Glamorganshire / Re: Address on death certificate
« on: Sunday 21 March 21 01:45 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you all so much, it does look like Kendon Row.  When I first looked at it, the first letter looked like an 'F' but now I see it is a 'K'.   And Cefndon could be correct.  Thanks all.

Glamorganshire / Address on death certificate
« on: Saturday 20 March 21 12:00 GMT (UK)  »
Can anyone transcribe the addresses shown on the attached Death certificate?  It look like the deceased and the informant (grandmother and grandson) lived next door to each other in the same street, but I can read the name of the street.
Thanks for any help.

Thanks all.  It looks like they're not available on line - at least, not yet!

Glamorganshire / Zoar Chapel Neath
« on: Wednesday 16 December 20 04:15 GMT (UK)  »
Hello, can anyone direct me to a site where I can view the original parish records for the Zoar Chapel in Neath?  In particular, for the period around 1856.

I have a marriage certificate (attached) which I think shows 'Zoar Chapel Neath' as the location for my ancestors' marriage, but it also says that the Minister's name was John Matthews.  According to what I have read, the Minister at the time was Charles Williams (1853-1888).   

Thank you in anticipation.

Hello,

Is anyone able to do a look up for me for a wedding in Jan-Mar 1923 in Southampton?   

The groom was Spencer / Stewart McNeil, and the bride was Janet Scott. 

I am particularly looking for Janet Scott's parent's names if recorded.

Thank you for any assistance.

Louth / Workhouse records
« on: Wednesday 19 February 20 06:51 GMT (UK)  »
Are the records of any of the workhouses in Louth available on line?

My ancestor from Dunleer came to Australia as a famine orphan, and I would like to check the Minute Books and/or admission registers of the closest workhouses to see if they contain any references to girls being despatched to Australia.

Thanks for any assistance.

Glamorganshire / Re: William DAVIES, Treorchy 1911

Wow, this is all great, thank you so much. I'll have a look at those entries and see what I can make of them.

Of course, other possibilities are:
1. When my great uncle Norm wrote "Uncle Billie Davies' place" he might have been referring to the house that Billie had lived in before he died and that his family still live in;   
2. Billie might have moved between the 1911 census and the Norm's visit in 1919;
3. Billie not be Norm's uncle, but another relative who they called Uncle. I think this is less likely because Norm's grandmother was the one who emigrated to Australia and she kept in touch with the family. So its most likely to be her brother that they would call "Uncle Billie Davies".

Thanks again, and I'll get sleuthing.
