The Cornishman 1960-1990.

There's good representation prior to 1960 and some (but not all) after 1990 but a gap of thirty years from 1960 to 1990 that covers a lot of peoples lives who are still here and finally have to time to look back at old articles or have an interest in genealogy etc.

West Cornwall's location often makes for interesting headlines regarding activities (often unfortunately disasters) at sea. There are a number of noteworthy ones, the oil tanker the Torrey Canyon for example (1967), the tragic Union Star and the loss of the Penlee Lifeboat with all hands, the Solomon Browne (1981) and the MV Cita wrecked in Hells Mouth Bay on the Scillies.
