Hi Bodger

Llanidloes was a sub-district of Newtown for Registration purposes, so yes!

Good one then 

I've been to Llanidloes a few times in me yuff - a nice small town as I remember it.

I think they had a football team!

They certainly did have a football team, and still do!!!!!!

I venture to Llanidloes quite often to visit my Uncle, Aunty and other relations who still live there.  Dad still calls the town "home", and I love going there because the people are really friendly. 

Of course the highlight of my visit is being able to walk round the Dolhafren Cemetery taking photos of gravestones   Love it!!!!!

Bodger.........which family are you researching from Llani?

Looking for Bradbury, my step father was William Eric Bradbury, 1908 / 52, i know he is buried in Llanidloes along with his first wife, she died a few years before him, not sure when or where, so difficult to trace, i do know her name was on the same headstone, but at the time, 50 yrs. ago, of me seeing it i had no interest in genealogy, has anyone access to cemetery records there who could give me a clue to her first name, and when she was buried, at the time of her death they lived at :- The Victoria Inn, Hepworth, Nr. Huddersfield, not sure where a death would be recorded, but if she died in hospital it would be likely to be in Barnsley, i know when Eric married my mother it is recorded as Staincross, i think that is a Barnsley area. Any help in identifying his 1st wife would be welcome. bodger
