Gathering 2004
The 13th Annual Gathering of the
California Cornish Cousins
was held
May 21, 22, 23 2004
in
Nevada City, CA
at
The Nevada City Elks Lodge # 518
and
The Northern Queen Inn
Keynote Speaker: Yowann Byghan
Guest Speaker: Susan Witterick
Special Musical Guest: Richard Cook
The theme of this years Gathering is Cornish Art and Literature as expressed by Cornish immigrants to America. Joining us for the 13th annual gathering are Keynote speaker Yowann Byghan, guest speaker Susan Witterick, and our special musical guest Richard Cook. The Nevada City Elks lodge will be the base from which we explore the culture of the Cornish in America and around the world. We will enjoy all our meals (2 breakfasts, a pasty lunch, and the banquet) custom-cooked at the Elks lodge. The highlight of our weekend will be a special dedication ceremony for the A. C. Todd Cornish Studies established in the Foley Historical library in Nevada City. This library was established at last years' annual meeting in San Pedro upon a motion made by Gage McKinney. Gage has overseen the implementation of that decision and his work and your vision have borne fruit. We urge all the Cousins to gather in Nevada County for this historical moment in California Cornish Cousins history.
