Hi Pat Thanks for that, this is all getting a little frustrating. I notice on the 1851 census, my John Howell is with family living in Llanddowror and has him born Llangan. There is also a Benjamin Howell born Llangan living in Llanddowror aged 16. I can not believe how many Howell there are...very common people we are!! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Pat Powell" <pat@pcubed.demon.co.uk> To: <CARMARTHENSHIRE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, January 21, 2006 5:02 PM Subject: Re: [Cmn-L] Llangan > Hello Dave > > If you want to look at places in the parish of Llangan (part in Pem and > part in Carmarthenshire) on a current map then look for Whitland. > > Re the Henllan Amgoed records - I have found that most of the birth > records only give the name and date and not the parents names - > unfortunately as many of mine I think were baptised/christened there. > > I haven't seen the actual registers but the transcriptions only > occasionally show a father's name. > > One day I hope to look at the actual records and see for myself. > > Cheers > > Pat > > > > In message <001401c61e9e$d0e7b530$2a19c350@fishtank>, Dave Howells > <d.jhowells@blueyonder.co.uk> writes >>Could anyone explain to me Llangan >>When I look up Henllan Amgoed it tells me Parish of >>Henllan Amgoed and Llangan in Carmarthenshire and >>yes I can see H A on the map but when I do a map search for Llangan it >>comes >>up with Llangan in the vale of Glamorgan? >>Can anyone put me straight on this please >>thanks >> >> >> >>==== CARMARTHENSHIRE Mailing List ==== >>Carmarthenshire Place Names Database - Looking for a farm etc you cannot >>find - >>Contact - PeterWihl@compuserve.com - Let him know the name of the Farm >>House etc >>etc - He will search the Database >> > > -- > Pat Powell > > > ==== CARMARTHENSHIRE Mailing List ==== > Wales Genealogy CD's for Wales research > http://www.Wales-Genealogy.co.uk > > >
