Cornish immigrants are individuals who moved from the Cornwall region in England to other countries, particularly during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Many sought better economic opportunities, often working in industries such as mining, fishing, and agriculture. Their migration was influenced by the decline of the local tin and copper mining industries in Cornwall. Significant populations of Cornish immigrants settled in places like Australia, the United States, and Canada. They brought with them unique cultural traditions, including their language, Cornish, and culinary practices, which have influenced local cultures in their new homes.
