For those whose ancestors had a nautical persuasion:
-----------
Today the Welsh mariners website is being launched. It was designed by
Nigel Callaghan, whose Llangynfelyn site is an excellent record of the
parish's history.
The Welsh mariners website includes a searchable database of over 17,000
Welsh born (or Wales resident) Master mariners, mates and engineers who
held certificates of competency or service.
In practice it is an index of men active from 1850 to 1945 in the
merchant navy. We hope this will be a valuable resource to family and
local historians.
It can be seen at
