    3. If you look at www.freebmd.org.uk you will find a marriage in Newport in March quarter 1923 of Albert L LNANNING and Emily DAYMOND. There do not seem to have been any LANNING births in succeeding years with mother's maiden name shown as DAYMOND. However she may have been a widow, as Albert Edward S DAYMOND married in Sep Qr 1907 to Emily LAURENCE born about 1886. Albert E S DAYMOND died in December quarter 1918 aged 32, probably leaving two children born 1910 and 1914. In 1911 census Albert DAYMOND ran a grocer's shop in Corporation Road. There don't seem to be any LANNING births after 1923 with mother's maiden name LAURENCE either. I have not found a death for Albert in Newport. He may have moved elsewhere in old age, perhaps to live with or near step-son's family. There is a death in 1961 of an Albert E Lanning in Middlesex which may be relevant.

    3. Hi Listers, Just recently -- out of the blue -- I received some information of a gr uncle -- Albert Lionel LANNING - and I would love to find some more information on him. Without getting into too many details, in 1957 he would have been living @ 63 Corporation Rd in Newport and would have been abt 68. I have no further information on his death or marital status. Very briefly he had a fascinating background. In 1914, he was a Buckinghamshire Constable, rejoined the Coldstream Guards, went to Mons in 4 engagements, was severely wounded, captured by the Germans however ended up in a French Hospital and returned to England quite disabled. I would love to learn more about "Gr Uncle Lionel" and any information, regardless of how insignificant, would be very much appreciated. Cheers, Ted LANNING, West Vancouver, BC Can

    3. I am helping a friend with her family history research, tracing her LEES side of the family. We have a marriage found on Free BMD Hilda Minnie Jones( born Kington, Herefordshire)to Frederick w Lees 1912 Bedwelty. Hilda was living in Tredegar with her parents in 1901. The IGI gives the grooms name as William Frederick Lee. So many Lee and Lees in census returns, is anyone able to shed light on this entry before my elderly friend shells out for a copy of the certificate. Thank you. If a thought came into my head it would die of loneliness

    1. [MON] Parish Banns & Marriage Record
    2. Chris Prince
    3. Hi, I have found Banns and Marriages Records for Edward Makey and Mary Howells in October / November 1865. But am a little confused as to where it all took place. I found the records on Find My Part, but the three record all have different Place names. Not knowing Wales and having looked at a map the places aren't next to one another so I am unsure where they did married. 1. Banns Place Llantrisaint Fawr, Monmouthshire Oct 25, Nov 5, Nov 12 1865 Both form Parish of Llanover. 2. Marriage Record, Place Llangattock Juxta Caerleon, Monmouthshire and on the copy of the Parish Register it has Parish Church of Llanover. And both Edward and Mary from Blaenavon. 3. Marriage Record Parish Llanover Church of st Batholomew, Monmouthshire no copy available Record 1 & 2 and form Monmouthshire Banns and Marriage Transcripts from Welsh Archive Services/Gwasanaethau and the 3rd record is from Gwent FHS marriages, by Gwent Family History Society. Can someone please help me to unsure why three different place and what church they married in. Hope someone can help. Kind Regards Chris

    1. Re: [MON] Parish Banns & Marriage Record
    2. Jeff Coleman
    3. You should bear in mind that many of the images of parish registers on Findmypast from Monmouthshire, Glamorgan and Carmarthenshire have been catalogued wrongly. Parts of Blaenavon were in Llanover parish, and Gwent FHS is most unlikely to have got confused about what parish register they were transcribing. The only reason that Banns would be called at Llantrissent (Llantrisaint Fawr) would be that one or both parties were living there at the time, although their normal place or residence was Llanover. Have a look at other Banns on the same or adjoining pages to see if you can work out what place the book refers to.

    2. The Lewis family
    3. Hi Nicola My, you are quick. Yes, I thought the story was well-known but I would like to have confirmation of it from some source or other. Would the Free Press carry it? The major reason that I want it confirmed is that my Dad said that he had seen the body in the river and alerted a passer-by about it. He said that he never heard any more about it at the time except that it was a young man. I want to know because of something my Dad said that he had heard later. The young man had either been due to return to the Western Front or was about to be conscripted into the army. As for Pontnewynydd Primary School, I read on the school website that the local council were thinking of closing it. What would they do with it and where would the local children go as a result of its closure? It has always been a landmark for me on my visits to my grandmother, aunt and cousin, standing out as the only red brick building in the vicinity. >From Google Earth's Street view, admittedly about 3 years old, the building looks as if it could do with some TLC with some mis-shapen windows due to subsidence and probably other hidden faults. If it were that age here in WA it would be declared a heritage building and the only way it could be closed and demolished is if someone came along and burned it down one night. Don't laugh, it's already happened at least 5 times ( 4 Hotels and one large primary school ) to my knowledge, though they caught the people who burned down the school. Thanks for the offer about the school records. Dad was there from about 1915 to about 1921/2. If you have anything from those years his name was Raymond Rees Lewis and he lived in Snatchwood Road. Gwent Archive said that they would get back to me when I emailed them a few days ago so that's why I asked about them on the list. I emailed the principal also to ask about records and photographs but I expect she's so busy defending her school, staff and students that she hasn't had any time to reply yet. When I retired in 1999 as a full time high school teacher, I did a few years as a relief (supply) teacher in a number of schools in the area. They were and still are so short of high school teachers that I could have worked five days a week if I had wanted. The same probably applies in Torfaen. Once again thanks for your quick reply and interest in my request. Regards Ray On 18/09/2013 4:56 PM, NICOLA THOMAS wrote: > Ray > This is a well known story in Pontnewynydd. <snipped>

