Grandfather was a stonemason, as was his father. The Prowse family came from St Buryan in the first place, I believe. They were farmers and farm labourers. But the part of the family that moved and lived around Paul were all stone workers. Like his three brothers, grandfather had a granite quarry. His quarry was at Castallack.
