Hello,

If anyone is near Brynmenyn could you please have a look in the graveyard for William Jenkins died 15 Mar 1945 also his wife Elizabeth Jenkins died 24 Aug 1911.

I would like to know if they are still buried there.

Thank you

Hi

We were in the chatroom a couple of weeks ago and you mentioned the Jenkins family to me. I`m sorry to be so long in catching up with you.
What I was going to say was that my husband`s family are from Treorchy. I have not researched any of them , but we do have some original certificates which I will get out and send you the information if it is of any help to you.

Betharan Congregational is now a private residence, I was that way today so checked grave yard.

Both William and Elizabeth are buried there together.

Hello west,

Thank you so much, are they by any chance near to an angel.
 I know it may sound a bit silly but when I was young my father always used to say theres the angel wave to grandad as we passed.

Best wishes

Hello Kaye.

Yes there is a large monumental grave behind their plot which from memory contained angels.

I did take a photo so if you would like to see it please PM me with email details.
