I am trying to research my grandfathers side of the family but I don't have a large amount of information. I am looking for my cousins who moved to Grangetown around about 1935-1950. My g-g-grandmothers maiden name was Donald, she had about 5-12 children one being my great-great grandfather named Arthur Ronald Hill (b. 18 Sept 1911). He had a sister that was believed to have been named Lily/Lilian/Lillian. She partnered a black man and has a son who was born around 1930-1937. My grampy can't remember his cousins name so that is what makes it extra hard. He has a slight feeling he would have been named Donald? ... But if anyone could find an individual named Lilian(?) Hill with parents name possibly Mark Hills and Jeanne Donald then please let me know

if you're interested Daniel, there are two Donald's in the present Cardiff telephone directory

There were three in the 1970 Kelly's Directory for Cardiff

In Stuart's posting, that should be Pantbach Road

Thanks for the help so far, I will definitely inform you soon. I am in the process of receiving the Birth Certificate of Arthur R Hill so it may say the proper parents names.

Another thread started today about the same person. Keep to one thread about the same family Daniel, so all the information is in one place and helpers aren't chasing around for what has already been found
