I have a baptism of Alice Ann Barnes 3rd April 1878 at Wesleyan
Methodist,
Varteg, MON. Could anybody please tell me where this might be, and what
Parish I should be turning my attention to. Many thanks indeed
Jan Brettle
Varteg is a small village located mid way between Blaenavon & Abersychan,
and is on the border between the parishes of Trevethin & Aberystruth
(Blaina).
I think this is probably the family you are interested in, taken from the
1881 census, which shows the census place as Trevethin.
Dwelling: Slate Row
