Hi Pauline
Thanks very much for your help I'll give Cilycwm a try. Given that
'Chorthen' was so far removed form 'Catherine', I didn't know where to
look - apart from perhaps the first letter!

hi Sheila
Looked at the scan you sent to myself.....can see that Catherine? awful
spelling again was born in Llandovery, which at that time was Llandingat
parish, the parish above that was Cilycwm, so I believe that the parish
they
were from was Cilycwm.....
hope this helps
Pauline
