I am not the one who originally asked this question but my great grandparents, WILLIAM
JONES and RACHAEL OWEN were married by banns in the parish church of Llanhilleth in
September 1860 and I would be interested to see a photo of that church, too, if I knew for
sure which one it was.

Could you give the date of the wedding please? The "old"
parish church of Llanhilleth was St Illtyd's which is high
on the mountain above Llanhilleth. It is still there today
and there are some pictures and other information available
if you do a google search. After the end of the 19th
century, new churches were built and there is one at
Christchurch, Aberbeeg and also St Mark's in the centre of
Llanhilleth. Both were built around the turn of the 20th
century I believe.
Listers will be able to help you more if you can give
a date.
Best wishes
Jane Dyer.

I have received some welcome and very good information from
people on
this list. But I have a question on the marriage of my g
grandfather.
The marriage was solemnized at the Parish Church in the
Parish of
Llanhileth in the County of Monmouth. They were married
by James
Hughes, Rector. I found out that he was a well know
minister. Is this
the actual name of the church? I would like to find a
picture of it.
Thanks, Mary
