Four Generations at a Wedding.-Along with photograph.
Four generations were represented at the wedding at Barry Docks of Mr. George BENNETT, eldest son of Capt. and Mrs. BENNETT, Barry Island, and Miss Doris LEVERS, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.E. LEVERS, Court-road, Barry Dock.
Seen in the group are Mr. J.E. LEVERS (great-grandfather), Mr. J.E. LEVERS, (grandfather), Mr. W.J. LEVERS (father) and Master John LEVERS. (son).
Four young men named Reginald GAUGHAN 23, Cecil Victor WILLIAMS 22, Thomas JONES 20, and Elby ROBERTS 22, were charged on remand at Cardiff Police-court on Saturday with violently robbing Noah EDWARDS, a fuel worker, of Mynachdy, of a number of articles of clothing of the value of £4 on Friday night, June 18.
Mr. Northcott HOWELL appeared for the defence of GAUGHAN, and Mr. C.S. HALLINAN appeared for ROBERTS and JONES.
They were each fined £5 and costs.
PONTYPOOL DISCOVERY.
Pontypool miners have discovered a seam of coal near the surface of Penygarn and are working what is described as a coal of good combustible quality.
The seam is well to the east of the river, and Mr. T. CORDY, landlord of the New Tree Inn, Trevithin, who is a practical miner, and who is responsible for finding the seam, contends that many years ago there was a colliery at the spot, and that the coal now being worked formed the pillars left by the miners in by-gone days.
The ground belongs to the Pontypool Park Estate.
Quite a lengthy court case- excuse my shortened version.
Allegations of a son demanding money by threats from his mother were made at Carmarthen County Police-court on Saturday in a case in which Mrs. Mary BEVAN, Broadlay, Ferryside, applied for sureties of the peace against her son, David Sidney Jones BEVAN 37, a travelling draper of 46, Carlton-terrace, St. Helen's, Swansea.
Mr. H. Brunel WHITE, solicitor, Carmarthen for Mrs. BEVAN.
Mrs. BEVAN, who lived with her two single daughters. Her son made repeated visits to Broadlay, where he demanded money. Mrs. BEVAN had given him sums totalling between £1,500 and £1,600.
Many visits he made demanding by threats of sums of £20, and £30..
Defendant said his business had been badly hit by the coal strike.
The Chairman (Alderman H.E.B. RICHARDS): Why should she give you £100?. I have here IOU's that you have given her for the sums of £500 in April 1911, and £400 in February 1914.
Defendant: I am down and out, and I have to go somewhere for money. I am not a waster or a straggler, but, to tell you in plain English, I am "stumped."
The Chairman, in binding defendant over in the sum of £50 to keep the peace for twelve months. He also added "that you have proved yourself a wastrel, and your mother has at last come to seek protection from you.
RECENT WILLS.
Mr. David MORGAN, of Myrtle House, Baltonsborough, Somerset, formerly traffic manager of the Bute Docks and Rhondda Branch of the Taff Vale Railway Company, who died on January 28, left estate of the gross value of £5,771,with net personalty £4,499.

Mr. Frank DAVIES (instructed by Mr. Vaughan EDWARDS) prosecuted, and Mr. Trevor HUNTER (instructed by Mr. Henry THOMPSON) defended.
Pleading for leniency, Mr. HUNTER said arrangements were being made to give prisoner a fresh start in the Colonies.
Mr. Hugh BELLINGHAM, solicitor, Swansea, and Mr. L.G. JEFFREYS all gave evidence as to prisoner's previous good character.
Saying that he thought this was a case in which there was a strong probability of prisoner being successful in his efforts to retrieve himself, the Recorder directed that he be bound over for twelve months.
Giving evidence at the inquest on Saturday on Clifford DAVIES, a boy who fell off the Swansea pier, May PROSSER, of New-street, said that about 8.30 p.m. she was walking along the pier with a companion, when she heard a splash. She ran to the side, and saw the boy stuggling in the water. Her friend went up to a gentleman, who was passing with a girl, but he did not take a bit of notice.
The Coroner; He was not much of a gentleman, was he ?- No.
He made no effort at all?- No. He looked over the side and passed on. She (the girl) must have told him come to "Come on."
The Coroner: Nothing to be very proud of.
Police-constable SEABURY, Great Western Railway Harbour Police, said he went to the pier, and as the tide receded, he climbed to the the river bed with four other men, and eventually found the body. Ther was a deep wound above each eye.
A verdict of " Death from drowning by accidentally falling into the river off the West Pier" was recorded.

Hello All,
I have received a death cert recently and Im at a loss to work out what is stated as cause of death.
The registrar uses exaggerated loops ....Im used to looking up Latin terms of cause of death but this one is difficult.
I believe the first letter is an "s" as you can compare to other words..... e.g. shoemaker and I think the 3rd letter is an "m".
I'll gladly add attachment in e mail for those who would like to help me.
Forgive me if I don't reply to all ....I'll givea general thanks here as I'm snowed under today/tomorrow.
Also, a general question (unrelated to this death)....... a death cert would not be issued if a criminal case followed (until after criminal case?)....is this correct and the norm in "all" cases?
Best regards, Kevin.

HI, There is an Extracted Parish record for a Joan MILWARD ,Father John ,mother Joan in Cadoxton Juxta Barry. christened July 23rd !826.
No others.
but several other MILWARDS.
Lynne.
Can you glean from the information any of the following
1) Denomination - given the original in Welsh I suspect Annibynwyr
(Independent), Bedyddwyr (Baptist) or Methodistaid Calfinaidd (Calvinistic
Methodists).
2) The name of any chapel or location where he was minister
3) Any mention of his training at a college such as Trefecca ?
Do you mean Sully, near Barry?
Any of those might help us to help you.
If you are able to copy any significant puzzling parts of the text, in
Welsh, to the list we may well be able to assist.
I can't find any mention in the 'Cambrian Index' at
www.swansea.gov.uk/cambrian , though there are a few (113) other MILLWARD
entries, and some for alternative spellings.

A huge 'thank you' to Glamorgan rootsweb subscriber Helen (HMC) who has offered wonderful help in tracing my ggg grandmother Mary BEVAN and my ggg grandfather George HARRIS, both of Porteynon/Penrice. In fact she found me not just one, but two possibles for each, and now, also thanks to Helen, I think I am definitely making progress towards identifying the right ones!
Thanks also to Graham for maps etc and further offers of help.
Glamorgan rootsweb subscribers are the friendliest and most helpful I've come across. Penny.
My grandfather, the Rev. Evan Olwern Evans died in 1910 as a result of an accident. He was pastor of Moriah Welsh Congregationalist Church, Bedlinog. The Merthyr Express of 10 Sep 1910 reported his death and finished the article about him by saying "The deceased gentleman was a staunch Radical, and he took an active part in both local and Parliamentary elections."
I wonder what he did in these elections. (I presume Radical means Liberal.) How may I find out more about my grandfather's political activities? It would be great to find a record of a speech of his, but, local newspapers aside, did the local Parties keep records?
