Hi everyone,
I have been looking through information on my Hamer ancestors which was sent to me some
time ago by the late Dorrie Carver who was considered the expert on the Hamer families in
mid Wales. An Abraham Hamer who lived at Pabpllwyd, Llanbadarn Fynydd, Radnorshire was
the brother to Richard and John who were both my 6 x great grandfathers (Richard's son
Abraham married his first cousin Sarah the daughter of John). Descendants of Abraham of
Pabpllwyd lived at Cantal, Llanbister, Radnorshire and Pantpoeth, Llandinam,
Montgomeryshire. Abraham's grandson Richard became Vicar of Beguildy. I have not done
much research on Abraham's descendants and would like to know more about them.
I have mainly researched the family of Richard Hamer and have little on the descendants of
John his brother who died intestate at the Cwm, Llandinam in 1771. Other siblings of
Richard, John and Abraham were Margaret, Abel, Sarah and Henry and their parents were
Abraham and Sarah (surname unknown) Hamer. This Abraham was born c1654 in Llandinam and
died there on the 15th July, 1716
I would be delighted to hear from anyone with connections to these Hamers.
Regards,
Margaret Harvey
