I discovered this rather interesting book in our local library on my most recent visit. It's written by Richard D. Dawe M.A., and is good background reading for anyone who has Cornish ancestors who ended up in South Africa. The main bias is on mining, although Cornish folk in other trades and professions do feature. Having spent roughly 16 years in the Cape, it was fascinating for me to discover that names familiar to me, such as Stuttaford (large department stores in various parts of South Africa), Bishop Colenso, Higgo and Baragwanath, to name a few, were all of Cornish stock.
