 Hello,Llangadfan,  Indiana, I have researched the Davies family for many years. I have just had some info sent to me from the workhouse project Ref Rees Davies and his going to U S A. Lot of info concerning the family who left Wales. My Third G grandmother Jane Jones nee Davies married and stayed in the area .She was the daughter of Rees and his first wife Susannah Jones ( Pant Glass) Her Sister Margaret married at Llangadfan to John Lewis they also left Wales for U S A.I have the church records here for Llangadfan, Garthbeibio so just ask if you would like me to have a look at anything. Every best wish G

We are traveling to Wales in June.  We are connected to this family through Margaret Davies, b. 1784, Blaencowney, Wales.  She is my GGGgrandmother. I'm having trouble finding Blaencowney on any maps.  Could you tell me where it is or was.  We're travel from the US and I would like to find this location to see if we would be near there.  Thank you for any help you might have.  Cheryl
