Hello Eunice,
In my surname index of the Baptism Register of St. David's Parish Church,
Llanfaes, Brecon from the 1st January 1813 to 24th December 1899, I have 11
entries for the surname DRINKWATER, occupation Butcher.
4 are for the children of John & Elizabeth DRINKWATER and
7 are for the children of William & Gwenllian DRINKWATER.
in 8 of the entries I also have their dates of birth.
Are these of any interest to you?
Regards,
Glyndwr (Glyn) Davies,
Chatham, Kent, UK.

G'day again Dawn
I don't know, of course, whether my area of interest has been covered or
not, and in fact I don't even know which area I need, as I have only been
to Wales once, and that was with my Dad going to Cardiff and Whitchurch to
see his sister, but his grandfather came from Brecon, and his father was
born in Black Boy Brecon, but beyond that I am only just finding links,
which all seem to lead to Brecon, his mother's family also came from
Brecon, they were butchers named DRINKWATER, so it looks as though Brecon
Cheers for now
