| I was born in Carn Bosavern in 1942, moving to Fore Street 2 years later. I have happy memories of spending time "up Carn" as a child, as my granny still lived there. My parents had evacuees before I was born, mum told me many stories about those years, and how traumatic it was for the children leaving their homes and families. | ||

| I have very fond memories of all around this area, I lived down Nancherrow, in the house behind the shop that I believe is now a craft /art shop, I left in 54 to live in Australia but now live in New Zealand, my Aunty still lives at Carn Bosavern !!! | ||

| In the late 1980s I fell in love with St Just and especially Carn Bosavern. Now I live in this row, walk straight along this pathway..... Cottage cold and damp. But bliss!! | ||

| My Grandmother, annie Tippet Reseigh lived at 26 or 27 Carn Bosavern with her brother Jack andsister Olive and their parents at least up until about 1912 - can anyone help me trace what happened to her Father John Reseigh - I think he must have died before 1916 | ||

| I was billeted during ww2 at no. 18 carn bosavern with a Mrs Rowe who had a daughter living in South Africa. The house was situated overlooking what was then the drill hall, where dances were held. My bedroom was at the front and I could listen to the music as I lay in bed. I was friendly with a girl called Adrienne who I think also lived on the carn. | ||
