Cornwall, a county at the southwest tip of Great Britain, played an important role in the settlement of southern Wisconsin. Starting in 1830 more than half of the population of Cornwall left for America and other places. Now there are 2 million people of Cornish descent in the US which is four times the present population of Cornwall, England.
