Hi Carol and all, Thank you for all the work you're doing on the Sussex Marriages! I don't know too much about Sussex co, so forgive me if this is a stupid question: what kind of quarries are in Quarryville? Are they slate quarries? I'm on the lookout for Cornish families and there were a lot of them in the Slate Belt of PA and I believe there were some in Sussex. I'm looking in the marriages for Cornish names but haven't seen any yet. Cornish names are especially those that start with "By TRE-, ROS-, POL-, LAN-, CAR- and PEN, Ye shall know most Cornishmen." Tre is definitely the biggest and outside of these prefixes there are lots of other Cornish names (mostly from the Cornish language). Tremaine, Trelease, Trembath, Trengove, Trelawny, Trevithick and on and on and on. "Tre" is the village or homestead. Roscarrow, Rosewarne, Roskelly, Rosevear Polmear, Pollard, Polglase, Polkinghorne Landry, Lanfear, Lanyon, Lansallos Carthew, Carkeet, Carbis, Carlyon Penhallow, Penrose, Pendragon (as in Arthur), Penglaze, Penhale, Penhaglion, Penberth, etc. But also names like Rowe, Udy, Jewell, Hoskin, Hocking, Sawle, Pascoe, Truran, Vivian, Bonython, Jago, Nance, Nancarrow and more. If you have or know of any names like that in Sussex, please let me know. I have a database of almost 3,200 names of Cornish in NJ. 172 of them are in Sussex County. They were in slate quarries and zinc mines that I know of. I'd be happy to share any information I have and very happy to get more.
