Dear Eirwen,
The 13th October 1944 issue of the Glamorgan Gazette carried the following
obituary:_
"Late Mr. John Morgan.
The funeral took place last week at Pwllypant Cemetery of Mr. John Morgan,
13, Llewellyn Street, Ogmore Vale.
Deceased who was 76years of age was a native of Pontypridd but had resided
at Ogmore Vale for the past 50 years.
Rev. C.A. Davies officiated and the chief mourners included Mr.and
Mrs.T.Morgan, Mr. and Mrs. H. Morgan, Mr. and Mrs. E. Morgan, Mrs. Idris
Morgan(sons and daughters-in-law) Mr. and Mrs. E.Canlan, Madam E. Gomer
Lewis (son-in-law and daughters)"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
You probably know that Madam Gomer was a concert singer and carried the
unofficial title of "Madam" - the convention of those days! Her husband was
Sgt.Gomer Lewis of the Glamorgan Constabulary who was the "Colliery Sgt." Of
Penllwyngwent Colliery.
Best wishes,
Bert Jones.
