Hi, I found these sites very interesting and helpful. Thought I would pass them on. http://www.rmhh.co.uk http://www.cpcug.org/user/jlacombe/terms.html http://www.gendocs.demon.co.uk/trades.html Julia, Carlsbad. Ca.

Julia....Thanks for your response..I will also watch out for your James from Laugharne. Partial to all teams, college and pro from Ohio...Bill

Bill, Thank you for touching base's, my JOHN JAMES was born in Laugharne 1806 and your Rachel James was born in Llanfairarbryn 1811, Is their a connection? I have learnt since doing genealogy anything is possible. JOHN JAMES b. abt. 1806 is as far back as I have gone so far. I have your James info in my file, if I find anything on your James I will let you know. Julia, Carlsbad, Ca. GO PADRES

Hi Pauline, Thanks for your reply re the above. Is there an email address for the CFHS? It could be rather costly to phone them from here. Do you know what year the Box cemetary was started away from the Adulam one?. Thanks for your help Audrey NZ.

Hi Audrey Box cemetary was started early 1850's.......no records until the 1860's although there are headstones with information on.....Adulam was a very early graveyard, the earlier headstones have been removed and there are no records of who was buried in them... email for CFHS is me....... thanks Pauline ----- Original Message ----- From: "audbill" <audbill@xtra.co.nz> To: <CARMARTHENSHIRE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, October 07, 2005 9:28 AM Subject: [Cmn-L] Jenkins, Llanelly > Hi Pauline, > Thanks for your reply re the above.

Hello Huw I just checked out the info you wanted re Tymawr. Mary John Head wid 77 Midwife John Webb Son -in -law 36(could be 26 or othernumber) General labourer Margaret Webb M Gr-Dau 23 Mary Ann Grt Gr-Dau 1 All are noted as being born in Pembrey and speaking both Welsh and English. The note that John is a son-in-law is obviously in error as he is married to the Gr-Dau. I hpe this helps! Cheers Sian W.

Hi Audrey If they died in Llanelly and were part of Sion Chapel they may be buried in Box cemetary Llanelli unless in Adulam Felinfoel as for some time Zion/Sion chapel was part of Adulam..... the non-conformists bought land to bury their families in consecrated burial grounds which is Box cemetary which the area was known as....... CHFS have monumental photographs of both burial grounds if they had a headstone. Box cemetary itself has a name index,but not all are recorded on the index.....you could telephone them to enquire......if you need the telephone number let me know...

Hi Herschuel The marriages pre 1837 do not give names of father ......you can purchase the actual marriage entry from Carmarthen record office (archives) you could see if they could sign their name and names of witnesses.....that will be the only information, if occupation was given I would have included in the index...

Hi Fred A bond does not mean that a marriage took place, only that they paid an amount of money that they forfeited if the marriage did not take place. I cannot find them in my database, but they could have married in Pembrokeshire, I only have Pembs from 1813-1837 the only one I have of the given names is 1793 19th December Llanginning parish church David Phillip Trelech ar bettws and Elizabeth Griffith Llanginning this cannot be them as it is pre the bond........the only other David Phillip and Elizabeth from Llanboidy is 1808 David Phillip cabinet maker and Elizabeth Lewis both of Llanboidy Pauline ----- Original Message ----- From: "Fred Seamons" <fseamons@ubtanet.com> To: <CARMARTHENSHIRE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, October 04, 2005 4:34 AM Subject: [Cmn-L] Llaniboidy marriage afidaviat and Bond Phillip & Griffith > Hi, > > I found the following in a Google search but don't know where to go from > here.
