Diane There's a lot of Llanbadarn Fawr stuff here: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~ceredigwynd/llanbadarn-index.html but I could see no BRODIEs in a quick search. David Canberra > Am researching the John BRODIE family of Aberystwyth. > > What I have thus far is as follows: > > John BRODIE (born in Dunbar, Scotland on 22 Feb 1793) came to Aberystwyth > between 1821 and 1823/4, after military service. > > He was a shoemaker by trade and moved to Aberystwyth with his wife, Hannah > (possibly also listed as Anna) and two children, James and Elizabeth. In > later years, there is mention of the birth of additional children, Richard, > William John and Ann BRODIE. > > William is listed, in the 1861 census, as being born in Llanbadarn in > 1823/24 with the others listed as being born in Aberystwyth. > > It seems that John BRODIE was married three times: the first Hannah BRODIE > (mother of his children) is buried in Aberystwyth, age 40, in November, > 1830. His second wife, also Hannah BRODIE was buried April 1841, age 53. > After this, John moved to Manchester and remarried, where he died in 1844. > > My first query would be concerning the parish registers for > Aberystwyth/Llanbadarn and any mention of the BRODIE family therein. Any > assistance from fellow listers would be greatly appreciated. > > Sincerely, > > Diane Hungate > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > ==== WLS-CARDIGANSHIRE Mailing List ==== > Rootsweb list archives[ threaded] > http://archiver.rootsweb.com/WLS-Cardiganshire-L/ >
