Dear Listers, I've just uploaded a new set of twenty-three 'Images of Wales' pictures onto my website. The feature illustrates a visit I made last June to the village of Bow Street, near Aberystwyth, Cardiganshire. Seventy-five years ago, my parents organised a scout camp near Bow Street, so as well as my own photographs of modern-day Bow Street, I've included a selection of their old black and white photos of the scout camp. 'Images of Wales' is at http://home.clara.net/wfha/walespic/ Enjoy!! :o) Best wishes, John ---------------------------------- John Ball, Ystalyfera, South Wales, UK E-mail: wfha@clara.co.uk Homepage: http://home.clara.net/wfha/ Welsh Family History Archive (WFHA): http://home.clara.net/wfha/wales/ --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Hi Dewi, This is a long shot, but worth a try. From the surnames you posted, I have Davies & Evans from Blaenafon, Twrgwyn and or, Twrgwyn Farm, Rhydlewis, Cardigan. The couple were David & Elizabeth (Evans) Davies (possible marriage time frame about 1843). I believe Elizabeth had inherited the farm (?when). However, when her husband, David died (?when), the farm was passed onto two daughters, Achsah (Davies) Croad and Ellen (Davies) James. In the 1891 census, Elizabeth is a widow, "living on her own means" and on the farm "Twrgwyn". Her son-in-law James T James (age 47) is the head of the household and farming the land, along with wife Ellen (age 30) and children Elizabeth (age 5) & Evan (age 4). Have my fingers crossed :-) Lesley (Sydney, Australia) _________________________________________________________________ Hot chart ringtones and polyphonics.

Hi Everyone! I've noticed that there have been some WILLIAMS finds lately and so I thought that I would post mine again. My grandmother was CATHERINE WILLIAMS, born in 1881. On 17 July1905 she married DAVID JONES (a collier) in the Register Office in BRIGEND. At that time her address was listed as 56 High Street PONTYCYMMER. Her father was listed as WILLIAM WILLIAMS (Master Mariner-merchant seaman.) CATHERINE AND DAVID JONES imigrated to SOUTH AFRICA in 1920/21 and eventually lost touch with family in WALES. Can anyone throw any light on my Williams'??? Cathrine Watson. _________________________________________________________________ Tired of spam?

Thanks Gareth for all your hard work in transcribing the 1895 Kelly's directory (in particular that of my favourite parish Llanddewi Brefi ) It has already helped me confirm that my G grandmother's brother John Jones was farming at Alltddu in 1895.

My Gt G.Father was Frederick Vaughan, born 10/1/1839 supposedly at ..TUCLUYDD, Wales, County not Known? His father was Henry Frederick Vaughan 3rd son of John Vaughan of Greengrove (and Jane Evans of Highmead)who took the additional name of Lloyd to inherit the Brynog (more correctly "Breinog" Estate;) in Aeron Valley near Trefilan his mother was Mary Anne(maybe Marianne) Caroline Catherine Griffies-Williams, dau of Sir George Griffies-Williams and & Anne Margaretta Evans (Dau of Herbert Evans of Highmead) so his parents were 1st Cousins(just by the way) I found the Marriage record on the IGI of the LGS Church, I found a baptismal record of his elder brother at the same church a year later ( St Peter & St Paul at Marlborough, Wilts) I found 2 younger brothers on IGI baptised at Wiston, Pembrokeshire in 1840's What I don't know and need help :------ 1. I cant find Tucluydd ??? but if the name was passed down by word of mouth here in Australia would Tyrllwyd in the Llangoedmor Parish sound like Tucluydd if pronounced in a Welsh accent to an ear used to the Australian flat accent?? Because in the list of Sheriffs of Cardiganshire posted by Gareth Hicks on 25/5/2003 shows a John Vaughan Lloyd of Tyllwyd in 1821 Now my John Vaughan Lloyd was married in 1788 but Burkes Landed Gentry does not show him as a Sheriff whereas his grandson Herbert is the Sheriff in 1862 and his father Edward Vaughan as Sheriff in 1775 , as per Gareth's list: Of course if you haven't guessed already this is the family and descendants of Dorothy Vaughan (nee Hill) Viscountess Lisburne in the 1700's STILL I cant find my G.Grandfather's birth place. And although it seems fairly certain this is his family I have no concrete connection , even though Herbert Millingchamp Vaughan (The South Wales Squires etc) visited Aus and my Grandparents in 1912/3 but thats all! SO any of Dorothy's descendants in Wales and I know there are some would love to hear from you. We have quite a large extended family in Aussie as Frederick Vaughan emigrated in about 1861 -2 he was first married in South Australia in 1864. My other interest is Glynne of Glyn Teyweryn, Montgomery so I have yet to post my interest there. Any Takers??? Wales played 2 magnificent games of Rugby against NZ and Eng. and were a trifle unlucky against Eng. Regards Joe Carter Blaxland NSW OZ

Is there anyone researching a Jones family Llainddu, Llanarth early 1800's ? As well as this request ,I would be interested to hear from anyone who might remember something similar to the following (no connection with the above ) As a child in the late 1940's early 1950's growing up in a little village (Cross Inn) outside New Quay ,Cards ,I vaguely remember that during the school summer holidays , a group of children would arrive in the village and the school would be used to house the children .This occured regularly for a few years. There didn't appear to be any connection between these children and the local kids and I can't remember ever seeing them other than occasionaly when they were playing in the school yard. . We were told to keep away from the school whilst they were there. I think they were orphans,there didn't appear to be more than few adults accompaning them. I wonder if other schools in Cards did the same and could tell me more about Ihe children .I would be interested to hear . Diolch yn fawr , Hwyl, Buddug

Hello Dewi. I have DAVIES's in Abertystwyth. On the 1881 census they were living at Royal Oak, Llanrhysted Haminiog, the names are Richard DAVIES, Elizabeth his wife, Mary Ann, Jane and Elizabeth his daughters, my grand father Richard Morgan DAVIES was born until 1882. Any connection with your DAVIES's?? Ann Ontario, Canada.

Hi Joe <1. I cant find Tucluydd ??? but if the name was passed down by word of mouth here in Australia would Tyrllwyd in the Llangoedmor Parish sound like Tucluydd if pronounced in a Welsh accent to an ear used to the Australian flat accent?? Because in the list of Sheriffs of Cardiganshire posted by Gareth Hicks on 25/5/2003 shows a John Vaughan Lloyd of Tyllwyd in 1821> I would say that this is definitely the same place. The luydd bit of Tucluydd could certainly be an attempt at a phonetic spelling of the llywd of Tyllwyd. The Tuc bit is probably a mixup over the pronounciation of the ll in Tyllwyd .

Hi Listers, While most of my research has been in Birmingham, I have recently discovered that my G-G-G-Grandparents, Henry and Ann Flower, married in Llanbadan Fawr in 1824 and their first child was baptised in 1827. On looking at the Bishop's Transcript it reveals that Henry was a publican at the Piccadilly Public House. Would anyone know anything about this building or be able to tell me where I can look up something about it on the internet? Would there be a record of ownership or staff listed somewhere? The family must have returned to Birmingham soon after 1827 because all of the other children were born there. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Diane (Melbourne, Australia)

I have Nathaniel EVANS b. Llanybydder 1796. I believe his father was Evan THOMAS of Honvas Fach. He married Elinor MORGAN b.Aberystwyth 1797 in 1815 in Merthyr Tydfil GLA. Need her birth. Any help in finding anything about these two Greatly appreciated. Marie in Maine
