i don't want to trace them further back for I confirmed yesterday in the 1911 census that I was on to the correct Lewis family. I now hopefully would like someone from my family to contact me.
Thanks for your help
Yes Ann I did mean Gilfach

John it's me from the other thread!
Does Bargoed come under Glamorgan? There is a Glamorgan family history society, might be worth a look. Also, if you google Gilfach Church you will find 2 churches there. Maybe they could help?
