Fairfield was occupied by the Hamlen Williams family in late 19th Century. They were a well known philanthropic family in the Pontypridd area
Kellys Directory 1901 shows Theophilus Richards Hamlen Williams as occupier.

Dave,

Theophilus Richards, would he be connected to Birmingham by any chance. I'm trying to connect this family to Wales.

Regards

Phil

Hi Phil :)

I imagine that you may be looking for a connection with Westley Richards? That would be interesting :)

Thanks Tricia, I have that, i'm more interested in Thomas. I saw one of the replies quoting Theophilus Richards and thought you were following the same family.

Good luck with it Phil.
I don't know what connection my family had with this one - if any.
(I'm from Birmingham, myself :)  )

Hello Heddwch  :)

Thank you very much for passing on that information.

I shall have to look into Elizabeth and her family and see if I can find a relationship to my ancestors :)

Lovely.

Very sorry for the late reply.

That's a great photo. Thank you. :)
Now I just need to work out what our link was with the house or its inhabitants.

My Mum's late cousin phoned her one day and I chatted to him, briefly, about his family memories. That was when he said that there was a connection with 'Fairfield'. And that's all I know. :(
