Cornwall Response Books

Description

Response books, completed in ms. phonetic script, recording the answers of informants from Survey of English Dialects (SED) localities in Cornwall to the Dieth-Orton Questionnaire. Responses were recorded by SED fieldworker John Wright at Kilkhampton, Altarnun, Egloshayle, St. Ewe, Gwinear, St. Buryan and Mullion. Each response book bears ms. editorial markings relating to the editing of the recorded responses for publication in the SED Southern Counties Basic Material volume. Response books for Cornwall were edited by Martyn Wakelin in 1962. The response books are retained in the numerical order assigned to SED localities, 36 Co 1-7.
