Cornwall / Cornish seamen
« on: Wednesday 25 January 23 20:16 GMT (UK) »
hi,
I've come across some family who moved to Cornwall and became variously *coastguards * Royal Navy personnel *master mariners.
Could some kind soul point me in the direction of a Cornish seaman's list or somesuch? If it exists?
Although I'm used to dealing with Welsh mariners, Cornwall is new territory for me......
many thanks Elaine

I'm afraid I have no insights - but this is a fascinating puzzle!

Berea cemetery.
A few years ago, I photographed all the graves at the cemetery.
If anyone would like a photo, let me know?

Glamorganshire / Llangiwg addresses for John and Jane Owen
« on: Saturday 10 April 21 21:17 BST (UK) »
I am getting totally confused by the addresses for John and Jane Owen in the censuses for Llangiwg -
1841- district 8 - 'Pantycelyn'
1851- district 16 - 'Pantygylynen'
1861- district 17 - ditto
1871- district 17 - 'Mynydd Bach'
...and yet, going by the other people/houses around them, the house seems to be the same one....
Does anyone have any local knowledge to shed on this, please?
in confusion, Elaine!

Pembrokeshire / William Lewis of Clegyr, St Davids, died 1822

Just posting an information note here:
The will of William Lewis is in the National Library of Wales collection - but [like others I've found] is mis-filed - this one is under 'Jane Griffiths died 1823'
Hope this helps somebody find his will!
