    1. [Dyfed] French in South West Wales
    2. yvonne evans
    3. Hello Listers, This is a long shot! I have heard tales of French people in small numbers inhibitating the Cardigan area(Ferwig area) in 1700's.Apparently there was a farm in that area with a French name. I have ancestors by surname Oliver originating from North Pembs and also ancestors with surname Peregrine from North Pembrokeshire including the Llandysilio area. My grandparents used to tell me we had continental connections going back to 18th century, but I have been unable to trace any! I am just wondering about a Hugenot connection fleeing from persecution in France. Has anyone any ideas ? It would be very much appreciated. Yvonne Evans
