For the recent relatives I would try Friends Reunited, Facebook, electoral register.

As far as I can tell Varteg is in the pontypool area - there is this Ancestry entry but the birth year is rather out.. Do you have Abraham's occupation? This one is a collier.

Must have lied about her age then. A woman's prerogative!
