Langwelach

[Dannemois]

Anyone know where the place Langwelach, Glamorgan is situated? 

[Pejic]

Any chance?
Llangyfelach is a village located in the City and County of Swansea, Wales. Llangyfelach is situated about 4 miles north of the centre of Swansea.

I would say it was probably Llangyfelach also..

Do you have a source we could look at, or post a snippet

snippet from the Cambrian 17 Mar 1804

Obviously not conclusive,but there is an 1776 baptism of a William Evan in Llangyfelach.

Hi Roy,
google books link below and then search inside with Langwelach
https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=cdErAAAAYAAJ
says that Glamorgan was divided into 10 hundreds (of which Langwelach was one) and then 118 parishes

Familysearch, spells the hundred as Llangyfelach
https://familysearch.org/wiki/en/Glamorgan_Hundreds
made up of the following parishes
Llangiwg, Llangyfelach, Llanrhidian, Llansamlet

Hi Mar
I googled Langwelach and came up with the same snippet; I tried posting it but for some reason it failed, not sure why. 

Thanks to all who posted a reply.

Regards Roy

The cuttings reminded me immediately of a very well-known Welsh folk song dating from this period called 'Ffarwel i Langyfelach lon' (Farewell to happy Llangyfelach) which relates the unhappy experience of a young man persuaded to enlist. Google provides more details.
