Thanks Simon. I had no idea. My father, also a Rashleigh, carries mineral samples around in his suitcase to this day. I was born in Cornwall and been back a number of times but never checked out the Rashleigh collection. Something on the list to see, and I'm also curious to work out if we descend from Philip
Hi Simon Only just seen your post, thanks for commenting. There are several videos on the virtual microscope website www.virtualmicroscope.org I suggest you drop in on the Royal Cornish Museum in Truro that have a lot of the Rasheligh papers too.
