Hi Aumau, Just out of interest where is the Lewis of Green Meadow situated, and is Greenmeadow a Farm ?? Regards Rowley

hi rowley,
Lewis was the surname of a family living in the greenmeadow area of Whitchurch.Glamorgan.Wales.
Whether their land or farm was called greenmeadow i do not know .I know that they were wealthy landowners.
My ancestors niece married a Henry lewis who was one of seven children of Henry Lewis.

Hi aumau

I did a Rootschat search for Lewis + Greenmeadow and only found your other thread:

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,229510.0.html

When did you see this thread?  If you search on Lewis + Whitchurch there are lots of threads on Rootschat, but I cannot say which is the one you were thinking of.

kind regards, Arranroots

Hi arranroots,
These were old postings 1998 to 2001 which i found fidling around with the computer yesterday.
Dont remember how i manage to get to them,but i found them.I think i clicked on  mailing lists and got through to them.
What is your interest??Any connection to the leiws`s??
thanks.
p.s. they were under the heading of" Lewis of greenmeadow."

Ah, I misunderstood - Rootschat was not going then, so they were not posted here!

I don't have any personal link with LEWIS (other than friends!) just trying to be helpful.  My own interests are posted below and they include some in Glamorgan.  I am not even sure where Greenmeadow is, to be honest!

kind regards, Arranroots

Hi Aumau, Yes I do have a  Lewis family in my tree, my uncle Oliver Lewis b 1894 in the Gelligaer area, after marriage he lived in Pengam Glam, and the Greenmeadow farm was just outside the village, so no connection there, thanks anyway, regards Rowley

Hi Rowley,
Thanks.
I had someone else on this board asking whether greenmeadow was a farm.Being from s.a. and never having been to wales i have no idea whether it was the area called greenmeadow or a large farm called greenmeadow.
Can you enlighten me??
thanks.
Aumau
