Retired newspaper journalist, now spending most of my waking hours doing genealogy and staying healthy. My Cornish ancestors' surname was Cornish, among them John Cornish (1590-1652), vicar of the parish of Poughill. I took my first trip to Cornwall in the fall of '24 and loved it! My sweetheart's ancestors were Odgers and Hosking; my best friend's ancestors were Manuel. Currently living in Sussex County, N.J., which is mining country.
