Oscure reference, he is barely known of outside South Australia.

Obviously Mediterranean looking from the pics.

I found him on the "Cornish People" wikipedia page.

Fair enough, I had heard of him (unlike many of the Australians posted here). More Cornish of note here historically than anywhere, even Britain, but there's no Cornish community to speak of anymore, they're just mixed into the Anglo-Celtic majority.

Let's face it. Australian society has destroyed the smaller Isles community identity and just made one big Anglo-Celtic porridge mush. It's hardly better the North American mutts and even us Balkan Australians are more pure.

Yeah Ive read there are more people who identify as Cornish in Australia than even in Britain or something like that, but yeah I don't think their identity is any different from the other Anglo-Celts, just like the identity of the actual Cornish in Enland is kind of a LARP today anyway

It's not such a bad thing, the Catholic-Protestant or Irish-British divide has all too often been used as a political wedge. I'm glad that problem has been mixed out of contention here, but I'm biased.

For now.
