it depends if your talking of the county of conwall or the duchie of corwall that contians both the countys of corwall and devon

The suffix -sex in Wessex, Sussex, etc. comes from the word seax (a kind of knife), which is the same root as the ethnic group name Saxon. Wessex more or less means "West Saxons". I've always found it odd that there's Wessex (west), Essex (east), Sussex (south), and Middlesex (middle), but no north version ("Norsex"?).
