Hi ParcMeurig,
Thank you for your post.
My great grandmother was the sister of David Evans, the father of the Evans sisters who you presumably bought the house from. Therefore the owner of the shop was the aunt of the sisters and the sister of David.
Incidentally, it its quite confusing because David (known as David David Evans) is the son of David Evans Sr and his mother was also Sarah.
We came to Bethesda several years ago on a visit and the owner of the house kindly let us see the house although I can't remember whether this was number 7 or 8 as they owned both at one time.
I don't know whether it was you who showed us the house but if so, we really appreciated it and it was a very special visit down memory lane. My only regret is that I didn't take any photos. I have looked on Google map and can see these houses, it looks as though number 7 is the last one in the row and then number 8 is sideways on to the road?
We hope to visit the area sometime again in the future with the purpose of visiting the graveyards to see whether we can get any more information from that source.
Thank you again for your help.
A James
