Here is an interesting snippet from George Borrow In about an hour I reached Llangadog, a large village. The name signifies the Church of Gadog. Gadog was a British saint of the fifth century, who after labouring amongst his own countrymen for their spiritual good for many years, crossed the sea to Brittany, where he died. Scarcely had I entered Llangadog when a great shower of rain came down. Seeing an ancient-looking hostelry I at once made for it. In a large and comfortable kitchen I found a middle-aged woman seated by a huge deal table near a blazing fire, with a couple of large books open before her. Sitting down on a chair I told her in English to bring me a pint of ale. She did so and again sat down to her books, which on inquiry I found to be a Welsh Bible and Concordance. We soon got into discourse about religion, but did not exactly agree, for she was a bitter Methodist, as bitter as her beer, only half of which I could get down.

Hi Sylvia and Pauline, Many thanks for your help. I've spotted the 1841 Rebecca but ruled her out, as she appears in the 1861 census with her Mum and sister, Elizabeth. At that time my Rebecca is in Cardiff living with Uncle Rees and his wife Martha. I've got the father's name, John, from Rebecca's marriage certificate, which is witnessed by her Uncle Rees; so I'm assuming it will be accurate. Also, the marriage certificate and census information suggest a birth date of 1843 - 45. According to the 1861 census, Uncle Rees, was born in 1821 in Llandovery. This one's a real teaser, I've been on her trail for some time. Any suggestions welcome.   Thanks also for the reminder, Pauline; I'll get onto that. Take care, Anne.

Just had a quick look at my database for Llandingat - could this by the Rees she is living with? 1816 18th June Rees Lewis son of Howell and Mary, Dolau Hirion, Farmer does this fit......can see that Sylvia has a possible Rebecca in Pembs 1841.......is it her?

Hi Anne Are you sure Rebeccas father was called John? Living at Little Loveston, Loveston, Pembs in 1841 were David Lewis, Age 28, occupation Agricultural Labourer. Rebeccah Lewis, Age 28 Elizabeth Lewis, Age 18 months and Rebeccah Lewis, Age 8 weeks. Together with Susan Jermin a 12 year old Female Servant. The 1841 does not give the actual place of birth, other than telling us that all the above were born in Pembrokeshire.

Lyn. I very much doubt it. The hospital was demolished decades ago but, as was the case with most, the birth probably took place at home. We're talking about the early 1920's. p.s. You get the Gold for the fastest ever response; at least to me. Winter having come early here in Canada I'd love to be down under now.

Hi Pat Thank you so much for your efforts. I have not found this name on any census. The person may have been Jones and married a Hilary and hyphenated the name. If I had more information it would help but unfortunately I don't. All I was told was that there was a family by the name Hilary-Jones in the 1950s in Pontyberem area. Could you tell me what other parish Pontyberem comes under, apart from Llangendeirne. Thanks Pat. Regards Mandy

Hello Viv It seems your e-mail was one of the ones that was "held up" somewhere and I have only just received it this morning (Dec 10th) I'll get back to you this afternoon - hopefully with some answers. I have sent this reply both to the list and direct to you as there seems to be something strange going on with the mails at the moment.

Hi Pauline Yes it is happening on other lists. The odd thing is that whereas some of the mailings seem to have been "held up" somehwere and are "new" , some of them I have definitely had before because I remember reading them.

HI Ron thanks, it is strange I do not know why.......does anyone subscribe to other lists and know if the same is happening there?

This is the same on ALL the Rootsweb lists. I volunteer the obits for the London Free Press for Ontario Canada can-ont-obits@rootsweb.com and they are just now sending in some from November. Hopefully it will all get resolved soon.

Hi Pauline Yes, it is happening on two other lists that I subscribe to - this morning I received an email dated 14 November 2008, and several others dated later in November . I wonder where they have been all this time. Regards Elizabeth
