- Ken Pengelly from a very old Looe fishing family talks about working in Looe and the Pengelly family. The archive footage from the South West Film and Television Archive was edited by Robert Hocking and converted into a digital format. The old photographs are from the family collections of Ken Pengelly and the late A.J. Pengelly. The project has been part funded by South West Screen and the Heritage Lottery Fund.
Fascinating. Thank you.
What a wonderful video, thank you so much for posting!
Thank goodness nobody added 'musical enhancement' to it!
There should be more videos like this. People would learn more about the past.
My mates Granfer, lovely man from a proper Looe family. And yes, that is a typical Looe accent, so rare these days and so beautiful to listen too. Reminds me of home...though I only live in Newquay, I still miss it.
great idea for documentuaries
Lovely video, the corish accent is great
that's my great grandad
Solendid! More please.
pengelly is proper celtic cornish name...very similar to welsh
3tangle3 is right, Pengelly thats a proper name.
So the saying goes: By Tre, Bos, Pol, Pen,
Lan, Nan, Caer, and Fen,
You may know most Cornish men!
There are reckoned to be up to as many as 1400-1500 distinct Cornish surnames. Of these 400-500 begin with the prefix Tre, 106 have Pol, 50 each start with the rest and Nan has the least variations with less than 30. The rest of the Cornish surnames are different like Bligh, Blight etc or Hocking or Bullock
Fidock is also Cornish too my handsome rooted in the parish of Newlyn East which is where my great great grandfather came from settled in South Australia.
