Hi Everybody
New to this list!
Just found out my ancestor Howell DAVIES b 1883 was born in Mydrim, Carmathenshire and not
Bridgend, Glamorgan like I've thought for years.
He married Annie THOMAS b 1880, St Bride's Minor, Glamorgan. Just had Howell's
birth place confirmed found them on the 1911 and got in touch with a family member who has
a small family bible.
His father was also Howell b 1840, Cilrhedin, Carmarthenshire. Mother was Mary b 1840
Trelleck, Carmathenshire.
