I am planning to visit Mountain Ash and surrounding area in a few weeks time.  My great grandparents lived there in the late 1800s and early 1900s.  I know it is probably very optimistic to think I might be able to find where they are buried but I would like to try.  I have found a newspaper report of my gr grandfather's funeral which suggests he was buried in Caegarw Cemetery in 1917.  His wife died in 1915 so I guess she is probably there too.  Does anyone know anything about the cemetery please - is it enormous?  Is there any way of finding out where they were buried?  Any hints of good places to go to learn about history of this area?  (I did find a phone number on the council website for cemeteries but have a phone phobia and would rather email if at all possible!)  Thanks

Is there anywhere online where the Kidderminster parish records are available? I am hoping to find a baptism record for Eliza Hiles (Hailes) or marriage record for her and Richard Giles.

My great grandfather, James Williams was born in Tremain, Cardiganshire in 1868. I have found him on all the census records and his parents seem to be David Williams (1839, St Mary Cardigan) and Eleanor (1840). Is researching David Williams in Cardiganshire just a lost cause? Any tips please? Thank you

Using online resources my husband and I have both gone back to the 1841 census on all our direct lines, although admittedly could do with ordering a few certificates to confirm some people, but that aside we are now stuck on what to do next?  Looking on Familysearch there are some births and marriages which look possible to go back a couple more generations on some families but how can they be confirmed?  If we were to travel to a local records office to view baptism and marriage records (and other records?) would we actually be any further on?  How is it possible to confirm you have the correct families? Where do we go next?
