Glamorganshire / Morgan family of Zoar Chapel, Bonvilston
« on: Friday 22 March 13 00:02 GMT (UK) »
Hello,
My great-great grandparents, Daniel Morgan and Catherine Matthews Morgan are buried in the churchyard at Zoar Chapel, Bonvilston. Their son Lewis (b. 1867) was my great grandfather, who came to America in 1892 with his wife Annie Edwards, after working at Cymmer Colliery. I believe that Catherine's sister Sarah Matthews married John Morgan (Ioan Trithyd). I have been told that the Morgan family that Daniel came from was not closely related, if at all, to that of John Morgan, Can anyone confirm that?
We are planning a visit in late May and hope to visit some of the places connected with the family, so any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks
