Still stuck on the Dodd's have been told a brother and sister came over some where between 1740 and 1790 and went to a place called Gellirhydd north Gwenddwr possible as servants Have you seen that any where.
Thanks Acer,

Hi Mandy

Thanks for that I already have pictures of the graves in Gwenddwr Chapel. I need to go to Bailyheulog when the weather improves as there are a few of the Dodd family there.

Hi Mev

In the book Hills and Sunny Pastures written by Erwood Women's Institute  there is a picture of John Dodd on horseback with his two granddaughters. Probably fits in with your research somewhere.  Its a great book full of information and pictures of Erwood and all the surrounding parishes.
I have come across the name Dodd  frequently in Gwenddwr on gravestones, while I have been trying to untangle the dozens of Griffiths  family members, which i have been researching.

Hi Mandy

It is a good book. My G Grandfather Samuel Evans and his father Evan are both in the book. I have a Griffiths family in my tree don't know if it ties in with yours.
William T Griffiths born abt 1851 married Mary Ann Bowcott & they had 7 children - Mary Jane, William T, Eleanor A M, Clara E, David John, Laura Ann M & Edgar B.

Hi
William Griffiths was the son of Thomas Griffiths of the Gurnos, Gwenddwr. Thomas was a brother to my ancestor John Griffiths b. 1805. John married Elinor Davies in 1829. I am descended from their son David a few generations down the tree!

Hi Mandy

My link is through the Bowcott side. Mary Ann's Grandfather was William Bowcott of Vron, Gwenddwr and his daughter Mary who married David Davies was my GGG Grandmother
