Hi Nick

thanks for the advice. I had a feeling that they would not show on the electoral role's but thought i would check anyway.

I am going to email the museum, just on the off chance they have something.

Many thanks Gem x

Armed Forces / Military in Margom, Port Talbot
« on: Friday 10 September 10 09:31 BST (UK)  »
Hi

Could someone please point me in the direction of where to find any military batallions ect that were posted to Margam / attached to Port Talbot.

So far i can only find the volunteers who were grouped up in the late 1850's/ early 1860's who were rallied in the threat of a French invasion.

Many thanks

The Common Room / 1940's -were visiting u.s military on any lists?
« on: Friday 10 September 10 09:21 BST (UK)  »
Hi

Sorry for the random heading  :)

In the 1940's many injured US soldiers were in England - and put in some of the lovely old houses that were acquisitioned by HM Forces to use as re-couperation for allied troops.

I was wondering if these men would show up on any lists at all !. Really desperate to find men stationed at Margam Castle. I have put this question to the common room , as i thought that if there is an answer to this question then it may help other people with their family research to.
