Thanks for putting that link on here - it makes fascinating reading.  The photos are amazingly clear. Haven't found any ancestors on it yet though!

A fascinating insight into the social history at the turn of the century.   I was surprised by the high percentage of convictions of people born outside Cardiganshire.   I too have not recognised any familiar faces.
