Hi All,
For those that attended tonights meeting, you missed a large
box of information that someone from the Berwyn had left on our table?!?!?
Barbara and Maisie noticed it as we were leaving and I have been through
it tonight.
Most is technicla library information, however there are lots of
Newspaper snippets and several sheets of facts/ghistories, mainly of
Nantymoel and a fair bit on the Berwyn itself, which may be enough for
an article for J2010.....
More interestingly is that there are approx. 15 images from the 1977
"Jubilee Series" again mainly of Nantymoel, but even Ogmore and
Pantyrawel covered, where Ogwr Borough Council went around the Valley
photographing what they though was interesting.......
There has to be more missing as we have seen a lot from Ogmore, but very
few from nantymoel until tonight, or Lewostown Pantyrawel or the
Wyndham?!?!?
looking good already for articles for next year, potential Articles
(with some already completed).......
A Tale of Coal
The Catholic Church in Ogmore
The life of Dr. Richard Thoams Bevan
The Nantymoel Level
Colonel William James Cranston, OBE, DSO
Rhondda Main Colliers (1914-1918)
Ocean Western Colliers (1905)
Still plenty of room for more articles, so get your thinking caps on,
only 1 year left before publication :-)
