My paternal great grandfather worked in these mines around Cornwall. He eventually emigrated to the upper peninsula of Michigan to work in the copper mines around Houghton/Hancock. Many people did the same and brought the pasty along with them. It became a staple of the diets of many copper miners and upper peninsula inhabitants. The Pasty still flourishes there. Given our interconnected world, I can now order pasties from a kitchen in Calumet Michigan (pasty.com) and they'll be here in 2 days. Love live the might Pasty!

Family is from Cornwall but came to US in 1960s…Fun fact of history is the American town they moved to had a prior history of tin mines that were run by the miners of Cornwall.
