Thanks to 'Luned in Tasmania' - just returned from holiday and saw your very helpful advice. Question now is - how do I check the Goytre and Llanover Registers? I think what my question really needs to be now, is .... How can I check ALL Parish Registers for areas surrounding Abergavenny? Sarah WATERS is certainly not on Mike Johns Transcripts for Abergavenny at all; there is no matching Sarah WATERS on IGI; Parish Registers are the most reliable source, so is there anything for sale , re Monmouthshire, that I should consider? Perhaps a local Genealogy or Family History Society has that type of material for sale? Any information or suggestions appreciated. Kind regards, Dawn (Tasmania, Australia.)
