    3. Dear Listers Apologies for posting this.. but it might be of interest even if they were not born in the Dyfed/Glam area... Ena and Lily, 101 year old twins (Brecon area) can be seen looking at their own names on the 1911 census - both apparently very feisty and fit (see Video link below) http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-mid-wales-12861094 and here on a ITV short video… including an interesting tour of Old Swansea with local historian Colin James http://www.itv.com/wales/oldest-twins-101-sign-census46397/ .. look out for the mention of the "ironically named" Salubrious Passage… which led to the slummy area – and perhaps the ladies of the night as the Glamorgan List has discussed this subject recently !
