King or Queens Men 

Born in Cornwall Served Elsewhere

This page came about following a letter from Sylvia to the GuestBook. I contacted her and she sent details of her grandfather and his brother both of whom were born in Cornwall and eventually joined the Coastguard and served elsewhere. A number of other people have sent in details of family members who having been born in Cornwall and joined either the Customs, Excise, Coastguard or Preventative service  and served outside Cornwall. So my thanks to Sylvia, and if you have ancestors who you would like to add to the list then please send me the information by clicking  Here.
