[When the gazetteer was edited for serial publication in the BSHM Newsletter, references were omitted since the bibliography was too substantial to be included. Publication on the web permits references to be included for material now being added to the website, but they are still absent from material originally prepared for the Newsletter - TM, August 2002]
In Zennor there is a wall-plaque to John Davey (1770-1844) "well known as a Mathematician and Schoolmaster" [Letter from John Fauvel describing Robin Wilson's discovery and photographing of this in 1991].
