Hi Everyone, I'm trying to find my Cunningham family from the merthyr and Monmouthshire areas.... There are connections to a Crowley family and it has been mentioned by my granddads sister that there are also connections to a Denner family from Tredegar. On looking through church records i came across several Cunninghams with connections to Denner, Lane and Driscoll. Can anyone help?. Regards Julie

Hi, I have Mary Cunningham bn 1883 in Ebbw Vale, sibling to John bn abt 1888, Dowlais Glam and William bn abt 1890, Dowlais Glam. Parents were Ellen and possibly John?. Ellen remarried Daniel Crowley in Bedwelty 1904. On her marriage certificate it states her dad was Thomas Welsh/Walsh. Unable to find her first marriage to a male Cunninham and would be greatful if anyone could help.....Thankyou ..
