A lot of tin miners went to the USA when work was drying up in Cornwall.

Thankyou so very much for all the above information - I find it so amazing that so many of the family went to the USA (and a few to South Africa).
All your help is much appreciated. Thank you everyone.
Priscilla.

Oops - I am SO sorry - please accept my apologies everyone - I did have second thoughts prior to posting and have been sat here biting my nails ever since.

Yes please any information on the remainder of the siblings would be wonderful although I have found on FreeBMD that Redvers Buller Harris died aged 16 in 1918.

Michael: I couldn't agree more! At first thought Ermyntrude was bad enough but Clarice Harris is something else!

Once again many thanks to everyone for your help - and - once again - please accept my apologies - I won't do it again - I feel really bad about it.

Can I ask that you ask about this family on one thread to stop volunteers duplicating research. I know its a different forename but same family. Do you need information about the rest of the siblings apart for Cicely which we have already done
