Hello everyone. I've decided to follow your advice and register instead of just lurking.
I've been researching on and off for a while now. I was born in Plymouth and my ancestors all seem to originate from the South West, with lots of Cornish including farmers, ag labs, copper miners and balmaidens. The Devonians were mostly mariners and there are shoemakers and cordwainers from Somerset and tailors and wool merchants from Wiltshire.
I'm looking forward to getting some advice from all you experts

Hi Ann - welcome to the forum!
Hopefully the forum will be able to help you with your ancestors. There are specific sections of the forum for each county (and Cornwall ) which would be the best place to pop any queries.
Whilst most of us do not claim to be experts, there is a wealth of experience on a wide range of different things here which should be handy
Most of my family were Cornish, so I have a bit of an interest in that side of things.
Cheers,
Mark
