Tredegar at that time was in Bedwellty parish, Monmouthshire.
http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/wal/MON/Bedwellty/ describes the area.
Tredegar lies near the top of the head of the Sirhowy valley, near the
modern Heads of the Valleys road. Some northern parts of Tredegar ,
including Dukestown and Trefil, were in Llangynidr parish in Breconshire

even though Llangynidr was a long way up and over the mountains.

Subject: [GLA] Matilda NEWMAN
Thanks everyone for your help with the censuses. I am really looking
for info about baptism of Matilda about 1817 Tredegar GLA. Anyone
able to help with this. I live in West Sussex, so can't get to the
NLW. LDS centre in Hyde Park do not seem to have early records for
Tredegar. Shame, Matilda NEWMAN should be reasonably easy to track,
if you are looking in the right parish!
