LeaMarie Hello LeaMarie I have found just one example of a Christian name like Warriett and that is in the 1891 census - 11 year old Wariotte G. Morgans living at Rhos, Llandewi Velfrey, just to the east of Narberth. His father Morris Morgans (76 years old) was born in Cilymaenllwyd. His wife Mary aged 40 is presumably his second wife. In 1891 there was a Greenway Farm and a Greenway House in Narberth. Greenway Farm is still in existence - in Station Road, Narberth - less than 400 yards from Narberth Railway Station. Login is a village in the parish of Cilymaenllwyd (Carmarthenshire) which is about 5-7 miles north east of Narberth (Pembrokeshire). Merthyr Tydfil is in the county of Glamorgan about 50 miles to the east. Gerry Lewis

    1. [WLS-PEM] Bettye, here is a HEYWOOD query for you.
    2. j.e. higginson
    3. February 14, 2004, Hello Bettye, On Fri, 13 Feb 2004, you wrote: but there is always my drop of Hayward/Heywood/Haward/Howard blood... Bettye, your Heywood name is of interest to me and I thought that I would send you my little selection. Here is what I have so far: The following was taken from the Channel Islands 1851 census index: Ann HAYWOOD, age 62, b. USA, daughter Sarah, age 24, b. Ireland, son Thomas, age 22, b. England. On the 1851 Channel Islands census index, Ann had an older daughter named Hailey/Alice/Aley (married name Buttery), age 27, b. Ireland. There was no husband listed for Ann on the 1851 Channel Islands census index but on the 1861 Channel Islands census index she was listed as a widow. The maiden surname spelling for Hailey/Alice/Aley on one of her children's birth certificates was HEYWOOD. My wish is to find where Ann was born in U.S.A. and what her husband's name was. And also where her children were born in Ireland and England. Could it be that some of this is related to your line? Sincerely. Joan. _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: smart spam protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail http://join.msn.com/?page=dept/bcomm&pgmarket=en-ca&RU=http%3a%2f%2fjoin.msn.com%2f%3fpage%3dmisc%2fspecialoffers%26pgmarket%3den-ca

    1. Re: [WLS-PEM] Crinow Crinw Theravon Tenby
    2. Dynbach
    3. Lea Marie, The railway line you write of is the Pembroe & Tenby Railway which opened up between Whoitland and Tenby in August 1866. The railway station is Narberth which is a little way outside the main township of Narberth (not much) but like all railway companies, they built the station next to the line, not the town or village! Crinow is a parish just to the east-south-east of Narberth proper. Hope this helps.

    3. Hi Rose I've managed to trace my father's Irish ancestry (County Longford) back to the early 1800s which is quite an achievement. (The local rectors never got around to forwarding their parish records to Dublin as they should - thank God!) Ironically, if I could only trace them back a couple of hundred years more I would probably end up back in England!

    2. Pat Powell
    3. Hello - sorry you didn't give your name I think most of the "names" are giving the place or house where each person lived. e.g Jennie Tymawr Tymawr mean "big house" which is sometimes the actual name of the house and sometime a reference to a karge house in the area. Similarly Penbont (top of the bridge) is most likely to be the name of the house or farm. I would guess Crinw is Crinow a place in Pembrokeshire although in 1851 a family of Morgans were living in a household called "Crinow Glebe" in Llandissilio. This is the 1851 census entry - do they fit in with your family? If you send me all the details in the letter off-list I will try to identify as much as I can for you. 1851 Llandissilio enumdist 9c schedule 44 Crinow Glebe George Morgan Head M 55 Farmer 19 acres born Cmn Kilymaenllwyd Elizabeth Morgan wife M 55 PEM New Moat George Morgan son U 16 carpenter Cmn Laugharne Look forward to hearing from you Cheers Pat In message <[email protected]>, [email protected] writes >Hi!

    2. According to "History of Little England" by Laws, HAVARD was a name of Norse origins. I wonder whether the Hayward/Howard family were originally from Pembs. or from England? I note Francis Jones also sites their estate in Surrey - perhaps they are not of the same family of Havard. Rose
