Cornwall memories

Kingsand

I was born in the village in 1924 and have a a lifelong treasury of memories of this lovely twin village, suggest you visit Rame Heritage or Village Family Tree sites for an informed guide by local historians - Jack Ford.

Cawsand

My family has been conected to Kingsand and Cawsand since the 1700s, and before, I expect. My family names are Colmer, Skinner, Prest (Millbrook) and Booth. I am very proud to be part of this forgotton corner of Cornwall.

Summer 1967

When I was three or four years old I visited Cawsand for a family holiday. I remember it very clearly because, for various reasons, it was the only holiday we all went on together. I am hoping someone might be able to solve an on-going mystery. We stayed in a wooden-framed canvas chalet which was set, with about eight or so others, on a concrete plinth reached by steps up from the beach.

They are as loved now as they ever were.

Rame Peninsula Through Time

I am currently compiling a book for Amberley Publishing called 'The Rame Peninsula Through Time'. The book will feature 90 old photos and 90 new photos. The new photos will all be in colour. I was wondering if anyone would be so kind as to lend me and old personal photos they have of the area? Email copies would be fine. I think it will prove to be a very interesting and attractive book when it's completed. Thanks for any help anyone can give me, it's much appreciated. Best wishes, Derek Tait. derek.tait@virgin.net
