Late Father-in-Law a Welsh Miner moved North to SEAHAM area late 1920's and after marriage in 1933 he remained as we note his early Family were Schooled there until about 1936/7 before moving again. Has anyone got access to or can look him up in the SEAHAM PIT Registers please: 'Arthur John WOZENCROFT' of Knighton Powys WALES b. 1899? Grateful!

Hi Anne,
Thanks your renewed contact here, I have most of Arthur's History and Our Tree back to 1796 etc. excepting the Mining details. He was born as said in 1899 to John WOZENCROFT 1860-1929 & Elizabeth PINCHES 1869-1952. ! have tried to access the Registers stated but got nowhere and just wondered if a fellow GR might be able to look up. Between his Birth and Marriage I have scant knowledge to date.
Thanks anyway!
M.
