Thanks for the links. I am interested in old maps, but I think a better resource is www.british-history.ac.uk/map.aspx. I find the maps more accessible than at www.old-maps.co.uk, which is an Ordnance Survey site anxious to sell you a copy!

By the way, as well as maps, there is a great deal of other material at www.british-history.ac.uk, though much of it related to other counties than Cornwall. However members of this forum may be interested in the transcription of 1814 parochial history of Cornwall, published as volume 3 of Lysons' Magna Britannia (http://www.british-history.ac.uk/source.aspx?pubid=403).
