    3. Hi Josephine, I do remember meeting you in Llyswen Churchyard from which I found that my 3 x gt grandfather, grandmother and step-grandmother are buried there although I could not find the graves. My 3 x gt grandfather lived to an age which was not expected in that era (90) so I wasn't looking at the right time space. Thank you also for the John Maddy as seeing that his father was William and came from Glasbury I am sure has relevance to my family tree as they all seem to have come from that area. Joining them up to specific families is the problem. I have hundreds of names but cannot seem to put them into the family lines. Also strange as it may sound, the Meredithus Maddy from Blagdon is on my 1500 family tree as he was born at Dorstone Hereford just over the border from the Glasbury/Llanigon area in the Golden Valley. He was a curate at Blagdon and moved to Woodchurch, Kent and finally ended up in Southwark at the Hospital of St. Thomas. He also left a legacy to the villages of Dorstone and surrounding ones of about £45,000.00 to be held in perpetuity for the poor of the villages and had a village school built for which some of this money was deemed to be used. Thank you so much. That's a great help as I know that some of the later Maddy's (my family included) moved to Bristol and surrounding area. Best wishes Sue in Suffolk
