Hi Dave
You asked who was living at Blaencerdi in the 1850 - 59 era - my ancestor
Elizabeth Davies was born there in 1858 dau of Meredith Davies and Cymbriana
Pritchard.
Later on Elizabeth Davies married Thomas Probert and the Proberts were there
in the 1940s
Hope that this helps.
Angie
P.S. In the 1600s at the time of the Civil War Prince Charles was reputed to
have stopped there and asked for a drink - not sure if this was Blaencerdi
or Lower Blaencerdi but it was a Mary Bayliss who served him - and according
to Francis Kilvert the diarist she was an ancestor of the Pritchards - so
that name has been connected with the farm for a while if it is the same
family!
