    1. Re: [POWYS] New Member Elan Village
    2. Hi Joy, My wife's Price family lived at the Gro Farm in the Elan Valley before the Dams were built, and had to leave then to Rhayader. There is much written about that era, and a Visitor Centre is now by the old school and first Dam area, with lots of books and other things to buy and see re the history there. Our local Powys FHS man and Cronicl Editor Lloyd Lewis in Rhayader can also help you in this I think, as he gave us a very good talk on the Elan Valley recently. The school records are lost I think, but Powys Archives here in Llandrindod Wells will have some records, and some of these are online for Schools,etc. Go to Internet:http://archives.powys.gov.uk and/or Email _archives@powys.gov.uk_ (mailto:archives@powys.gov.uk) for more info. A good small book to read is "The Elan Valley Railway" by Kidner ?? , with lots of history and many photo's of the early days there, and the Dams, School, and Village buildings, but many early ones were just wooden huts!!! I will send you the book details asap, as my copy is not to hand today. A GOLDBY family of engineers I know also went to NZ like yours and Lloyd Lewis has their history too. Best regards, Dennis Cleaton, RAD, Powys _dcleatond@aol.com_ (mailto:dcleatond@aol.com)

I know the problems researching Davies in the area first hand, as my 5x great-grandparents, John Daviesand Elizabeth (nee DAVIES) married in Llangammarch Church in 1778 and I am struggling to go further back than this. Can you please contact me off List, as there is a lady in America who may be researching the same family and if you give me your e-mail address, I will put you in touch? Looking forward to hearing from you. Alison

    3. Pictures of: Laugharne Castle and Church (CMN); and Canal Bridge, Swansea Valley (GLA) Dear Listers, I have just uploaded this week's Retrospectives onto my website. They include: 1. A selection of exterior shots of the historic Laugharne Castle and the local parish church, in the county of Carmarthenshire (seven pictures). This feature was first shown on 'Images of Wales' in March 1998. 2. A photograph of one of the bridges over the Swansea Vale Canal at Cwmtawe in the county of Glamorgan (nine pictures). This feature was one of the very first shown on 'Images of Wales' back in November 1997. As usual, these webpages will be on display for one week. 'Retrospective Images of Wales' is at www.jlb2005.plus.com/walespic/retro/retro.htm While there, take the time to explore my 'Webpage Archive' and make your own Retrospective requests.

    1. [POWYS] KEARN/BERRIEW
    2. samiun
    3. I wondered if anyone is researching the Kearn family in Montgomeryshire. They first appear in the Newtown area in 1789 but cant find any Kearns before that date. My greatx3 grandfather claimed to be born in Berriew in 1791 but l searched the parish records and the parishes around for a 5 year period and couldn't find any sign of him. Andy

    1. Re: [POWYS] Searching Jebidiah Davies connections
    2. Merv ntl
    3. Hello Alison Extremely hard with Davies being the most common name, so easy to muddle families, so here goes the basics of what I have: I have Jebidiah's father as Rees (Rhys) and he also had a brother named Rees in my notes, can't say where I got that from, think it was this mailing list at least 10 years ago. I will get organized ... honest! 11.12.1835 St Afans, Llanafan Fawr, JEBIDIAH DAVIES married Diana Thomas. Diana (bapt Dinah) was dau of John & Margaret Thomas of Llanafan. 26.1.1838 Troedrhiwdalar House, Llanafan a son Rees was born 15.1.1840 ditto a dau Margaret born 19.9.1841 Llwygurgan, Llanafan a son JOHN (my gt grdfthr) born 17.3.1844 Esgairgoch, Llanafan a son David born 1841 census at Llwyngwyn shows Jeb (independent means) and Dinah and a daughter aged 5 named Anne. I guess Rees and Margaret died in infancy. 1851 census at Wern Cottage, Llanganten (near Bluith Wells) shows Jeb now a butcher and Dinah with: Anne aged 15, John aged 10, David aged 7, Margaret aged 3 and Dinah aged 1 week. The two latter born Llanganten. 1861 census at The Rhew Llangammarch, Llanganten shows Jeb and Dinah with Margaret now 13 and Dinah 10. 1871 Census at Llanwern, Llanganten shows Jeb aged 73 now a farmer and Dinah aged 55, Anne aged 33 a charwoman and Dinah aged 20 a dressmaker. Jeb died Llanwern, Llanganten on 11.5.1871 (informant Anne Davies, dau) aged 73. 1881 Census at Fynonrhiw Llanganten shows Jeb's daughter Anne aged 45 now married to William Williams a general labourer with their dau Margaret Anne aged 2 and the widow Dinah aged 66. 1891 census Llanynis .... the Williams family with widow still plodding on. Jebs son JOHN DAVIES moved to coal fields in Aberdare ............. my paternal line ........
