Gwenllian Richard
« on: Monday 02 April 18 15:28 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find the birth of Gwenllian Richard around 1728. I have found her marriage to David Lewis in 1750 in Llantwint Juxta Neath and her parish is listed as Lanouge I cannot find this place anywhere. Any help greatly appreciated

the marriage in Llantwit juxta Neath shows that Gwenllian was of Llanguge which I suspect is Llangiwg/Llanguicke

There's a baptism for Gwenllian Richard in Llangiwg 4 June 1728 but no parents given, it's the same for all the other baptisms on that page.

Thank you for that I have spent ages looking for LLanguge, not being a native to Wales. That's the birth I have found but disappointed it didn't give her parents names. I am having fun finding 5 generations of David Lewis's all from Glamorgan!
