    1. [VABUCKIN-L] Welsh history
    2. For anyone. I visited Buckingham County a number of years ago and discovered a cemetery with numerous tombstones written in the Celtic tongue of the Welsh. I notice there is a SLATE river. Welshmen mined slate and coal, etc. I also notice many names of Welsh decent, i.e., JONES, RICE, WILLIAMS, EVANS, HOWELL, etc. Was there a reason, time period, settlement for the Welsh-ness (if you will) in Buckingham county?
