Dear Robert, It sounds like a possible misreading to me, but the context is important. If you have a photo of that part of the document I'll happily take a look at it off-list. Yours, Tom. -----Original Message----- From: mining-history [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Robert Waterhouse Sent: 26 April 2010 09:34 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Tolnet Dear List, I've just read a term in a 16th century Cornish tinwork deed referring to the word Tolnet in connection with the work. The way it is couched suggests that it is actually the name of the working, but its sounds different than the usual name variants and I wondered if it might have something to do with 'Toll Tin' (taxed tin)? Any ideas, anyone? Robert Waterhouse _________________________________________________________________ http://clk.atdmt.com/UKM/go/195013117/direct/01/
