The bottom line is that I had to -- and continue to have to -- restrict family history work very significantly ... and not sure when I can resume. BUT ... I did keep watch on Kresen Kernow, and within 15 minutes of them reopening on 30 Sep, I had e-mailed them to initiate the process of obtaining that 1550's Devonshire deed which includes some with "Lake, alias Estlake", which is item CN/1061 in the catalogue of Kresen Kernow. Of course, that was more than 2 weeks ago. Almost everything that could go wrong did go wrong. But at long last, for the price of GBP 10, I have the document, which is attached. [CN-1061001.jpg] I am apparently required -- and so are all of you if you pass it on to anyone else or publish it in any way -- to also pass on this statement from Kresen Kernow. Under UK Copyright law CN/1061 is still in copyright and will be until 31 December 2039. If you wanted to publish this then you will need to get permission from the current copyright owner. If the copyright holder cannot be traced, the decision to publish without permission is taken entirely at the risk of the person reproducing the item. There are waivers to unpublished works over 100 years old. Unpublished literary and dramatic works over 100 years old, where the author has been dead for over 50 years and the current copyright owner is unknown, may be published without infringing copyright, and without any obligation to identify the copyright owner as long as relevant publication permissions have been gained from Kresen Kernow. Works that fall into this category may still be in copyright until 2039 and this waiver is a dispensation not a right. When publishing images of items in our collections, (with or without the consent of the copyright holder), Kresen Kernow should be acknowledged as the custodian of the original document and the document reference number quoted. As you will see, it is in the old script which takes a bit to get used to once again, so that I cannot just dive in and transcribe it, even if I did not have the limits on my time. So I am hoping that one of you will take on the task of transcribing it and sending us the transcription.     Wesley Here is the Kresen Kernow full entry on the document. Tregrehan is an estate in St. Blazey parish in Cornwall, the home of the Carlyon family. That is how this record about property in Devon wound up in the archive in Cornwall.
