Carmarthenshire / Re: Mynydd Sylen Resolutions 1843 signatories map
« on: Friday 10 December 21 12:20 GMT (UK)  »
Gellihir is the only one close to Mynydd Sylen, being in the hamlet of Horeb, next to Felin Newydd. G/Cynheidre is the other on the western edge. The Berwick is in Bynea, Llanelli. Bryngwynmawr in Dafen/Felinfoel area. Bryngroesfach, Caerbigyn are Five Roads and Soho would be Furnace (5 miles from Sylen). It's an interesting mix.

Should also add that there is a house on the crossroads on Mynydd Sylen, off Bethel Road and opposite Mount Pleasant Farm.....it was called Croeslaw and was a "ty Unnos" (built in one night on common land and then became freehold), Ystodwen Farm is further up the road where some Edmunds family lived.
Also John Daniel is a signature on the marriage certificate....not many of that name in the area, my gg grandfather being one!

Glynhir is near Ponthenri (off B4309), there was a large house there, but in the late 1880's, a mine was sunk nearby. I believe this is near the Baltic Inn, Ponthenri.

Industrial Revolution opened new opportunities, so people moved, mine went from Llandybie to Llangyfelach and Bridgend. So it is possible.....there is a quote seen, stating that Wales had more immigration in the 1800 than USA!

Adulam Chapel Felinfoel was the favoured one for Baptists as it's the oldest in the area.

Carmarthenshire / Re: Llannon - Philpot family
« on: Monday 06 February 17 15:12 GMT (UK)  »
I've got stuck with Israel Philpott(1738-1793) and his father Robert (1700-1766). There are links to Coedcyw Mill and think a Philpott was the last miller of Felin Newydd, Horeb.
