Thanks for the information.
I was able, after a considerable time, to get Edwin's death certificate and found out he had died at 19 Kings Avenue on the 7th Dec.1938.I wasn't aware,however, that he was exhumed before being buried at Llantillio Pertholy Church as I am unable to find a record although his name is on the headstone with others of his family {William,Sarah,Edwin,Mary Hanah and their daughter Hilda.It was also of interest that he married Mary at St Michaels Church Abergavenny which is a Roman Catholic church even though her background suggests she was a Baptist.

Many thanks indeed for the restoration.I do appreciate the time and effort this takes particularly in view of the very poor quality original.

Thanks again.

Most grateful to you both for the restoration.The photo of an uncle of mine has been discovered only recently.Tragically he was killed when the Aircraft carrier ,HMS Glorious, was torpedoed in 1940.

Thanks again.

Monmouthshire / Monmouthshire Home Guard

I am trying to trace R.J.Pritchard who,I understand, was a member of the home guard at Abergavenny during the 2nd world war. Are there any records available that I can access on line please.

Hi Horrell.  Many thanks for that.  Yes, Robert was the elder brother.In the 1891 census he is shown as being 11 years old and Edwin John 8.Mable is also shown as an 6 year old.
In the 1901 census Robert is not listed[possible had left home] but Mabel is shown as an 17 year old and working as a domestic servant.

Thanks for the info on Admiral Blake.Hadn't heard of this but see from google that he was quite a prominent figure and if it is the right one he has a museum dedicated to him in Bridgewater Somerset.

I have researched the Mably family back to the 16/17th century living in the Padstow area of Cornwall and a great number of them were buried in St Enodocs Church which is well worth a visit if your live near enough.

Incidentally we may have a royal connection!!!???.If you go to www.maberley.name/queen you will see the possible connection.[I always knew we had blue blood in our veins somewhere]!!??

Hope this helps.
