| The Malc McCarthy Collection
Malc McCarthy a member of the Padstow OCS committee has sent me details of his collection of old photos which contains thousands of photographs over 400 of which have been added to fotolibra for you to browse. This will give you a flavour for what is included in the collection. Malc has also got over 2000 documents which are being lodged at the Cornwall Record Office as the "Malcolm McCarthy Collection". He has been working with volunteers from around the world to index and transcribe them all. The Index is online at his web site and if you find a document which is of use in your research you can contact Malc and he will happily send you a transcript. His e-mail address is on the web site.
If you are looking for a photograph of Cornwall in the past and don't find one below then contact Malc with details of what you are looking for and he will see if he can help. 30% of the purchase fee for any photo will be donated to the Federation.
