Pat Stedman!!
Having problems connecting to your website.
I managed to read a little of your page and then failed to get it back.
All my mothers family by the name of Lewis and Ruddick,are from the village
of Camerton in the parish of Clutton.Having read through your Clutton
family, I can find no apparent link.
My Evans family were originally from Nantyglo Abertillery and Panteg.My
Evans family married into Rees and Matthews. Great grandmother and Great
aunts called Francis Rees.
We share the same name interests but they don't seem to connect.
Although I now live in Crickhowell, in the Brecon Beacons national park, I
was born in Six Bells Abertillery, where I later taught for twenty years.
As my subject was history I have a keen interest in the area.
Our town was settled by the Somerset mining families after the North
Somerset coal field was more or less worked out.
The names you have on your web site, read like my old class register, all
very familiar, and families well known in the area.
Sorry I can't be more help.
Im still looking for the Nee name of a Caroline Evans, married to William
Evans with children Benjamin (illigitimate),James, Stephen,Wiliam,Isaac,and
Shadrack.
She gives her place of birth as Twyn Blaen Nant 1826.
So farI have failed to find a marriage or birth relating to this family and
yet I have traced them from the 1851 census through to the 1881.
Anyone out there with suggestions as to my next step?
Mags Williams Nee Evans.
