Thanks, Ray.  It was very kind of you to do that for me.  I really appreciate it.

On the spreadsheet that Cas provided, my relatives are listed

Edward Owen grave number A492
Jane Owen grave number F99
Edward Thomas Owen grave number F24

Was it difficult to find the headstone? Do you know if the (very) different grave numbers means their graves are not near each other? Is there a map of the graveyard available somewhere?

Sorry for all the questions, my sister is visiting Wales from the USA next month and I think she will visit the churchyard.

Thanks again -

Ann

Pentwyn Churchyard, (St Marys) Fochriw. Following Mabel's find.

https://www.peoplescollection.wales/items/487246  spreadsheet, by surname listed in alphabetical order.  Edward Owen of address you gave is buried here and listed.

If problems viewing spreadsheet, click on Author name and scroll down to burial spreadsheet, seems to load better. You may find other family members!

Good luck,

Cas

Thank you very much for this, Cas.  I found Edward, and also, his wife Jane (my Grandmother’s grandmother) and their son, Edward Thomas.  Will have to decipher further to figure out if they are buried together, or in different locations. This is the first I have seen on the date of Jane’s death.  Perhaps I can visit the cemetery some day.

Thanks again, Ann

Glamorganshire / Pontlottyn burial inquiry
« on: Monday 27 August 18 18:25 BST (UK)  »
Hello,

I am trying to find where my grandmother’s grandfather was buried. I have found his burial record:

“Burials in the Parish of St Tyfaelog, Pontlottyn in the County of Glamorgan in the year 1896

Edward Owen 15 Victoria St Pontlottyn 45 yrs July 23”

I’ve read elsewhere on this forum that St Tyfaelog’s does not have a cemetery.  If anyone can point me in the right direction to get this information, I’d appreciate it. 

Thanks, Ann

Thanks, Morgan. That does appear to be the correct Victoria St and looks to me that it is in the Village of Pontlottyn.

You have my sympathies regarding viruses and the software that is supposed to deal with them.

I just sent a copy of the certificate - many thanks for your assistance.

Thank you very much Roy. Just to clarify things, I have been doing some add'l research since my original post.

-have found the Hannings in the 1911 census - in Ystrad Mynach
-by grandmother's birth cert shows her place of birth and mother's residence as 14 New Houses, Brithdir (my grandmother was born in January of 1909)
-the 1911 census shows my grandmother's sister born in Monmouth New Tredegar in 1907, and her eldest sister born in Pontlottyn in 1904
-the 1901 census lists my great grandmother Mary Jane Owens, her mother and brothers at 15 Victoria St in Brithdir
-the 1891 census lists great grandmother Mary Jane Owen (no s), her father, mother and brothers at 15 Victoria St in Pontlottyn.

15 Victoria must not be in Brithdir, as KGarrad says. Not sure why the 1901 census page would show Hamlet of Brithdir in the upper right corner though?

Sorry to blind you with details but a family member is in Ireland now and thinking of hopping over to Wales to visit the old ancestral home, so to speak ...and now not sure where to go!
