Hi All,
I have made the journey to Newport Library today, which is rare for me because always
seems to be working.
However I found what I was looking for quickly, for a change, I thought all I would look
at the 1901 census returns for the areas that interest me. It seems that you have to ask
for the fiche at the counter because someone has been stealing them and you guessed it,
the fiche I wanted had gone.
The fiche in question is not a for part of a town but for some rather small villages in
the lower Usk valley
Bullmore and Kemeys Inferior. RG13/4953 25/27. It would be nice to the think that it was
an oversight on behalf of the last user but I'm afraid I have my doubts, more like
it's a selfish individual who thinks nobody is
researching their family history but them.
So keep a lookout everybody for Fiche that people might have got bored with as the
Librarian informs me that
BMD fiche have walked as well. I know that people buy and own fiche for their research but
you will all have
to decide if you are offered any fiche if they are legal or not.
