No I haven't. Thanks for that suggestion.

Dear Listers,
I wonder if anyone can assist me.
I was recently sent a photo of my husband's great grandfather John Newbery
who was one of the many miners killed in 1878 at Abercarn.
This photograph contains images of 22 miners Members of Courts 3040. The
backing paper has the name of Dando and Sons, Newport who I assume took or
arranged the photos. I do not know the significance of the term Courts 3040.
John's brother-in -law Thomas Nelmes and his brother Charles Nelmes were
both victims of the same disaster. They are not on this photo but I wonder
if the page I've been sent is part of a larger folio of photos of miners
killed in this disaster. As the photo has come to me by a circuitous route
I'm not able to ascertain where it was obtained and if there are other
similar photos. it would be nice to have a photo of the Nelmes men.
If anyone can help point me in the right direction I would be grateful.
Best wishes,
mary
