Wales / Family Bible inscription -Please can anyone translate this from the Welsh?

Hi everyone,
Do we have any Welsh speakers who would help please?  I have tried translating it using Google but have failed miserably. It's an inscription in a Family Bible. Thanks so much x

Hi Lloydy,

I've just seen that you looked in your book and found two names for me - thanks very much for doing so.  It's much appreciated.  Sorry I've only just noticed your reply - shame on me for not being on the forum for so long!

Best wishes

Hi Lloydy,

I know that this thread is quite old, but hope that you still may be able to help.....  I'm looking for details of any Pryce boys from Llanidloes, who fought in WW1.

Thank you!

Cork / Re: Regiments in New Barracks, Fermoy,County Cork,1885.

Hi Patrick,

I have searched all Armed Forces Marriages from 1880-1885 and would have thought that it would have been recorded there but no luck, sorry.

I also checked all the marine, consular and army birth lists and found no births for Wigglesworths for the period 1882 - 1900.

Hope you find what you're looking for.

Isle of Man / Re: Does anyone know a house called 'Corrin' in Castletown?

Thank you both for the information.  I emailed the IOM posties too!  They are working on it and so far have said the same - the Corrin name was probably the name of the people living there.  I'll let you know..... 

I think that the photo was taken about 1922 so maybe the Corrin's had left by that stage or maybe had arrived between 1901 (your look up, Voirrey - thanks!) and 1922.  I'll await the 1911 census as you suggest, Frances.

Thanks again for your help,

Tulip

Isle of Man / Does anyone know a house called 'Corrin' in Castletown?
« on: Friday 06 February 09 01:08 GMT (UK)  »
My grandmother used to holiday with family who lived in Castletown.  Her parents came from there and their relatives all lived in Malew and Marown.  I'm hoping that someone may be able to shed light on where they lived.  In the photo Ida is standing in the path of her grandparent's home, next to a house called 'Corrin'.  Does anyone recognise where this house is?




Thanks

Hi Sarah,

That is SO sad to see the graveyard in such a state.  Methinks there'll be some other motive behind it all-  like the council trying to say after a while that no one cares about it, so they may as well use it for building........

What do you think? 

My ancestors, as you know, are buried there.  It was so good to receive photos from you of their graves. 

I am bemused that no one has taken over the care of the graveyard.  Surely the council has some responsibility by law?  Or if not, then whoever owns the land I bet has signed some agreement that it is looked after...... or am I just wishing??

Thanks again Sarah for taking time and great care in sending those superb photos.  You are a star!

Chris