    2. The Lewis family
    3. G'day everybody After some time I am finally back to posting on the Monmouthshire list and hope that someone will be able to help me confirm a story that my late father told me about his childhood in Abersychan.The bare bones are that when he was about 8 or 9 (1917 - 1918) a man had drowned in the Avon Llwyd in Abersychan and that his body had been found under or near the road bridge connecting Snatchwood Road and what he called Freehold Land. I know where he meant and I believe that the bridge is now open for pedestrian access only though when I was a child it was open for all forms of traffic. He also said that he thought the man had gone into the water somewhere further up the valley. What I would like to know is, whether the story is true, if it was reported in the Free Press and if a coroners inquest had been held? I want to include the story in a short biography of my Dad that I am finally compiling, some 14 years after his death. I'd also like to find out about his school records and have contacted the Gwent Archives to find if they have the attendance and any school photographs for his time at Pontnewynydd Primary School. I also know that he was a good swimmer and was a member of some sort of swimming club or team at Pontypool for part of the time between about 1924 and when he left to join the Welsh Guards in 1928. Is there anyone on the list who can help? Yours in anticipation Ray Lewis Hazelmere Western Australia

    1. Re: [MON] Ann LLewellyn and William Morgan of Ebbw Vale.
    2. Jeff Coleman
    3. The 1851 image suggests that William was born in Llandingat ( the parish that includes Llandovery) http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/wal/CMN/Llandingad/index.html around 1820 and Ann born what appears to be something like Llangerris or Llangarris or Llanyerris In 1861 William is mysteriously older, born about 1813 in 'Tingcat', Carmarthenshire - again likely to be Llandingat but Ann is from 'Llanyrwse' which might perhaps be Llan-y-Crwys and born about 1821 http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/wal/CMN/Llan-y-Crwys/index.html In 1871 William now 56 (about 1815) was again from Llandingad and Ann 51 (1820) born Llangwrist which again might perhaps be Llanycrwys (Llancrwys) The place they both lived in 1845 marriage register was Penycae. There is a modern Heol Pen-y-cae in Beaufort, above Ebbw Vale, but this may not be near the same place. Pen y cae is simply 'top of the field' so is quite a common location name in Wales. Neither signed their name, so may not have been able to read or write, and this may have contributed to attempts by successive census enumerators to render places of birth phonetically. There was a William Morgan baptised in Llandingad (Llandingat) 22 December 1816 son of Samuel and Sarah Morgan of Llandovery. Samuel was a labourer. There was an Anne Llewellyn baptised 11 October 1818 in Llanarthne, daughter of John Llewellyn, Carpenter, of Brynspyddit, and an Anne Llewelyn baptised 10th March 1816 daughter of David and Anne Llewelyn, Farmer, of what appears to be Peodefach. Neither seems to fit. In 1845 William was a Shearer, presumably in an iron works. The early children seem to have been born in Nantyglo In 1851 he was a Shearer In 1861 a Shearer at Iron Works, with two sons who were puddlers There was a William Morgan age '25' with wife Anne '25' and son David 2, none born in county, at Nantyglo Iron Works in 1841 census - he was a puddler. There were a married miner and an unmarried collier, neither born in Monmouthshire, in Tredegar age 25 in the same census. William Morgan is a fairly common name at the time, but there was one aged 25, born in County, an agricultural labourer in the hamlet of Trecastle, Llandilofawr parish, Carmarthenshire in 1841. May I assume that you are fairly sure that you have the right marriage? They were shown as bachelor and spinster there.

    1. Re: [MON] All Quiet on the Monmouthshire front

    3. It has been quiet so here's a question: Can anyone help me find the father of Walter Nicholas G CREW Birth: Jul 1876 - Bedwellty, Monmouthshire? The G is for Gates (his mother's name) His father is Charles Crew. His mother was Sarah GATES in service 1871, aged 16, in Clerkenwell London (along with her sister Jane) b Gt Yarmouth. next census she was back In Gt Yarmouth with Walter as a visitor. I have had no luck what so ever with this. There are several candidates in London at the right time but I have been unable to connect to any Monmouth Crew family. It seems that there was Crew migration between Suth Wales and Gloucestershire and Wiltshire. One clue is that Walter has his father as Charles crew, civil engineer, on his (Scottish) marriage cert and Sarah has him as the father of her daughters, Abgail and Rosetta. The latter in spite of declaring that she was widowed on the 1891 census. Rosetta, herself a "bit of a lass", was my paternal grandmother. Any assistance or ideas gratefully received.
