Hi Jeff Unfortunately, I can't help on your Morgan query. With regard to the Lusitania, the one you refer to was a 3,877 ton vessel launched in Birkenhead in 1871 and wrecked of Cape Ballard, Newfoundland on 26 June 1901 all 350 passengers were saved.. A later Lusitania was the 5,557 ton Portuguese passenger liner launched in 1906, which struck Bellows Rock, below the lighthouse on Cape Point in South Africa on 18th April 1911 with 774 people on board. Eight people died when a boat capsized.

I would like to say a grateful thank you to both Gareth Morgan and Jennie Newman for their swift response to my query regarding Thomas Richards. To Gareth for giving me such a wonderful website - in this instance I could not find what I was looking for but when the site is fully searchable it will be fantastic. To Jennie for giving me the answer - unfortunately not the one I had hoped for!! - thus preventing me from going a long way down the wrong track. To have such a swift response was great. Beryl

Hi I have checked our database and the father is not Thomas in the marriage of Thomas Richard and Mary Ann Rees. As the information has been indexed directly by ourselves from the registers held in the Pontypridd Registry Office unfortunately I cannot confirm details of parents to you.

Sue, go down to the bottom of the Family Search page and you will find the link to the old version. The previous records are still there. Cheers Graham Melbourne Oz

I have put online images and transcripts of all the graves in the Onllwyn public cemetery: http://www.cefnpennar.com/onllwyn/ The OGRE

Dear List. Does anybody have access to the burial records of the above, I am looking for the burial of a John ROGERS buried about Sept 1880 and with luck his wife Catharine will be there. The above has been withdrawn from the lookup exchange. Gerwyn

Gerwyn - I've been trying to find my grandparents and uncles' burial info for some time, without much luck. I have a relative & friend who work in the Caerphilly library service, who haven't found anything for me yet. I visited the grave-yard last year, and found most head stones to be unreadable. I don't think the church is the property/responsibility of the Caerphilly council, because of its appearance/upkeep. Compared to Brithdir cemetary, it's a disgrace. Please let me know if you have a break-through.

David Jones of Wallington, Surrey was born in Llanblethian in 1834 and educated in Cowbridge. His biography can be seen on the NLW website http://yba.llgc.org.uk/en/s1-JONE-DAV-1834.html Many of his MI entries were transcribed by Glamorgan FHS members to supplement the MI transcriptions in the older graveyards, especially where the headstones are now illegible. The majority of David Jones research is in Cardiff Library (not Glamorgan Archives) and is currently being transcribed for the Library by Jean Jones. Hopefully it will be available in electronic format there in the future.
