Someone asked a while back about the meaning of Welsh names of places. I found this site that will translate Welsh to English words. It has been most useful for me. http://www.cs.brown.edu/fun/welsh/LexiconForms.html The best place for post code and reverse seraches is the Royal Mail's own site at: http://www.royalmail.com/quick_tools/postcodes/default.htm URL: http://www.gazetteer-wales.co.uk > TITLE: The National Gazetteer of Wales > DESCRIPTION: The National Gazetteer of Wales is the most comprehensive > online source of geographical information relating to Wales.

You are now on my list for the Dragon, if and when I recover him. In the meantime I have found another dragon, so young that he?she is still in the egg. You may find him at : www.red-dragon-wales.com marriage bonds http://www.llgc.org.uk:81/index.htm Use this one and when it comes up there is a searchable data on top of the page. Go to marriage bonds and it will give you the names in the parish.
