Seen on the Glamorgan mailing list yesterday, but equally relevant to
research in Powys.

Subject: Bartrum's Welsh Pedigrees now online
In September a new set of data was published online at
http://histfam.familysearch.org/ which includes a database for Wales
titled,
"Wales: Medieval Records Primarily of Nobility and Gentry". The title is
a
bit misleading since there are individuals included from the mid
nineteenth
century.
You can access this well indexed and referenced data by clicking on the
"Advanced Search" link on the website listed above or go directly to
http://histfam.familysearch.org/searchform.php and in the "Tree" field
use
the drop down arrow and scroll to the bottom of the list for the Wales
database.
The Bartrum Genealogies form the base data set for this resource with
additional record sets added such as the Golden Grove material. Three
highlights of this database are the great record sets it is built from,
the
great search features, and the source documentation. The data is being
updated as time permits. Additions and corrections based on original
documents are accepted.
