Ferndale & Blaenllechau

[eirwen]

Looking for the marriage of David Mathews and Sarah. Davies believe around 1910 and 1930. They had 3 children ,Glanville, Muriel and William. Told they lived at one time Long Row Blaenllechau. So far have not located marriage of Sarah or birth records of the children. Sarah was a member of a chapel in the area ,but no idea which one. Any help would be gratefully appreciated in my research. Regards Eirwen.

Hi Heddwch. The Murial and William might be mine. The David in question is the name of the father. His wife Sarah Edith was born 1891 and my late mother Eirwen her sister was the last born 1903 So the David you located would not be of right age, Did you by any chance see if you could locate the marriage of David and Sarah. Regards Eirwen
