I am hoping that with luck they may have a burial book. This is one of my direct ancestors but he is not buried there as he married a girl from Boughrood named Elizabeth Lewis who lived in Boatside Cottage in Boughrood. Her father was Howell Lewis a tailor. Thomas worked at Cwm's Mill and the couple moved to Dowlais in Merthyr Tydfil and are buried in Cefn Coed Cemetery. Joshuah and Elizabeth Jones Thomas Jones parents may be buried at Maesyronnen. Thomas son of Joshuah of Cwm's Mill by Elizabeth his wife in the parish of Glasbury was baptised 16 September 1827. All the best and thanks Heather Smith in West Yorkshire Sent: Wednesday, April 25, 2007 12:00 AM Subject: Re: [POWYS] BRE-Talgarth-POWELL/HOWELL HARRIS Thanks Heather, The Maesyronnen Chapel at Glasbury is just off the main Hereford road East, and can be seen from the road. It was a Presbyterian Chapel (linked to Trefecca Chapel I think), and is now a United Reformed Church I'm told. It is well signposted, but I have not been to it as yet. I think it has a stone wall surround with some graves, but I will check and get a photo for you soon, and info ref the graves. Best wishes, Dennis.
