Hi The admission records for Pontnewynydd school are at Gwent Archives in Ebbw Vale and according to the list I have begin 1904 when the new school opened. There don't seem to be admission books for the earlier school.

Are any of the records online? And finally, does anyone know if the records are in the Gwent Archives? My g/father Ernest Davies, was living in Pontnewynydd in the 1891 census, aged 8, so I am hoping they do. Thank you , Roy Davies ------------------------------
