Dear all
I an researching the DAVIES family which I have so far traced to Llansilin ,
and have found them (I think ) on the 1881 cencus living in an area known as
BRIW. This ties in with what some of the family have remembered so I am as
sure as I can be that I may be on the right trail.
Can anyone help me identify where BRIW was , all I can find is a reference
to a Wesley Chapel, but after looking at an old map there was more than one
chapel?
Thanks
Hilary in Gloucestershire
