I've just signed back on after spending some time working on other lines.
Here's my lines that emigrated from Monmouthshire:
Samuel ROWLANDS b circa 1837 Abergavenny Gwent
father's name John-no further info on him
Samuel ROWLANDS
married 9 June 1860 at Parish Church Nantyglo
Samuel was living Gainfach or Ganfach
Rebecca POWELL b circa 1842 Nantyglo
their son John Samuel ROWLANDS b 1862 Aberystruth, Bedwellty
This family left Wales after 1862 & was in the US before 1873 & settled in
Conamaugh, Cambria Co PA. Samuel was a miner in Wales & went to PA to care
for the mine mules.
I'd be interested in finding anyone researching this line.
Also what is Gainfach or Ganfach-is this a farm?
Any ideas about getting this family back another generation?
Thanks
Linda
