Hello Ruth. More info from the www.olle.co.uk site forum: On the 1901 census which would have taken place in April, Ashby manor Lloyd street was the home of Diana Hughes, originally from Monmouth, Usk. her Occupation was Boarding house keeper. The other five occupants were servants and visitors. One of the visitors was a Nurse possibly the companion of one Fanny Rickets a photographer from Welshpool. It's possible that people visited Llandudno and stayed at boarding houses for health reasons - the sea air and bathing was said to have healing properties at the time! At a different time the house may have been a Convalescent home of which there seem to have been a few in Llandudno. The properties mentioned on the same page are Caradoc House, Brinkburn House, Maelgwyn Hotel, Bodnod House,Westminster Hotel, Central Hotel and the New Town Hall as well as the Welsh Wesleyan Chapel. As there are many large houses in the Lloyd Street area it would be difficult to find out which one was Ashby Manor if it has since been renamed - the name suggests it might be a fairly grand place. The Brinkburn and the Bodnod were amalgamated alongside several other hotels to become the Ambassador hotel. This might indicate that Ashby Manor has amalgamated with another hotel at some point, or might be one of the large buildings that now incorporate the shops leading away from the St Georges and the one opposite (The Queens?) This link gives an excellent potted history of what is now The Ambassador http://www.hotelambassador.co.uk/historyhotel.html Hope this is helpful. Heddwch Mike.

Does anyone have connections to the Morgan Family in Llangorse, Tal Y Llyn and Talgarth areas ? John Morgan c1771 was a farmer at Llwynbedw (?). His son David Morgan c1812 was a farmer at Kingshead Farm Rhiannon

Thank you Bryn. My interests lie in the Machynlleth area and I am finding I need to search records in Montgomeryshire, Cardiganshire and Merionethshire. All your efforts are much appreciated. best wishes, Pam (in France)

(Forwarding for Roger Scott Lewis who apparently wasn't subscribed at the time he sent this message.) Julie Preston juliefpreston@sbcglobal.net ----------------------- Daphne, This reply is for the Daphne who is searching for Elinor Price in Nantmel and who was a "native" of Llanafan Fawr and who died at Llwynipiod (Magpie Grove.) I too have a Bible with this entry and it goes back to 1719.I probably have the same Edwards line as well. Please contact me ASAP at my e-mail address: cousinroger@hotmail.com Roger Scott Lewis.

Hi all, I recently acquired some wills from 1600 &1700's of various Hergest's who feature in some of the trees I have managed to piece together.But unfortunately they come from the Parish of Llandefalle in Breconshire (modern day Powys) Wales.A Parish whose records went missing, although there are incomplete bishops transcripts of Llandefalle which,I have transcribed where appropriate there are still massive gaps does anyone else have suggestions of where else I may look for info? Best regards Adam of the Hargest/Hergest & Bindoff One-Name Studies registered with the Guild of One Name Studies 4334 See below http://www.one-name.org/profiles/hargest.html also Member of the Society of Genealogist's number 033515 http://www.sog.org.uk and supporter of No2ID - www.no2id.net <a href="http://www.noliberties.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.noliberties.com/img/banners/tl_web_banner.jpg" alt="Taking Liberties" width="463" height="242" border="0" /></a>

Daphne, Too many coincidences, Do you know where your John Lewis came from? Are you connected to the Edwards' of Llywel whose family tree was worked on by Gus Edwards of Trecastle, formerly a builder in Tredegar. Regards Roger

You may have noticed that most parishes online so far ar in northern Monts, which is where we began the project. I'm afraid that it will be quite some time before we get to the southern bits! Bryn

Hello Rhiannon Quote from Family Bible:- "John Lewis was married to Elinor PRICE at Nantmel in the Spring of 1790 she was born in 1750 Native of Llanafonfawn and died at Llwyngfriod March 20th 1806 and burried Nantmel" Does this Elinor PRICE fit into your family tree? I do hope I've spelt the place names correctly. This Bible was the property of my grandmother who was an EDWARDS. My main line is EDWARDS and LEWIS of which I have had a great deal of help from Lloyd in Cwmdauddwr. Regards Daphne

I think this will be helpful to those wondering if your publications can help them. I'm just waiting for more publications to be available. My primary interest is in Trefeglwys parish. I applaud your efforts. Katherine Benbow ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

Heather, Reference the Prices Reading "ROOTS and BRANCHES" I find that in 1753 an indenture was enterred into between 1. Morgan Watkin 2. Thomas Price, Llwynonn and Watkin Williams, Defynnog 3. Rees Price, Llwynonn (father of Thomas Price and Rachel Price his eldest daughter. The indenture released to use (prior to the marriage of Morgan Watkin and Rachel Price) of messuages and lands known as T'yr Nant Ceinog, T'yr Meyty(now Meity) otherwise t'yr Meredydd Whyth and T'yr Meyty Issa in the parish of Llywel Does this fit with your knowledge of the family? although the dates seem out of context with your note, so this could be a generation earlier.
