Hi List Here's one for the RULE followers: Will of John RULE, mine agent, of Camborne Veor, Camborne, written 27 Dec 1833, proved in London 21 Jul 1834, mentions: Thomas(?) JEWELL, servant; Charles RULE, son; John RULE, son; William RULE, son; daughter, Susan, wife of Francis DANIELL; Abraham MITCHELL, tenant. Witnessed by Samuel WHEAR & Samuel RAWLINGS. John RULE (of Camborne Veor, aged 83),was buried at Camborne on 6 Jun 1834. His second wife, Anne, nee BENNETT, of Camborne Veor, was buried at Camborne on 9 Apr 1822, aged 48. They were married on 9 Aug 1796 at Camborne. John RULE was described as a captain in the mines. He was mentioned as such in will of his father-in-law James BENNETT (1804). It would be interesting if anyone on the list could explain the difference, if any, between a mine captain and a mine agent. Tony Bennett Cheshire, UK
