Scottish Miners in Cornwall
« on: Monday 23 March 20 11:33 GMT (UK) »
Hello All,
Does anyone have any information showing if Scottish coalminers ever came south to Cornwall to work in the tin mines? I'm particularly interested in movement during the 18th & 19th centuries.
Cheers,
Bob

Thanks Skoosh,
That'll keep me quiet while I wait three months for people to stop drinking Corona. I'm more of a Guinness man myself!
