No Harold, the Welsh way of spelling 'Festiniog' is
Ffestiniog. We do not
have a letter J in our alphabet. I think what you have is a spelling
mistake!

> Hello Listers
> I have a photograph of my great grandmother Margaret Foulkes taken in
1871. She is dressed in all her finery and the photograph appears to have
been taken in a studio.
> On the back of the photograph is the photographers stamp, J Hughes,
Photographic Van, Jestiniog.
> Since I've been searching for this lady for many years, am I correct in
assuming Jestiniog is perhaps the Welsh way of spelling Festiniog? What
was
a photographic van?
