Dennis Family Descendants in England

Blog statistics show that this site is being accessed by Australians and New Zealanders - but not so much from England. Interesting. Where are all the descendants of the Dennis family of West Penwith, Cornwall who still live in England? Surely family history interests them too! Approximately one third of my book From Buryan to Bondi contains information relevant to English descendants of the family. 


For those people, I point out that the book can be purchased online through BookPOD, using your credit card. BookPOD provides an excellent mailing service for international customers. See my website for more details of the book and feedback from readers.

For those visiting Cornwall, a copy of From Buryan to Bondi is held in the Library of Kresen Kernow ('Cornwall Centre') at Little Vauxhall, Redruth, Cornwall.
