Can anyone suggest any books that may be purchased that are specific to the history and everyday life in the 1700's & 1800's for this area. We are having our Kewish family reunion in Jan 2010 in NZ and our family lived & worked in & around Sulby mainly as farmers & weavers - Generation 1:William Kewish & Alice Corlett, generation 2: Michael Kewish & Anne Wade, generation 3:William Kewish & Catherine Cowley & generation 4: William Kewish & Elizabeth Quayle( of Kirk Michael) who emigrated to Dunedin, New Zealand.
many thanks Cathy Kewish
