WHO WE ARE

The Southern Sons of Cornwall Inc. is a very active Cornish Association based mostly in NSW Australia, with a current membership of 40+ families. 

 

Our logo represents the Cornish under the Southern Cross.

Originally a branch of the NSW Cornish Association, it was first formed in 1998 with just two members but when the first gathering was held 28 people attended. 

In 2003 it was decided to secede from the NSW Association mainly because of distance.

Activities are held about 6 or 7 times a year and a newsletter is sent out on a regular basis. 

Our interests vary greatly from genealogy, song, drama, Cornish language and culture.

We have our own Cornish dance group that meets on Friday afternoons 2pm-4pm at the North Nowra Community Hall. No experience necessary.

 

The Cornish born members are always willing to help Australian Cornish descendants with place names and pronunciation and the drama group entertain and introduce the Cornish accent to the uninitiated!!
