Searching For My Ancestors
Prussia Cove is a place I walked to in 2007 and have come away knowing that I have todo my family tree as I am related to both Captain Harry Carter and his brother John Carter (The King of Prussia) who were local smugglers. My brother has been named John Carter Read and it is from my mother's side of the family Thelma Carter from Par. My mother is now deceased but I shall be happy to go back to Cornwall this year to start the search and look forward to seeing Prussia Cove again where a lot of the Carter smuggling was done. Does anyone know the name of the house there that John Carter had and whether it still stands today? Any information that anyone has already found would be greatly appreciated and you can email me on claraduck1@yahoo.co.uk please. Posted: 14/01/2008 17:01 by Clare Brown |

Kennegy Cove A memory of Rosudgeon, Cornwall Looking from Prussia Cove (Prussia Cove is the area, not an actual cove) towards Kennegy. Tin mine workings exposed on beach and on cliffs above. Kerrier DC (it's just on the border of Kerrier and Penwith DCs) have replaced the rope we abseiled down with stainless steel steps and ladder, but it's no easier to get down!
