'In mid and west Cornwall, west of the Camel-Fowey line, Cornish remained the vernacular language into the 16th century and later. And in this area bynames also remained fluid well into the 1500s. It was no coincidence that the pattern in the western zone resembled that of Wales, with many families not adopting fixed surnames until the 1500s.'     ✫ღ⊰n Celtic Nations, Kernow, West Cornwall, I Am A Writer, Isles Of Scilly, Old Quotes, Old Map, Place Names
