний подкаст, де цю платформу згадали як спонсора випуску. Зайшов перевірити гнучкість лімітів на депозит та виведення коштів, оскільки не люблю робити ставки на великі суми. Особливість, яка мені сподобалася, — це можливість почати з дуже малих сум, що підходить багатьом в Україні. Я задоволений своїм досвідом з https://casinos.mriya.social/veidgher-v-kazyno/, оскільки це не створює фінансового тиску на гравців і залишає можливість кожному брати участь відповідно до свого бюджету. Досвід був спокійним і вільним від будь-якого тиску чи великих фінансових зобов'язань.

21st Gathering in Mineral Point, Sept 24 and 25

Mineral Point, Wisconsin, is considered one of the main centers for Cornish heritage in North America.

 

Located in the Driftless Area of the quad-states area, Mineral Point offered an invitation to the Cornish in the mid-19th century to mine lead and to develop a very Cornish settlement that has expanded to a center for artisans and agriculture.

 

The Cornish American Heritage Society is proud to present the

CAHS Officers' Meeting Minutes on Aug 24, 2025

Attendees: Thomas Rusch, Johnny Trestrail, Chris Haines, Harry Curnow, Bob Wareham,  Dot Hosking, Carolyn Haines


Follow-ups from last meeting: 


Johnny - the website has been updated and the newsletters are now sorted under the date of publication.


Dot - She is getting Johnny a debit card and able to sign checks. She also proposed laddering some of the monies in the checking account since it doesn't get any interest.$3000 now for 5-7 months at highest rate available probably around 5.5-9%. Another 3000 for 1 yrs and another one for 2 yrs. That would leave us with $4000 in the account. It was moved by Dot and 2nd by Tom and passed.


Membership: Bob - New in July= 5, and Aug = 3, 290 total. Discussion about Toronto Cornish Association and John Webb was asked to wait until Global Cornish was presented.


Gathering updates: Tom - none.

The last item, about Global Cornish, caught my eye. After discovering my sweetheart's (Holly Odgers) Cornish mining ancestors in and around Goldsithney and Perranuthnoe, as a birthday gift I gave her some shares of Cornish Metals, Inc., a relatively new mining company in South Crofty. It's traded on the London and Toronto stock exchanges and we've enjoyed following its ups and downs, along with email announcements from the company. Holly has found it meaningful to be invested in Cornwall's mining future while honoring her Cornish ancestors' mining past.


Note: The share price indicated online is in GBX, which is "pence sterling." I was blissfully unaware of that when I invested in Holly's gift, incorrectly assuming it was "pounds sterling," so I initially purchased a modest $25 USD worth of shares. I'd intended to be about 10 times more generous than that and was able to make the necessary adjustment in a subsequent purchase.


[Disclaimer: I'm not a financial advisor (by any stretch), nor am I recommending investment in Cornish Metals.]
