Hi Jon
James Bird and family were there at 81 from at least 1910 to 1927. My
grandmother was one of his daughters. His son Daniel lived at 49 in 1901
and later at the Washery in Gwenberthi Road. I would like to know what
happened to Daniel, whi I believe was a blacksmith in the mines (don't know
which one!). Any news would be much appreciated.
My grandmother married Edgar Watkins from Ty Dan y Wal in Cwmtillery in
1910.
Thanks for your time.
Best regards
Iris

You didn't know of the Bird family at no. 81 or 49 Alma Street
did you?
Hi, no sorry that's a way down from us here. approx 50 houses or more, but
with a largish cemetery inbetween and a few roads it spreads that numbering
right down the other end of the street, much nearer to town. I had an uncle
who lived in 61 which was only a few doors away as the numbers went up in
two's, but that was going back quite a long time now, I was very young when
he moved to Cardiff. What sort of time frame are you talking of? I can ask
around and try and get some info for you .
take care, Regards
Jon
