Treviscoe is a village northwest of the large town of St. Austell and south of St. Dennis in Cornwall, England. There are large china clay works to the east and to the west. For the past 200 years the main industry of the village has been the extraction of china clay which is a raw material in the production of paper and porcelain. China clay extraction is one of the major industries of Cornwall. [edit] Research TipsOne of the many maps available on A Vision of Britain through Time is one from the Ordnance Survey Series of 1900 illustrating the parish boundaries of Cornwall at the turn of the 20th century. This map blows up to show all the parishes and many of the small villages and hamlets. The following websites have pages explaining their provisions in WeRelate's Repository Section. Some provide free online databases.
