Did you ever hear anything from Groeswen Chapel? Weren't they going to send you some information? Re: Mary Jane Morgan & David Lewis wedding.

Just curious.

I am looking for a James Jones born in Monmouth circa 1801 .He married I believe a Mary Underhill( from Thornbury in Gloucestershire) in Itton Monmouthshire and their first child was a James Jones born in Gloucestershire any help with this family would be gratefully received as it is vert difficult to trace a Jones in Wales

Karen Think "synagogue" was originally the Welsh Baptist Tabernacle before a museum - lovely old building. Just by the most famous Ponty landmark which is the old bridge - a superb feat of bridge building in its day. The defunct shopping centre is directly opposite the Museum

Aberdare is a lovely place, I think. Dare Valley is a great place for pony trecking up in the hills, isn't it. The people who run the farm in the centre of Dare Valley are so pleasant and helpful. One of the cwms above Aberdare is one of my favourite places in Wales. It is called Cwmaman. Wonderful wood sculptures, well marked out trail walks and a cafe that is quite extraordinary. For valley prices, you can get a huge variety of tea and coffee, home made cakes and an owner who is really knowledgeable about the history of the village.

Karen

Have got some holiday at end of November. If you pm me (or put it on this thread), say 3rd week in November, with a list of what you are looking for, I would be quite happy to spend a couple of half days there. I can then gaze across at this ruin that used to be the Taff Vale shopping centre - quite a worry for Ponty methinks as the new shopping centre was meant to be the "flagship" of the town re-development.

Ann, I had "intelligent but erratic" on an early report. We don't change, do we. :-)

Have just thought of something to do when I retire next year - do some research in Ponty Library. Bad news today about the new Taff Vale complex in Ponty - developer in administration. :-( :-(
